In Wyre Forest election material produced by the Labour Party, I recently expressed a number of views in support of David Lock.

Some of that material may have given the impression that these views were also those of Bewdley Medical Centre and the colleagues I work with.

I would like to make it clear that these views are my own personal views expressed in support of David Lock and are not associated in any way with the medical centre and my working colleagues.

I would assure patients and members of the public that Bewdley Medical Centre neither supports nor refutes any particular candidate or political party.

I would, however, like to wish Dr Richard Taylor every success as our new Member of Parliament. I am sure he will work as tirelessly for the benefit of our local people as he did as a consultant when I was a junior hospital doctor at Kidderminster General Hospital.

DR CLIVE PRINCE

Bewdley Medical Centre
