INDEPENDENT CONSIDERS JOINING MP RACE
Sooner or later there is going to be a general election.
At such a high level of politics, what choice do we have -
The Telford and Wrekin Constituency is well looked after in the hands of
MP Pritchard
And it really makes no difference who Labour put up against him, they will always be considered second best after Alison Wedgewood pulled out.
The Telford Constituency has been served by Labour, unfortunately, the word well cannot be used.
I am now giving serious consideration to giving the residents of Telford another choice, but most importantly, a choice that makes his views clear and will not sit on a fence, but someone who often gets results, like it or not, it’s a fact.
Who better to represent the residents of Telford than a “bog standard” resident.
Is the thought of me standing in a general election going to go down well?
Probably not and probably not with quite a few Labourites who have made a good living not really doing a great deal, the most recent proof of this is
Sutton Hill
Where was the Telford MP for that, I don’t know, but he certainly was not representing the residents and has still not said anything.
If nothing else, you know exactly where I stand
I would love to see a huge Quango Bonfire
Someone held to account for the lack of Social Housing
MP’s and Councillors Allowances slashed
Residents having a greater say and involvement
Greater accountability to the electorate of MP’s
More Police on the streets
Punishments that fit the crime
And the return of Capital Punishment
To name but a few things
Only two things can really stop me from going further –
1.Support – Just what do people think of the idea about a bog standard resident standing up to be counted, but to be counted for the benefit of others.
2.Cost – naturally, an issue like running a campaign involves some financial support and not just the £500 deposit, would people be prepared to put their hands in their pockets in support – using the Telford First vehicle and account we already have.
I’ll stand – unfortunately at such a level it requires considerable support from others.
