02/05/05 - Cllr Tomlinson, My Pledge To Residents

I haverepresented Abbey Meads since 2000 and Iam the only candidate who lives in the Abbey Meads ward.
I have the experience, energy and enthusaism to continue working extremely hard all year round fighting our corner in the Council Chamber, delivering regular newsletters, knocking on doors, organising public meetings and leading on major planning and developer issues.
It is only the Conservatives who are seen outside of election time, and during the 6 years as your Councillor, I have made a real positive difference to the local area.
I very much hope you will re-elect me to continue putting Abbey Meads first.
