My Pledges for Winning back Whoberley



Protect our local environment so that we become more proud of our area. The Conservatives have tried to ignore local people, with intrusive bus lanes through the beauty of Hearsall Common. They have presided over drift regarding the derelict eyesore of the historic Watchmakers building. Litter remains a constant problem on our streets, green spaces, and streams. I intend to bring new energy and action on these issues so important to our wellbeing.

Challenge Anti Social behaviour. Residents are tired of underage drinking, nuisance fireworks, illegal bonfires, and obstructive non resident parking. Existing powers should be enforced more effectively, and I will act to provide full support to the police. A Labour council is committed to more community police in your area. I will also work closely with Geoffrey Robinson MP, fighting hard for our fair share of funding to ensure young people have exciting activities outside of school.

Improve our council services by pursuing an open and honest approach. If people are listened to in the first instance, the council can respond to resident’s needs rather than pursuing unwanted expensive new projects. The current Conservative Council has plunged Coventry into a deficit of millions, risking our basic services. I will endeavour to use all my effort tailoring services to the needs of residents and getting the very best value for our money.

Bally,
You do seem to have some good ideas and I wish you luck. I have never voted labour before but there is always a first time.

Keep up the good work
