Dear Voter,
I wish to introduce myself as the Labour party candidate for the forthcoming Sedgemoor District
Council by-election.
Council by-election.
Before moving to Bridgwater I lived in Chilton Polden for 27 years and have continued to
maintain an attachment and interest in the everyday life of the Polden communities, which is
why I was selected for the Woolavington seat. If elected I will make the following promises :-
I will, to the best of my ability, continue the good work that was being done by
your previous Labour councillor Roger Lavers.
I will be a pro active councillor making myself easily accessible to all.
By keeping in close contact with the Parish Council and utilising information
centres such as the Polden Post, I will keep everyone informed of any
important issues particularly those that could affect the village.
Tory/Lib Dem cuts will soon be biting and communities such as Woolavington
will be targeted and therefore need the strongest possible voices in their
support.
I promise the people of Woolavington that I will be
that voice.
Whilst some people in Woolavington will remember me as their school bus driver I
am also active in many local campaigns that benefit ordinary working people and
families. This included the fight to keep the Splash after the Conservative led
Sedgemoor District Council, without proper consultation, reneged on their promise
to make every effort to keep it open until a new pool could be built. I believe there
were ways it could have been saved and I therefore protested frequently to both
the Council and our MP about its demolition. I also joined the action group
Bridgwater Forward who like the Labour group are still campaigning for town
centre swimming and not the building of yet another supermarket.
We now desperately need a council that listens to the people, consults and acts
fairly.
