The LibDem team want to challenge the complacency that comes with long-term one party dominance. ” THE TEAM THAT WORKS FOR YOU FACTS about your local Conservative Candidates in the Broadland District Council election: Jo Cottingham: A complaint was made to the Broadland District Council Monitoring Officer in 2012 about her comments relating to the employment of a staff member heading up a department, prior to it being disbanded. The comments were considered to be a possible breach of the councillor’s code of conduct and an external investigator was appointed . The investigator reported back but before the findings were made known, Mrs Cottingham resigned her position as district councillor for Aylsham. The complaint lapsed. The cost to council taxpayers of the investigation up to the point of her resignation was £23,000. Ian Graham During this last 4 year term of the District Council Ian Graham, the one remaining Conservative ward member for Aylsham, has hardly been seen at the Aylsham Town Council Meeting, or for that matter at Oulton, Marsham, Blickling, or Burgh & Tuttington parish council meetings. 3 Votes for 3 Councillors - Make your 3 choices: Voters of all shades of opinion are backing Steve Riley to be the next M.P for Broadland. They are backing Steve because they realise it is time we had a different kind of M.P. Someone with the ideas and energy to meet the challenges of the 21st century. Steve was a Senior industrial relations negotiator for many years, and has also run his own manufacturing business . He is a current Broadand District Councillor and chair of the important Overview and Scrutiny Committee that holds the council to account. For far too long residents in Broadland have been taken for granted or just plain ignored. We need an M.P. who will put Broadland first and not just follow party orders Steve says “It is no secret that I have worked closely with Norman Lamb, an M.P who always champions his constituency and local people in North Norfolk. It is about time Broadland had its own local champion. A full time hard working MP that will refuse to take a second job putting local people first before party politics here in Broadland and at Westminster.” It’s time for change for the voters of Broadland . If I am elected the first thing I will do is to establish better contact and support for individual residents and communities. Broadland is geographically a huge constituency and the MP’s local office can be many miles away from residents. I believe it is essential to set up satellite surgeries in places such as Aylsham to give better support and see people face to face. And I would produce a quarterly newsletter to keep residents better informed . I have already pledged to take up a number of resident’s concerns as an MP . One big issue is planning. Developers have the right lawfully to appeal refusal of planning permission but parish councils and individuals who opposed a development have no such rights. I will campaign to change this. Build a Stronger Economy We will balance the budget by 2018, protecting the economic recovery and brining down Britain's debt. We would cut income tax by a further £400 for low and middle earners, easing the squeeze on household budgets. Build a Fairer Society We would guarantee equal care and waiting times for mental health as for physical health, by increasing spending on the NHS. We would ensure every child is taught by a qualified teacher and protect spending on nurseries, schools and colleges. Pass a Nature Law We would pass a nature law to protect green spaces, tree, birds and animals, clean up polluted air rivers and ensure Britain is at the forefront of fighting climate change. Only Steve or the Conservative can win here Steve will always put people first, be a full time hard working MP(no second job) supporting our communities. Backing Labour or smaller parties will just help the Conservative candidate win It’s really close in our area so your vote could make all the difference. As MP for the neighbouring constituency of North Norfolk I have worked closely with Steve on a number of issues and have seen first-hand just how incredibly hard he works for people and communities. Steve Riley has the experience, calibre and work ethic that a first class MP needs to deliver for people and our local communities. I have always been impressed with the way Steve listens to people before he acts and understands how to get things done . Steve will be a breath of fresh air in Parliament for Broadland and a powerful voice for communities and residents. His integrity, accountability, and commitment are second to none . Steve always puts local people first before party politics and I would urge you strongly to vote for Steve he really will be the first rate full time MP that Broadland needs and deserves.
