Les Cade
Conservative candidate for Ewood
Active on State
My family all come from around Ewood, some of you may remember the horse load P H, that was my parents. I had my wedding reception there 44 years ago. Why am I standing? As you may have seen on my flyer or in the Telegraph I have been going into the council forum asking questions of the council for a couple of years now I am known by many of the sitting councillors. We are about to enter negotiations over local government reform, the decisions taken in the next few years will determine the future of our borough, town and area. I want to help shape our towns future and by default I want to serve Ewood to ensure it gets full and fair representation
