Introduction
Westminster is a great place to live - from Pimlico to Queen’s Park, Bayswater to St James’s. We are all proud of its vibrant neighbourhoods, mixed communities and green spaces in the heart of London. We are seeking a mandate at these elections to improve the lives of the people weserve by creating the best city environment in Europe – the cleanest, greenest and healthiest place to live and work, underpinned by great value local services. We start with a strong record, and the pledges set out in this manifesto explain how we can build on our record for the benefit of everyone who calls Westminster their home. The success of Westminster Council is built upon Conservative values of efficient and effective delivery, care for the vulnerable and listening to local people. Surveys consistently tell us that nearly nine out of ten residents are satisfied with local
services.
Voters have a clear choice on 3rd May: to vote Conservative and keep the best local services and the lowest Council Tax in the country OR to vote Labour and risk losing the services you have come to expect while paying more.
If re-elected Westminster Conservatives’ priorities will be to:
- Protect your excellent services and low council tax
- Ensure our city becomes even cleaner, greener and healthier
- Look after our most vulnerable and strive to improve the lives of everyone
- Strengthen the voice of residents through open and transparent government
