My dream is to stand as a Cllr Candidate and do vote posters & boards. People in #MidSuffolk who know me believe I would be great as a candidate.
Where I live in Waveney Valley, I've volunteered and helped my local council. I know what people want!
I hope my dream comes true!

The Government says it will publish the Animal Welfare Strategy by year's end. It must come out while the House is still sitting, to enable scrutiny.
