In Matt's own words

I've lived, volunteered, and worked hard in our Beeston and Holbeck communities for many years now. In that time, I've seen the issues we face first-hand: waste & fly-tipping, anti-social behaviour, housing, parking problems, and more. But I've also seen a community of neighbours, of love, with so much potential to thrive.

**Our community is hungry for change**. Myself and your local Green team have been here for you all year-round, taking action on these issues and, importantly, listening to you. I've been a dedicated campaigner for many years now, having co-led successful campaigns on saving libraries, organised practical action, engaged with you at forums/listening events, co-ran community events (including the LS11 Yard Sale), and spoken out on the big issues: planning battles, housing, environmental issues, and more.

On 7th May, a vote for me is a vote to put our community first: **I will be Beeston and Holbeck's voice on Leeds City Council, not the council's voice in our area**. With your support, myself and your Green team can do so much more and bring fresh thinking to the table.

In the last four elections (including the General Election), Greens have come a solid second in our area. And the Greens are surging, in Leeds and across the country, with an entirely different political dynamic and landscape. **I can win here**, but only with your support.

**It's time for change**. For year-round hard-work, for a fresh voice: **VOTE MATT ROGAN, GREEN PARTY, ON MAY 7TH.**
