Out on the doorsteps

Since 2006 I have spent a considerable amount of time speaking to people across Pontefract South. As some people put it my recognition is high.  Over the last three weekends I have been out and about working with Beth Prescott our Parliamentary Candidate and there seems to be an emerging and positive trend

There have been a raft of  Labour leaflets and letters delivered by their activists in essence saying they seek to protect you, that they know better and there is a particular thrust about the NHS services and provision which simply is making people angry especially where Labour are asking that people trust them.





The NHS simply would not be safe in Labour's hands and there are all to many examples of an unthinking approach that has created huge local problems a number of which stem from our MP's time as a Labour Junior Health Minister as she pursued her career within her party.

In Pontefract people have been wishing us well.

Irritated by Labour's assumption that they have a divine right to rule on the local council based on the 41 years they have had control that actually the people of the district want protecting from Labour whims their false sense of self righteousness and the MP's absentee status,

There is a tough fight ahead to dislodge them but we intend to do all we can to support the people of Pontefract South and would appreciate your support through the run up to the Local Elections on the 7th of May and the General Election (yes 2 elections on one day).

When you do see me out and about say hello.

Cheers

Geoff
