Our Plan for Coulsdon Town

In October last year, Coulsdon voted massively in favour of change in the Referendum for an elected Mayor for Croydon.

On 5th May we have the opportunity to vote in elections that will bring about that change. Let's finish the job. 

Over the last eight years Croydon has been run by Labour. They have devastated Croydon and damaged Coulsdon through financial mismanagement and incompetence.

They have bankrupted our town, driving debt to £1.6 billion and wasted £46 million per year servicing their debt. Think what good that money could have done for our community.  

They lost millions on property speculation through their awful company Brick by Brick - playing Monopoly with your hard-earned taxes.
They bought the Croydon Park Hotel which has gone bust - selling it at a whopping £5 million loss.

Labour have left our once-thriving town centre to decay, failing to deliver Westfield. They spent £70 million on the Fairfield Halls that should have been cost neutral - they are now being investigated for fraud by the police.

They have cut YOUR services to pay for it all.

Now's our chance to bring about the change we voted for in October last year. But we can only do that with a Conservative Mayor and a Conservative Council.

Vote for us and we'll fix Croydon, and keep up the fight to protect Coulsdon's best interests.
