Local people, local politics, local power

I am grateful to the Conservative Party that provided me with enjoyable opportunities to serve communities and also to the Association that selected me to represent residents who later elected me, to do a job, and I shall continue to do everything I am able to do my job, as a local councillor, loyally.

The Localism Bill starts a new era of people power, new rights for communities which will protect and transform local services, breaking about the old system with a massive transfer for power.

Perhaps within the ground breaking shifts of power that provide opportunities to restore civic pride, democratic accountability and economic growth:  see this government guide to the case for decentralisation.

We can be as bold, radical and as ambitious as WE want.  This is a once in a generation chance to CHANGE LOCAL POLITICS for the better.

Let US get on with it!
