“In Michael's own words
“My pledges to you”
“If elected, my number 1 and overriding priority is to do my best for the people in Washington North Ward.”
“I will strive at all times to work hard and fight for Washington’s fair share from our city.”
“I want to foster and bring back a sense of community. I want to create more awareness of things to do locally, both new and established. Youth clubs, groups etc. Helping to create a sense of pride and community in where we live whilst reducing anti-social behaviour”
“ Support residents and be a mouthpiece to highlight issues. Assist in getting them resolved in a timely manner.”
“ Always respond to queries in an honest and timely manner. I might not know the answer or be able to get a response that pleases everyone but I pledge to answer honestly with reasoning and if i don’t know – find someone who does! I want to be open, visible and approachable”
