Paul Bristow's policies
Statement to voters
Too often, we see public authorities indulge in cultural agendas.
Full statement
From barmy HR policies like four-day weeks and armies of Diversity and Inclusion Officers - to failing to protect spaces for women. This might not involve party politics, but itโs political.
For example, Cambridge City Council promotes campaigns like Veganuary and World Vegetarian Day. Why should residents pay to be lectured about eating meat? Everyone should make their own choice. Itโs none of the councilโs business.
Clear rules are needed for the Combined Authority. If I become Mayor, there will be
๐ No four-day week ๐ No staff working almost entirely at home ๐ No Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) officers ๐ No pronouns in email signatures ๐ No campaign-based months, weeks or days
Instead, Iโll ensure that CPCA:
๐ Values excellence and public service ๐ Recruits entirely on merit ๐ Respects people with different views ๐ Keeps politics out of the workplace
Where possible, this will also apply to projects and activity that the authority funds others to deliver. Itโs taxpayersโ money. Politics should be left to politicians.
