Dear Croome Resident I am increasingly concerned by the decline in British industries. Having worked in IT, Admin and Finance, I have seen how ever-increasing, often EU, bureaucracy has stifled growth and success.

A lack of interest in basic skills education has increased the difficulties faced by most businesses. Finally, the recent greed of Banks and self-seeking Managements has almost crippled the entire Country.

In Local Government I want to make big changes, by using funds more wisely and not wasting it on unnecessary projects and think-tanks. I live in Malvern and want to see a better future for my 2 lovely sons, Paul and Steven, along with the rest of their and future generations.
