Conservatives in South Gloucestershire are promising voters better school standards, record recycling rates and free parking in council-owned car parks in the upcoming local election. Voters will head to the polls on Thursday, May 4, to choose who should run South Gloucestershire Council.
The Conservative party is defending a narrow majority of five seats from the Liberal Democrats and Labour in South Gloucestershire. In a revealing interview, the current council leader, Toby Savage, promised that local public services would continue to improve if his party keeps control.
Asked what’s better about South Gloucestershire compared to four years ago — the last time local elections took place — Cllr Savage pointed to improved school standards, recycling rates and record levels of house building taking place within the district.
