In Carlton's own words

I live locally and am fed up with Sunderland Council. Every councillor in Washington

is from the Labour party. It’s not healthy for local democracy and it shows. They say

there’s no money for Washington, but they’re spending millions on new council

offices in Sunderland. I want to stand up to years of failure, neglect and complacency

from Labour’s council bosses in Sunderland and fight to improve our communities.

Please lend me and the Liberal Democrats your vote in this year’s council election.

Washington deserves better than just another Labour councillor who is more

interested in Sunderland than our own town.

Is this you?
