Gareth Brian Thomas

Labour candidate for Coombe Vale

Labour

My family and I have lived in Coombe Vale for over a decade. We’ve seen Tory councillors here and a Tory controlled council, and now we’ve seen Lib Dem councillors here in Coombe Vale with a Lib Dem controlled council, and nothing has changed. Our daughter goes to the local state school in Coombe Vale and we know first-hand the way the council has failed to give strong leadership to education in the borough. It’s time for real change; both nationally and locally it’s only the Labour Party that can renew our country.
