Dear Friends and Neighbours, Soon many of you will be receiving your postal vote ballots for the upcoming local elections.

Full statement

✉️ When casting your vote, I want you to ask yourself one simple question. Do the Tories deserve your vote?🤔 Over the last 13 years, they have failed us in every single conceivable way. They have cut out city’s budget to a shoestring. They have raised our taxes to the highest levels in living memory. They have failed to control the cost of living. They have broken our NHS, and they have failed to control our borders. Despite all this, our city has endured. We have the lowest council tax in the Northeast and our local economy is seeing a boom, with new buildings being erected all over the city. I have spent the last two years working extremely hard to improve our area, I have reported dozens of potholes and fly-tipping incidents a week and I have volunteered in warm spaces and have seen first-hand the effects of austerity.💪 If elected, I will fight to: 🔴 Keep our council tax the lowest in the Northeast. 🔴 Keep free pest control. 🔴 Keep free bulky waste collections. The conservatives locally are in disarray with one of their own sitting Barnes councillors becoming disillusioned and leaving them. Another conservative councillor won’t make a difference here in Barnes Ward. 🌹🌹🌹
