Elwyn Watkins - Parliamentary Spokesperson for Oldham East & Saddleworth
As Oldham East & Saddleworth Parliamentary Spokesperson I will be campaigning on behalf of local people.
Like many local people I am particularly concerned about crime - together with the Liberal Democrats I am campaigning for an extra 10,000 police on the street.
We are calling for a £700 tax cut to put money back into people's pockets.
I am also fighting for more jobs and investment in Oldham, Lees, Saddleworth, Royton, Shaw & Crompton.
To help with my campaign, ask a question or for more information please contact me at elwyn@elwynwatkins.co.uk.
I can also be reached by phone or post - please see the contacts page.
