Paul Beswick

My name is Paul Beswick and I am proud to announce that I intend to stand in the Local council elections on May 5th 2022 as a member of the Middleton Independent Party for East Middleton Ward. I have lived in Middleton since I married 46 years ago. Throughout my life in Middleton I have watched this town I moved to be run down to a shadow of its former status. This has been done by the Party Politics of the main Parties. We seem to be an afterthought to what Rochdale town thinks it should have. Our Arena was only built because Rochdale Council made a deal with Tesco and other parties, at what cost to the make up of our town. Now it’s about time Middleton peoples voices were heard, not through the mainstream parties, but your own Party, Middleton Independents Party. I have joined the Middleton Independents to make sure Middleton's voice is heard in the Council Chamber and to fight for a better town, so with your three votes on May 5th, (don’t forget you have 3 votes this year), vote for the Middleton people that will act for Middleton, not some mainstream Party candidate who has to toe the party line. I am, if elected, here to listen to your voices and act upon your concerns to the best of my ability, I may not be too politically savvy of the mainstream politics, but NO voice from Middleton means no voice being heard in Rochdale Town Hall to fight for our town.
