2005 - Mr Paul Fox Liberal Democrats
Action for Lyneham
A Message from Paul Fox
As we near the end of a hard fought election campaign, I want
to say a personal thank you
for the tremendous support I have received across North Wiltshire.
Almost everyone I meet really believes that we can win this
time; but I am not taking it for granted, and it could be
very close. One thing everyone knows
is that Labour cannot win this constituency. Local people
are choosing between myself and Michael Howard's Conservatives.
I have met many people who feel let down by both Labour and
the Conservatives, and who are fed up with their seemingly
endless bickering. I am too. That's why we have tried to be
clear and positive about what we stand for, offering a REAL
alternative. Many people are saying it is about time for a
chance. |
We need an MP who will stand up for local services
such as schools, hospital and post offices, both in the Constituency
and Westminster.
We need an MP who will prevent our communities becoming suburbs
of Swindon. We need fairer (not higher) taxes, and to make
sure the money is being well spent. That's why we want to
scrap the council tax, and hidden taxes like charges for personal
care for the elderly and student tuition fees.
We need more Police actually out on the beat. We need an
increase in the base state pension by £25 per week,
starting with the over 75s, together with a full pension entitlement
for all citizens, even if they had time off work for caring
responsibilities.
Internationally we need action on climate change, and to
put our country's interests first, not those of George Bush.
Above all, we need to restore a sense of trust - by being
honest about the choices we face, and ensuring that those
who misled us on such an important issue as war in Iraq are
not re-elected.
If ever I can be of service to you, then please do not hesitate
to get in touch.
With Best Wishes,
Paul Fox

Action for Lyneham
Paul Fox and Louise Mortlock believe the Government's
decision to close RAF Lyneham and centre all operations
at just one location is strategically misguided. Paul
says, "The use of only one location puts our logistics
capability at greater threat from terrorism."
As your local MP, Paul Fox will lobby the Government
to reconsider Lyneham's future. Paul says, "RAF
Lyneham has been a byword for excellence for many years.
I want that proud tradition to continue. "However,
should the Government press ahead with closure, Paul
and Louise will work hard to make sure the site is used
to ensure the viability of the local community, at the
same time as campaigning against over-development. |
