20 April - A new leaflet

Reform sloganElection leaflets are still in short supply. The only source is the Leader of the Working for Sidcup Party who unfortunately doesn’t own a scanner! Hence the less than perfect image of a recent Conservative leaflet delivered to his Sidcup home.

It still strikes me as odd that the Conservatives set up their own company dedicated to building on any scrap of land they can find; at least two parks built on so far; and they then go on about Reform UK wanting to do the same.

The latter is a another Tory lie. I met Reform people last year - both now candidates in Bexley - who were very much against building on parks. I have several year old emails from them saying exactly that. The Tories in Bexley have always been liars and there is no sign of them changing. We have liars in Westminster; we do not want them in Watling Street too.

Note: While Sidcup Councillor June Slaughter was personally against building on Old Farm in her ward she nevertheless voted for it because Bexley Conservatives are not allowed independent thought. The UKIP Councillor, now a Reform UK candidate, voted against building on Old Farm Park.

If you think Councillors should vote according to their conscience and/or the wishes of residents, then a Conservative vote is not for you.
