Conservative candidate for Wakefield South
I am Nadeem Ahmed - the Conservative candidate in the upcoming by election on 23 June. I was born in Manygates Hospital, the eldest son of immigrant parents. I grew up in Agbrigg, Wakefield with my family and attended Sandal Magna First School, Manygates Middle School and St Thomas a Becket Comprehensive School. I come from a humble working class background with a strong work ethic and a belief that hard work and perseverance can lead to success. The two previous MPs failed Wakefield and on top of that we have a Labour council which has also failed the residents of Wakefield. It's time for change in Wakefield - it's time for a local MP who has a vested interest in Wakefield which goes beyond politics and straight into the hearts and souls of our vibrant and diverse communities. A strong local voice who has a proven track record of getting things done having been a local councillor for 16 years. That's why I'm asking you to vote for me, NADEEM AHMED, on 23 June so that I can be YOUR voice in parliament and raise the issues that matter to YOU.
