Andy Frampton
Labour candidate for Thornhill
Andy Frampton was born in the ward and lives locally with his family. His experience as a Regional Secretary with UNITE means that he knows the problems that affect working families and his local campaigning has put him in touch with the problems facing Bitterne, Thornhill and parts of Sholing. Andy says: ‘My personal pledge to you is that if elected as your councillor I will work for a new kind of local government politics: more inclusive, walking the streets of the area, listening and acting on your concerns whether it be: > Anti-Social Behaviour > Pot Holes > Building Repairs > Planning Applications > Parking Problems I will be there. Making our area a “better place to live” in which no one is left behind.
