Moment to reflect

Now that elections are over, I wanted to take a moment to reflect.

While I didn’t get over the line, I’m incredibly honoured to have had the opportunity to work with the Wokingham Conservative team. They are a splendid group, and I know that their hearts are in the right place.

Their intentions are always to do good things for the people of this Borough.

Despite not being able to campaign face to face due to the pandemic, I was still able to hold the Lib Dems to account.

My campaign highlighted the oblivion of the current councillors and shone a spotlight on the many issues ignored.

Some people in Winnersh are genuinely worried about their local area and their house prices being affected by the blight of graffiti and littering.

I earnestly believe Winnersh can be better, cleaner and safer. The area can be enhanced by the elected councillors. There should be less passing the buck and a lot more tangible improvements.

The three Lib Dems have yet again another opportunity to deliver for the residents in Winnersh.

I hope this time they live up to their responsibilities. Bernadette Mitra, via email
