Dear Resident

I have been privileged to be Leader of North West Leicestershire District Council for the past 12  years.

I am writing to you today to ask you to vote for my Conservative team in the local elections on May 2nd.

Two million, fourteen thousand, nine hundred and sixty-seven to be precise. That’s how many potholes Conservative-run councils have fixed since 2016.

When you've been around local politics for a little while you get to learn nothing gets residents angrier than a windy day when the recycling is due to be picked up.

Three weeks until polling day.

Last week the Coalville Times printed an article about Labour's local election manifesto launch.

Our Deputy Chairman, Leon Spence, writes to the Editor.

Dear Sir

North West Leicestershire Labour Election Manifesto

This is about the issues that really matters to people locally. So on May 2nd, residents have the opportunity to keep their council tax low – and protect their services.

Our plan for Coalville: simple, deliverable and with you in mind.
