Your Local Labour Candidates for Lutterworth

Fighting to get a better deal for Lutterworth

There is no doubt what will have the biggest impact on our town in the next four years - the massive expansion up at Magna Park. The site is a huge asset to our town, bringing jobs, opportunities and prosperity.

But Harborough District Council, which receives a huge income from the Park, does very little to alleviate the inevitable problems that come with such a major site. It really is like they just don't care.

With your support on May 7 we can start to turn the situation around.

We need routeing agreements, places for the lorries to park overnight, landscaping to reduce the noise, and a bus service from the site to all our local villages to minimise car journeys to and from work.

We can't take another four years of being the bottom of everyone's agenda.

DAVID GAIR is standing in ORCHARD WARD

David has been a Town Councillor since 2008.  He has fought hard to save the De Verdon Road allotments and to secure improvements for our roads and cycle routes.  He says: "We need a strong voice at Harborough District Council that does not simply toe the party line or weakly submit to the national government agenda. Local politics should be about local people and local issues."

MIKE SUTTON is standing in SPRINGS WARD

Mike is a former Marine and a well-known local businessman.  His wife runs a shop in Church Street and their four children all work in the town. This gives Mike a vested interested in Lutterworth.  He says: "This is our town, our future, the place our granddaughter will grow up and go to school.  Harborough has ignored us for too long.  It's time to make things happen!"

SIMON TODD is standing in SWIFT WARD

Simon served in the RAF before moving to Lutterworth.  He now works for the East Midlands Ambulance Service.  For two and a half years he was our Town Crier - so if you want your voice heard at Harborough there really is no better choice.  Simon says: "Your problems are most likely my problems as we walk the same streets and share the same services. I am not afraid to fight for what is right and for what you deserve."

AMANDA HOLYOAK is standing in BROOKFIELD WARD

Having served on the Town Council for the last four years, Amanda is standing as a District Councillor because "I wash to help shape the community in which my children are growing up, and make a difference to the town in which we live."
