Local issues in Richmond Park
We're collecting local issues in Richmond Park. Some of these have been turned into questions to put to the candidates standing at the 2010 general election in the form of a questionnaire.
Issues are no longer being turned into questions, but we still want them! A good local issue will be about a problem of local relevance, possibly suggesting how something should have been/be done.
- Council Tax is too high (source)
- Tesco are opening too many stores locally (source)
- Layabout plutocrats should not be able to buy seats in Parliament
- Housing is very expensive so households on modest incomes are priced out of the borough.
- Council tax is relatively high as central govt grant is low.
- Kingston Hospital should be saved (source)
- the six issues listed aren't in order of priority. Tesco should be last, govern ment grant first. Buying seats goes to the heart of the shabbiness of our democratic system and its funding
- Kingston Upon Thames needs a secondary school in the North of the borough but not on the site of two existing schools (source)
- This constituency serves 2 boroughs and the council tax in Kingston Upon Thames is too high also (source)
