Having been elected as the Labour MP of Swindon South, I promise to:

• Hold regular advice surgeries: being accessible and visible to the electorate

• Campaign relentlessly on the issues that matter most to people: getting good, well paid jobs into the town, supporting people in their struggle against rising bills and diminishing incomes, fighting for timely, high quality health and care services and excellent schools and opportunities for young people

• Support our Labour Council in Building a Better Swindon – delivering regeneration of the town centre, properly managed road works and 21st-century leisure facilities

• Reach out across the town and the political divide: not being afraid to agree with political opponents when something is in the interest of Swindon
