Bring a friend

And now - back in Lutterworth

Have you not voted Labour yet? These people have, and look how happy they are! In Lutterworth and villages, vote for DAVID GAIR, in Broughton and villages, vote for SANDRA PARKINSON, and in Bruntingthorpe (that's all the other villages including Fleckney) you need to be voting for LIZ MARSH.

And the same team in Broughton Astley this morning

I'm thinking there may be a theme here...

Your Labour candidate for Broughton Division

SANDRA PARKINSON

I am proud to have been a resident in Broughton Astley for over 16 years.  During this period I have witnessed positive improvements to our area of South Leicestershire. However, I am dismayed that traffic calming measures have still not been addressed.  As your Labour County Councillor I will seek to address the following issues:
Condition of highways throughout the area	·   Poor maintenance resulting in potholes ·   Road markings worn out ·   Speeding problems
Broughton Astley village centre congestion	Pushchair users and the disabled can’t use the pavement in safety. Shopkeepers and shoppers tell me that a simple one way system is needed, but the present council continues to do nothing!
Red Admiral pedestrian crossing, Broughton Astley	Despite initial support from the County Council, the offer of a zebra crossing was withdrawn. A zebra crossing would provide a safe place to cross and deter speeding traffic.
Bulls Head crossroads, Broughton Astley	This black-spot is particularly busy at school bus times. A simple mini roundabout would make traffic and pedestrians much safer and slow down speeding drivers at a busy and dangerous junction.
BROUGHTON DIVISION INCLUDES THE VILLAGES OF Ashby Magna, Ashby Parva, Broughton Astley, Dunton Bassett, Frolesworth and Leire.

Your Local Labour Candidates for Broughton

A Better Deal for Broughton

There is no doubt what will have the biggest impact on this side of the district in the next four years – the massive expansion planned for Magna Park.

We welcome the new jobs and the economic prosperity they will bring. But there is a danger – the danger that councillors from elsewhere in the district will see the bigger Magna Park as a money pot.

Some might try and spend that money elsewhere in Harborough.

Others will see it as a means of offloading responsibility for everywhere west of Husbands Bosworth.

We in Broughton have needs too - not just employment but affordable housing, more facilities for families and public transport.

What we desperately need is someone willing to stand up and shout for our rights!

Sandra Parkinson is standing in Broughton Ward

Sandra and her family have lived in Broughton Astley for fourteen years.  In 2013 she organised a petition to get traffic calming measures at the junction of Croft Way and Station Road.  Even the County Council agreed - but a subsequent petition about the exact siting let them shelve the project! The situation is only going to get worse with more housing and more traffic.  Sandra says, "I look to the people of Broughton Ward to support me in my bid to get peace of mind on this road safety issue."

Paul Maglione is standing in Sutton Ward

Paul has lived in Broughton Astley since 2012.  He is a workplace representative for Unite and joined the Labour Party because of his concerns over the NHS, zero hour contracts, and the erosion of employment rights.  Paul says, "Harborough District Council must get off its knees and spend some of its windfall from Magna Park on a regular bus service to and from Broughton.  Get cars off the roads and give local residents the chance of local jobs!"

d on this road safety issue.

Good luck tomorrow!

If you want to know what these elections mean nationally, there's a fascinating article here.

County Council candidates

It was a special open GC meeting at Broughton on Tuesday night, devoted to the upcoming County elections.  Main speaker was Nick Brown, former County Councillor and current constituency campaigns organiser, who reminded us of the hard fact that we must be targeted and disciplined to win anything in South Leicestershire.  But it can be done and here, on the right in the picture (the only time the phrase 'on the right' can ever be applied to her) is Braunstone County Councillor Jo Fox.  Labour is standing in every seat in the constituency and these are our nine candidates.

It was a great meeting and what promises to be a successful campaign got off to a great start last Sunday with twenty-odd out on the streets of Enderby Meridian.
