Message from Glen Miller / Group Leader

2012 Message from Glen.

The last couple of years have been tough on many local residents and many further afield and it would appear as if the coming year may not see much, if any improvement. But let’s be clear on this, we are in this position due to the incompetence of the previous Labour Government, plus an economic uncertainty straddling the world.

 

Closer to home, within the Bradford district we see a failing Labour set budget hugely overspent, a leadership and executive with little or no direction, who can do nothing but blame the coalition government for their failings. A group that puts self interest above those of the district, and one that will not carry out any meaniful consultation

 

It is the duty of those of us who put ourselves forward to represent the public interest, to do whatever is within our power to assist local residents through these difficult times. To this end the Conservative Group on Bradford Council will be pressing the council to direct its resources to the protection of front line services and also helping hard pressed council taxpayers, plus businesses through the recession.

 

We as a group representing all residents of the district will be presenting a budget for the district and policy proposals augmented by a desire to help people through the challenges that the year ahead will bring. The Conservative Group hope to contribute a little bit towards making sure that the year ahead is not all challenge, but also some pleasure.

 

My colleagues and I hope everyone enjoyed Christmas,  and we wish everyone a Happy New Year!
