“Working for a better Derbyshire Dales”

Colin writes;

Over the past few weeks I have been touring the constituency and meeting as many voters as possible.

I wish to take this opportunity to thank the electorate for being so positive and welcoming.

But one thing that has been made quite clear is voter’s disenchantment with the current state of politics – and it’s not surprising!

I pledge to make restoring your faith in politicians a top priority, remaining 100% transparent and accountable at all times.

I want to serve your interests, not my own!

Vote for Colin to get the Tories out!

FACT - At the last general election in this area, Labour came second behind the Conservatives.

Together we can do it!

Derbyshire Dales Labour is pleased to be supporting, Colin Swindell as their local Parliamentary Candidate.

He had this to say to kick off his campaign!

“It is an honour to have been selected to stand as a candidate in this election for my home constituency, Derbyshire Dales.

On polling day voters will be faced with a choice; four more years of Tory domination across the constituency or a fresh start with a new MP.We need an MP who is in touch with local people and understands their everyday concerns and I believe I am the candidate with the renewed energy, vision and determination we need.

Having grown up, been educated and worked in the area all my life, I am ready to represent the Derbyshire Dales and take on the challenges faced by our rural communities and market towns.

I look forward to meeting as many voters as possible over the coming weeks to discuss the issues that are important to you.”
