Councillor Candidate
Andrew James Thorp

Andrew James Thorp

Conservative candidate for Ridgeway

Conservative

I have lived in Enfield for nearly 20 years and am married with three small children. I am passionate about our community, I work and volunteer to make Enfield the best place it can be. I care passionately about the borough and want Enfield to get a beter deal from the council. I will fight to protect Enfield’s Green Belt from being built on. I oppose Enfield Labour’s plans to build thousands of properties on our green space. I will ensure that Ridgeway Ward is not neglected and that fly-tipping is removed quickly. I want Enfield to be a place everyone can enjoy. I will also oppose the proliferation of massive tower blocks in Enfield. I will fight to preserve the suburban nature of our borough. I believe that votes should be earned & not taken for granted. If you vote for me I promise to listen and work hard to represent all residents in Enfield
