Promoted by David Agar, on behalf of Steve Mee, both of 112 Pineapple Road, Birmingham B30 2TT.

WE‟LL SCRAP THE GARDEN TAX! Steve Mee and Birmingham Conservatives pledge to bring an end to Labour’s failed and hated green waste changes

■ Causing chaos in our streets, that’s what! Residents from across Hall Green have been telling Steve Mee about the many ways Labour’s rubbish policies are blighting our community. One man from Tixall Road said: “If we don’t clear the leaves from the gutters, the road floods. Now

that we have to pay for a wheelie bin, people are less likely to do that extra work, which means the

council will end up spending more money to keep the street clear. It just doesn’t make sense.”

I‟LL FIGHT FOR A BETTER DEAL from Birmingham City Council Whether that’s scrapping the hated Garden Tax, making sure the roads are properly maintained or securing funding to keep Highfield Hall open.

TIME TO BREAK LABOUR‟S STRANGLEHOLD

■ A tired Labour council. An

invisible Labour MP. A

useless Labour Police

Commissioner. Hall Green

deserves better than this!

Labour already has two councillors in

Hall Green. Do we really want them to

have all three? Labour votes from

Sparkbrook and Springfield give it

control of the district committee that

threatened to close our library. We need

a strong voice for Hall Green in that

committee – standing up for our

interests.

And it’s the same wherever Labour goes

unchallenged. Labour’s Police

Commissioner has consistently failed to

do his job, which is to challenge the

police to improve services. Instead of

being our Iron Man, he’s become the

Invisible Man!

Conservatives have a good record of

standing up for communities across our

city. And make no mistake – if it isn’t a

Conservative councillor for Hall Green

this year, it’ll be a Labour one. At the

last elections the Liberal Democrats

finished a poor third. And fringe parties

have never got anywhere here!

The alternative is clear: more Labour

mismanagement and disregard for your

views; or a Conservative councillor who

listens to and represents YOU.

Conservatives would do for Hall Green

overleaf.

Birmingham City Council elections: 22nd of May with STEVE MEE

IT‟S A TWO HORSE RACE! Accept no imitations - only a vote for Steve Mee can stop

Hall Green ending up with another Labour councillor.

We’ll give you REAL CHOICE and MORE CONTROL No more phoney consultations on wheelie bins or speed limits. More con-trol over your pension and a real EU referendum. Here to listen to you.

I’ll be your CHAMPION for jobs and local business Supporting policies that have rescued our economy and proven Labour wrong. Campaigning to improve shops rather than close them down!

STEVE MEE‟S PLAN FOR A BETTER HALL GREEN

CONSERVATIVES: WORKING HARD FOR HALL GREEN

Rubbish bags and street litter - abandoned by Labour!

A lady on Painswick Road asked Steve

to help her. “I ordered a green wheelie

bin and paid my £35. That was weeks

ago. I’ve given up and just want my

money back.”

Steve says: “Labour sits back and does

nothing while its £62 million pet

project turns our pavements into

rubbish heaps.

“That’s why a Conservative-run council

would immediately scrap Labour’s

hated garden tax, refund every

resident who forked out for this failed

policy and reinstate kerbside

collections for garden waste.”

A TORY COUNCIL = A BETTER BIRMINGHAM

We would tackle street

litter and pavement

clutter, with dog and

litter teams for Hall

Green and other local

areas and a dedicated

Pride in Hall Green

street-cleaning crew.

We would give Hall

Green and other wards

£100,000 each for

community projects like

Highfield Hall.

We would stop playing politics with our

children’s education – Hall Green

Library and other libraries would stay

open! The city’s library network would

also be improved to allow easier access

to this fantastic resource.

We would help you access local

shopping centres by introducing four

hours free parking in all district car

parks.

We would improve safety on our streets

by keeping street lights on all night,

retaining CCTV cameras, setting up a

fund to fix potholes quickly and

keeping school crossing patrols.

Birmingham Conservatives have launched our manifesto for May’s

elections. Here’s why a Conservative council would be good news

for Hall Green and all its people.

Hall Green Conservatives, working

hard for a better Birmingham.

PRIMARY SCHOOL FEARS OVER LIB DEM “RECIPE FOR CHAOS”

Local primary schools have expressed concern

that the Liberal Democrats' new policy of giving

free school meals for all infants - heralded by

their leader Nick Clegg as "really good news" - is

about to create chaos for school finances.

The BBC has reported that the policy, cooked up

by Nick Clegg as part of a coalition compromise,

will cause major funding cuts for local primary

schools - as their "pupil premium" funding

depends on which parents apply for free school

meal status.

What's more, one in three schools do not have

adequate kitchen facilities - and at a time of

government austerity, the Lib Dems, with Labour

egging them on, are extorting over £150m of

your money to pay for it all.

Steve Mee describes the situation as "a recipe

for disaster! The Lib Dem candidate calls this

progress but money is being taken away from

the neediest children and served up to the

children of millionaires. What's more, this is one

Lib Dem gimmick cannibalising another - it all

shows they're just not fit for office!"
