Sally Richardson
Labour candidate for Coombe Hill
I am a longstanding Kingston resident and was educated at Coombe Girls School and London University. I am dismayed by the trashing of Kingston’s built environment by developers who have no interest in making Kingston a better place - only in making money. Luxury flats do nothing to alleviate the shortage of decent housing for Kingston people. I promise to oppose unsympathetic development and to campaign for quality affordable housing with transport links and services. Labour stands for better local services, investment in children and young people, support for local businesses, whether service, retail or manufacturing, and a creative quarter that would make the most of our unique history and create jobs. Labour can win in Kingston. All it takes is your votes. Kingston deserves more than just more cuts to services and more tower blocks. Please vote Labour – the real alternative.
