Mark Andrew Goodair
Liberal Democrats candidate for Wakefield Rural
I am the only candidate standing in this election that actually lives in Horbury, infact I have lived in Horbury all my life. I know how much the Labour controlled council treat both Horbury and Ossett as the forgotten part of the District . I now that our ward needs someone to stand up in the Council Chamber and fight for our area rather than being told how to vote by their party bosses .
