Caroline many many thanks for your support. Very sorry to hear about your family’s loss. It can be such a devastating illness.

Proud to have been part of the winning team and privileged to work with such a nice group of hard working people. It was a great result and we now have three elected dedicated ERA Councillors committed to representing the residents of Esher Ward.

[Cllr Richard Williams @CllrWilliamsERA]

The end of a gruelling campaign. A great win for @esherresidents which now has all three #Esher councillors. Thank you to all our supporters who got behind our little army. #giantkillers #belocal #simonwaugh

[Esher Residents Association @esherresidents]

Coming through your letterbox today. Free of Westminster dictats and central control, Simon Waugh is our candidate for tomorrow’s elections. He is a good man, devoted to the betterment of Esher and Hersham. Please vote for him.

[Simon Leifer @SimonLeifer]

I am Chair of the ERA. We are apolitical & concerned only with local issues. We welcome support regardless of national political views. Your claim that we are all Tory implies you have some kind of magical insider info into the contents of the ballot box. Do you??

@monicabeharding Residents Association is the Tories in all but name🤬

@OxshottCllr
@EsherResidents Richard great result all round particularly as a lot of con cllrs have changed from their original position of voting to allow Sandown to build on the Greenbelt around 10 yrs ago.Linda was instrumental in the Sandown result and is a local hero.

[Cllr Richard Williams @CllrWilliamsERA]

Here’s the funny thing Andrew. Simon and I actually speak quite a lot and agree stuff. I was delighted he spoke so well at the enquiry.

[Cllr Richard Williams @CllrWilliamsERA]

This felt like the longest campaign ever. Thanks to all our wonderful road reps, deliverers, door knockers and other helpers. We hope that @DavidYoungERA is elected. He would make a terrific councillor.

[Simon Leifer @SimonLeifer]

Delighted to see so many people keen to have their voice heard in Esher today. Shame no party other than ERA “telling” at any of the polling venues. Great to chat to people as they leave and get their views.

[Simon Leifer @SimonLeifer]

How can the Tories be trusted when they ALL voted to grant pp on the Green Belt (Sandown Park) in 2009 when you were already a Tory cllr & Housing Sec Jenrick is about to give further approval in the next 10 days for 300+ expensive homes on Sandown?You are arrogant beyond belief

[Esher & Walton Conservatives @EsherWaltonCons]

If you want to protect the Elmbridge green belt you must vote Conservative on Thursday. Our leader Cllr James Browne explains why 👇 (see the longer version of the video on our Facebook page: https://t.co/HgCnPGsuHd)

[Simon Leifer @SimonLeifer]

Shooting from the hip again. No, it wasn't before your time. It was a 2019 app & you have been a Tory Cllr since 2014. In Feb the Planning Inspector said a decision would be issued on/before 12 May. Local elections are over by then. Cynical or what?

[Cllr Steve Bax @MoleseySteve]

@CllrWilliamsERA @ElmbridgeCons Before my time I’m afraid. More relevant is @ElmbridgeCons Simon Waugh’s robust defence of the green belt at the Sandown appeal, and Dominic Raab writing in support of the refusal.

[Simon Leifer @SimonLeifer]

@MoleseySteve @carolinehjames @DominicRaab @XXingang @CllrWilliamsERA @ChristineJElmer @ElmbridgeGroup @LesleyYauner Surprised at your misuse of the word 'bullying'. I suggest you use a dictionary before shooting from the hip. Bullying is 'seeking to harm, intimidate or coerce (someone perceived as vulnerable)'. So where are you going with this? Now that is 'uncool' .

[Simon Leifer @SimonLeifer]

How ironic that our prospective #Tory candidate for #EBC is pictured at #SandownPark in his campaign literature that landed on my doorstep this morning vowing to protect #Esher’s green spaces. Or is he marking the spot where the foundations are going in?

[Cllr Richard Williams @CllrWilliamsERA]

Still no news from @RobertJenrick about building on #Sandown. Has chum @didoharding swung it her way? Must be holding off bad news for #esher until after May 6 elections knowing @ElmbridgeCons wld be hammered at polls if he gives ok. #chumocracy #greenbelt

[Simon Leifer @SimonLeifer]

@NadiaWhittomeMP Peaceful demonstrations absolutely fine but failing to condemn wanton acts of arson and attacks on property endangering lives by those non peaceful protesters? Shame on you.

[Simon Leifer @SimonLeifer]

@SW_Help @MonsterROW1 Are train drivers allowed to do this?

[Simon Leifer @SimonLeifer]

@SW_Help @MonsterROW1 It was the 07.31 from Esher to London Waterloo. I’m still livid.
