All Change for Woking in 2010
2010 gives the voters of Woking a unique chance to change the politics of the town and help change the national scene in 2010. On May 6th we will have elections for Woking Borough Council. On the same day it is very likely that we will have a General Election. In both contests the voters of Woking can send a clear message that they are fed up of the stale and corrupt politics of the two main parties. On the Borough Council the Tories have 18 seats to the Lib Dems 17. Any gains by the Lib Dems could see them take control from a discredited administration.

Woking needs a local MP
Woking has not had an MP who lives here for nearly 50 years! The Tory candidate lives in Godalming.
In the General Election it is a straight fight between our probable candidate Rosie Sharpley, a nursing practitioner who has lived and worked in Woking for over 30 years and the Tory candidate, a marketing consultant who lives south of Guildford. In the County Council elections last year the Lib Dems were less than 2000 behind the Tories. Labour are finished here with no councillors, coming fourth behind UKIP.
Rosies Sharpley's pledges to the voters of Woking.

"I hate to say it, but only one party leader seems to have grasped that, if you construct a system where unskilled people are worse off by taking a job than by staying on welfare, they remain trapped in poverty - and that is Nick Clegg. "
Lord Norman Tebbit
Daily Telegraph online - 13 Jan
"It's unbelievable that the Tories are still planning to cut taxes for a handful of millionaires when the majority of people across the country are feeling the squeeze. We need fair tax cuts that put money back in the pockets of ordinary people. The Tory sums simply do not stack up. It is irresponsible and highly misleading for George Osborne to continue to pretend that they do. "
