Advance UK candidate for Walkden South
Hello everyone I'm Craig 36 years old from Worsley. I grew up in Warrington for the first 6 years of my life before moving to Timperley with my mother and grandmother. I lived there until I met my wife when I was 24. I lived in Swinton for 5 years before moving to Worlsey in February 2020. Why do I want to be MP for Worsley and Eccles? We need change in government and the people have had enough of the same 2 party's getting in and doing nothing. My plans for Worsley and Eccles South 1. Recruit more police officers 2. Reduce rent costs for small and medium local businesses 3. Celebrate VE and St. Georges day. 4. Reduce council taxes by not wasting public funding. I.e. Pointless cycle lanes that many do not use. 5. Bring back public services I.e. Road sweepers 6. Protect our heritage in all constituencies 7. Increase the tax threshold from £12,500 to £20,000 8. Fast track new build houses on brown field sites and protect our green belt. 9. Accelerate our transport network in our constituencies 10. Leave the ECHR and Introduce the British Bill of rights 11. Scrap the Rwanda deal and instead send the boats back to France. It costs £3,000 of British tax payers money to send an illegal migrant to Rwanda. 12. Motivate people back to work by withdrawing their benefits after 4 months if they fail to find a job. (If fit and able to work)
