Dear
Resident,
As a Boscombe Councillor I write to explain why, after much
thought, I have left the Lib Dems this week and joined the
Conservative Party.
Firstly,
decisions including:
.
• Sale of the Yellow Buses
• Closure of the BIC pool
• Sale of our sea front car parks
• Inadequate regeneration plans for Boscombe which include
the loss of the end of the pier removing any chance of bringing
back pleasure trips
These
decisions were not mentioned in the Lib Dem local election
manifesto of 2003 and in my view are not in Bournemouth's
interest.
Secondly,
I object to the Lib Dems negative style of campaigning.
The
Lib Dems have been running a misleading and negative general
election campaign which I do not want to be associated with.
In
contrast, I have been very impressed with Tobias Ellwood the
Conservative Candidate, whose positive campaign is focusing
on the issues that really matter and in my view will be a
huge asset to Bournemouth, if elected as our local MP.
Yours
faithfully
Philip
Stanley-Watts
