The Conservatives will always back local businesses. This means backing the people who get up early, take risks and roll up their sleeves to keep our towns, villages and high streets thriving. 🛍️☕🌾

Shadow Chancellor, Rt Hon. Sir Mel Stride MP has been standing up for businesses by campaigning against rising costs, supporting pubs and hospitality, and we will:

💰 Abolish business rates for 1000s of high street businesses including pubs and shops.

⚡️ Cut electricity bills for businesses with our Cheap Power Plan.

👮 Hire 10,000 extra police to crush crime on our high streets.

✂️ Cut red tape for businesses.

✉️ Defend key pillars of the community such as post offices, pubs and pharmacies.

Across the South Cotswolds we will continue championing the small businesses, family firms and rural employers that are the backbone of our local economy.

🎶 Shindig Festival- I requested a review of the license upon learning controversial punk act, Bob Vylan would be headlining.

💃 I absolutely support festivals and live music for all the benefits they bring to the local economy not to mention the enjoyment they bring to all who attend.

📅 I also initiated the review very soon after the headline act was announced at the beginning of March. Timetabling at Wiltshire Council is what has meant the hearing was only held today.

🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒 The headline act of Bob Vylan called into question some of the objectives of the Licensing Act 2003, specifically the protection of children as this is advertised as a family friendly event.

🗣️ I am very much an advocate of free speech, I don’t think anyone should face criminal consequences for saying unpleasant things, but I don’t think local authorities should issue licenses to provide them a platform for such hateful comments.

🏛️It was in the public interest to review this license and the committee agreed as there were enough grounds to initiate the review. I have just come out of the license hearing and there will be no change to the license but the organisers have engaged and put in place some mitigation to prevent the act using the stage to communicate some of his more unpleasant rhetoric.

This is not about opposing festivals or live music- It’s about drawing a clear line against antisemitism and the climate of fear and intimidation that is normalising hatred of jews.

At a time when antisemitic abuse and violence against British Jews is rising across the UK, we cannot stay silent while performers accused of spreading antisemitic rhetoric are given a platform.

We stand with British Jews and are calling on Wiltshire Council to review Shindig Festival’s licence while Bob Vylan remains on the lineup.

If you believe antisemitism has no place in our communities or culture, support the review.

We’ve been at the Planning Hearing today for the proposed Lime Down Solar development.

It is humbling to see so many members of the community united by and fighting against this development of a scale completely inappropriate for its surroundings.

The with as Secretary of State put in place protections against large scale solar of this kind.

It’s time for Ed Milliband to listen to the local community and don’t allow Lime Down Solar to go ahead.
