Richard William Fricker
Green Party candidate for Millbrook
I have lived in Millbrook for many years. I believe in keeping all our green spaces, parks and play areas. They also need to be maintained and improved. The environment, social justice and council housing are key priorities. As a former Trade Union Senior Representative for many years I know how important well paid jobs are for the local community as well as thriving local small businesses. The sewage entering our rivers is a disgrace. Bringing the Water Industry and our other Utilities back into Public Ownership will help with the cost of living crisis as will a wealth tax.
