Tonight I was out with the team, fourth time this week knocking on doors on the Lingham Estate. The response was great, which is what we have come to expect, as the results have demonstrated over the last week. The trick of course, is to make sure that all those who have pledged to vote [...]

I have been sent an email from one of my constituents asking that I publicise a scheme that is to come into force pretty soon. The scheme will see the Government bring in new regulations later this month, and will see motorists forced to cough up court costs – even if they’re found not guilty or acquitted [...]

The fact of the matter is, it was triggered by myself and my colleague Cllr Simon Mountney, via email at 1:47pm on Friday 9th October. You can read that [...]
