Cllr. Paul Crofts and Independent Socialists in Wellingborough: Local Socialist to stand in general election
March 27 2010
The local group Independent Socialists in Wellingborough, supported by the national Trade Union and Socialists Coalition, has decided to stand a candidate in the General Election in the Wellingborough and Rushden Constituency.
Well-know
Wellingborough Councillor and campaigner, Paul Crofts, has agreed to stand as
a socialist candidate.
Councillor Paul Crofts
In a statement issued today Paul Crofts said:
"I am delighted to be standing in this election in Wellingborough and Rushden as a Socialist candidate. I will be asking people to vote for socialist values and principles; to vote for an alternative to cutbacks, job losses and worsening public services; for fairness and justice in who pays for the current economic crisis; for the most privileged and wealthy to pay their fair share; for human rights, dignity and respect; and for measures now to prevent our global world from impending environmental, economic and social disaster.
This country is the sixth richest in the world, but is also one of most unequal and the most unhappy. The rich are paying half as much tax as 40 years ago, the poorest are paying twice as much. This is just not fair and it must change.
In short, I will be saying to the people of Wellingborough and Rushden: you can vote for an alternative, you can vote positively for someone who represents your values and we can together create a better and just world for all"
