Cllr Martin Rowley said, “This is a common-sense motion that deserves cross party support. It’s well thought out, deliverable, safe, and good for the environment. I call on other parties to lay aside ‘political point scoring’ and take action to get York moving again’

City of York Conservative Group has reacted to the first budget from John Healey as ignoring all the main issues the country faces, with an increasingly clueless and directionless government. Conservatives react to ‘Bottling Budget’ | York yorkconservatives.co.uk/news…

Papers published last night brought a stark wake up call to years of misrunning of the city’s council with York facing an incredible £32.3 million budget gap over the next two years. Even worse, Labour wants to borrow more to try to solve the problem! yorkconservatives.co.uk/news…

Of course, the announcement of the black hole comes in the same year that Labour’s botched Station Gateway project went nearly £30 million over budget... yorkconservatives.co.uk/news…

After months of dithering and delay, Conservative pressure has finally forced Labour to approve Jackdaw. This should be the start, not the end. Labour must approve Rosebank, end the ban on new drilling licences, and scrap the Energy Profits Levy.

Criminals should be behind bars, not released early because prisons are full. We have a plan to build 50,000 new prison places and end Labour’s early release.

Borrowing up. Inflation up. Labour have lost control of the economy. And in next week's Budget, you'll pay for it.

Labour’s answer to everything? More tax. Ours? Back the businesses keeping our high streets alive and make it cheaper to give young people their first jobs.

Whilst the letter is aimed at Green Party councillors, there are not any in York so Conservative Group Leader Cllr Chris Steward has urged the York Green Party to condemn the motion on behalf of past and future Green Party councillors.

York’s reputation was built by Romans & Vikings, by chocolate, by Rowntree & Terry’s, by the railway, by two universities & so much more. So little of it was built by City of York Council, which tends to take the glory while blocking future success. yorkconservatives.co.uk/news…

A FOI request submitted by a York resident to City of York Council has found no trace of any campaigning by Luke Charters MP for road repairs to be done, despite claims by the Labour MP that he was 'doing all [he] can to push for improvements'. yorkconservatives.co.uk/news…

Given City of York Council has responsibility for road maintenance, there would be records of letters, emails & phone calls if the York Outer MP was being honest. Without any evidence of this, residents will conclude that the claims were dishonest & their MP cannot be trusted.
