I'm pleased as punch that we now have Conservative councillors in Lye, Cradley and Quarry Bank, and all three in Amblecote.
This a testament to hard work and a massive endorsement of our policies and manifestos locally, regionally, and nationally.
I am beyond thrilled at some of the results but, in particular, the result in Lye. An area long neglected by its Labour councillors. I know that it’s new Conservative councillor, Dave Borley, will be a terrific asset for the ward and I will work very closely with him to bring investment into the area - investment that is long overdue and will be forthcoming.
Local people are desperate to improve their neighbourhoods and this will continue to be a focus for myself and all our new councillors. We will continue to deliver a real difference across Stourbridge.
The Prime Minister’s visit only last week was a massive endorsement of his support for the people of Stourbridge. The local election results this week show that people recognise his and my core values of ensuring people succeed in life, can buy their own home and have lifelong job security.
