It was an interesting doorstep session. Milton ward is an
interesting place for many reasons, not least because it is a straight
Labour/Tory marginal. My victory four years was achieved with a mere 68 vote
margin; last year we missed out by an even fewer 51 votes.
It was an interesting doorstep session. The usual topics
came up: dog poo, parking, drug dealing, development. Some national issues too,
such as Europe, immigration and the welfare state.
We had the Labour Police and Crime Commissioner candidate
for Essex, Chris Vince, with us. He went down well with residents, and whilst
many were unaware to start with the May 5th sees not just elections for councillors
but also for the PCC then his presence was warmly welcomed.
Chris is definitely in it to win it, and is focussing on
victory in May. We need a Labour Essex PCC to stand up to the Tory Government
and its agenda for cutting Police numbers. It is obvious that another Tory PCC
will go meekly along with whatever the Cameron Government wants, and this is
not good for Milton's residents.
