21 November (Part 2) - What do they stand for?
There are quite a lot of Old Bexley & Sidcup election leaflets available in
the Archive and the two big parties are still pushing the local Agenda. I
suppose they know what they are doing but for me it is a turn off. OB&S is electing an MP not a Councillor.
An analysis of leaflets collected so far reveals the following stated interests
Brexit
Christian People’s Alliance, UKIP
Celebrate Britain
Heritage Party
Cleaner Streets
Conservative Party, Labour Party
Covid: Lock Downs/Passports
Christian People’s Alliance, Heritage Party. Lib
Dems, Reform UK

The English Democrats, Rejoin EU, The Green Party and The Official Monster
Raving Loony Party are also standing but no election leaflets have so far surfaced.
The thought that the subjects you might hear discussed over a pint, Covid, free
speech, energy price increases, health care, housing, immigration, Net Zero,
collapsing public services and escalating levels of taxation are being ignored
by the major parties is hard to overlook.
