COUNCILLOR MARK SMITH ENDORSES FELLOW INDEPENDENT COUNCILLOR GARETH MACKEY TO BE MID BEDS NEXT MP

Gareth Mackey has got my vote. Having worked alongside Gareth as a Central Beds Councillor for the past 4 years, I know that he would make a great MP for Mid Beds.

THE STATE OF CBC'S FINANCES - WHAT WE'VE BEEN LEFT WITH
Central Beds Council (CBC) Independents are coming to terms with the financial situation in which CBC has been left, by the questionable financial decisions of the previous ruling party:

Have you seen Nadine Dorries?

The former Culture Secretary hasn’t spoken in Parliament for 400 days.

@NickFerrariLBC took out an advert in her local newspaper and sent @HenryRiley1 to try and find the missing-in-action MP.

[Cllr Mark Smith @cllrmarkasmith]

HAVE YOUR SAY - HOW DO WE MAKE YOUR PRIORITIES THE SAME AS THE COUNCIL'S AIMS?

As a new Independent administration, we want to revise Central Bedfordshire Council (CBC)'s aims to make them fit more closely with yours.

Here's what you didn't realise you needed today: a dodgy holiday 🎶 acapella version of an 80s tune, angled at the @NadineDorries story.

It's called "The Never Ending Dorries" - you can guess what it's parodying (@Limahl_Official).

PS: We're all still scarred by Artax's death

Fly tipping costs councils vast sums of money. Councils need the powers to seize and crush vehicles of those caught fly tipping. @michaelgove #flytipping

[Cllr John Baker @JBaker_Ind]

Well done to all the candidates who stood, and a great result for @letstalkcentral. Change is coming; we need a modern council that reflects the 21st century. #LocalElections2023

So elated to be re-elected to serve the Ampthill Ward on Central Bedfordshire Council for the next 4 years. The icing on the cake is that I get to serve those 4 years with one of my best friends Gary Summerfield. Thanks so much for everyone who voted for us.
