I imagine while you're canvassing, many pensioners won't answer their doors as they won't want to get any colder, thanks to Freebies Starmer and the Labour Party taking their WFA...

I wish there was a Labour MP for Canterbury.
We as a party have a massive and it is this. Labour have been in power 6 months. The media perception is awful, they batter us at every opportunity. How do overcome the deliberately negative narrative that the media has against us as a party.
We can, if we get rid of Starmer as leader.
We are delighted to announce Beth Forrester as our candidate for the St Stephen’s ward, Canterbury, by-election on 6th March.
Beth, a public sector lawyer, lives with her partner and two children in the middle of St Stephen’s ward. After nearly 15 years here, and as governor of a local secondary school, Beth knows what issues matter to local families. She is committed to being a strong, local voice for our neighbourhood and community.
Beth loves Canterbury and St Stephen’s, but knows that together we can make it even better, delivering improved council services and making our area safer, cleaner and greener.
Action on potholes
• After 14 years of Tory neglect, local roads are in a terrible state. Beth will change that. Labour is investing £1.6 billion in our roads in 2025 and fixing 7 million extra potholes a year. Beth will fight to make sure St Stephen’s gets its fair share of this new cash
St Stephen’s at heart
• There’s so much going on in St Stephen’s and it is a strong and vibrant community. Beth will work with neighbours, residents and community groups to make it even stronger, and ensure everyone is included and feels welcome
Safe, clean and green
• Canterbury has some great playgrounds and open spaces. Beth will stand up for St Stephen’s and work to improve Long Meadow Park. Beth wants our local green spaces to be biodiverse and to be cleaner, safer and more accessible for local people and families ... See MoreSee Less

She'll stand under a labour ticket, use them to get elected, then turn around and throw everyone under the bus. Not falling for it again.
Roads fall under KCC not CCC though. How will Beth fight for the cash for potholes in this case?
I imagine many pensioners will be too cold, thanks to the Labour Party taking their WFA.
We have been out canvassing in the Gorrell area of Whitstable this weekend with our wonderful candidate Valerie Kenny, talking to local people ahead of the Gorrell ward by-election on March 6th.
Lots of friendly faces and useful conversations with residents whose concerns include roadworks and parking in central Whitstable, anti-social behaviour, and the ongoing problem of sea sewage. As someone very involved in the local community, Valerie is really keen to address and follow up on these matters. ... See MoreSee Less

Well done! Unfortunately, l have not attended any meetings due to back and leg injuries. But I will be supporting you as a Labour Member went the weather improves and my health best wishes to you all Jennifer Jennifer Glynis Cardy.
Hopefully you'll see some pensioners who may have been lucky enough not to have frozen to death without the WFA that Labour removed.

WASHINGTON/LONDON, Jan 17 (Reuters) - Britain is set to have the fastest growth among major European economies this year, according to the International Monetary Fund, a boost to finance minister Rachel Reeves who is under pressure over a slowdown since her party came to power in July.
The IMF on Friday raised its forecast for British growth for 2025 by 0.1 percentage points to 1.6%, making it the third-strongest among the Group of Seven advanced economies after the United States and Canada. ... See MoreSee Less

We are delighted and proud to announce Valerie Kenny as our candidate for the Gorrell ward, Whitstable, by-election on Thursday 6th March.
Valerie, who is a former headteacher and magistrate, has lived in Gorrell ward for over two decades. She has always been active in community groups across Whitstable, and is particularly passionate about the environment, joining in local campaigns for clean beaches and sea, saving green spaces and making our community safer and greener.
Valerie’s priorities for Gorrell ward:
- Fix our local roads
Labour has pledged £54 million to fix Kent roads. The Tories at Kent County Council just close them.
- A cleaner and greener Whitstable
Labour councillors and a Labour government passing new laws are holding Southern Water to account.
- Support our High Street
Valerie will speak up to help our High Street thrive, securing good local jobs and protecting our harbour.
Valerie will be canvassing in Gorrell regularly between now and the by-election on 6th March and will look forward to talking to people on doorsteps and answering any questions people might have for her. ... See MoreSee Less
