Dear Elector,

Most people are sick of professional politicians

–

and so am I. You don't need another

careerist, a party hack or

some new arrival from London.

I hope you want an MP who has lived in this

community for more than a few months, who k

nows

its problems and who will campaign with loca

l

people to make things better.

As your MP, I would take only the average wage

for the area. I will vote against everything tha

t

makes ordinary people poorer and rich peopl

e

richer.I won't be grovelling fo

r a junior post in

Parliament, or taking money from lobbyists or

business.I'm a socialist, brought

up and still living in the

constituency. Please don't vote for me if you

want a

Blue, Yellow or Pink Tory who's looking for a

cushy career.

Yours sincerely,

Rob Griffiths
