James Townley's policies
Statement to voters
As the Reform UK Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for Westmorland and Lonsdale, I am committed to driving meaningful change in our region.
Full statement
Having grown up in Cumbria and now raising my own family here, I am focused on building a sustainable Cumbria that can support its residents for generations to come, as well as a tourism sector that enriches our local communities. I am passionate about restoring our rivers and lakes to the unspoiled conditions they deserve.
The existing infrastructure in our constituency is plagued by issues, including traffic congestion and inadequate road networks, which contribute to preventable fatalities – this is simply not acceptable. My approach includes a rigorous examination of road improvement costs to ensure they meet our specific needs and provide long term solutions.
Cumbria's proud farming tradition is currently threatened by disproportionate environmental levies and ill-conceived rewilding efforts. I stand against any policy that diminishes our region's agricultural significance and will advocate for support that enables our farmers to continue producing our essential food.
Additionally, I am determined to rejuvenate our high streets and local businesses through initiatives such as complimentary parking for three hours and reductions in business rates. Implementing a community investment levy on tourist accommodation will alleviate our council's financial burdens and provide vital resources for tackling infrastructure challenges and littering issues.
With Reform UK, my aim is to uphold cherished British traditions and ensure the well-being of our constituents. My platform includes tax reductions for hard-working and lower-income individuals, revitalising our NHS, and eliminating healthcare backlogs. I’ll strive for real, positive change that embodies the spirit and policies of Reform UK, for the benefit of our entire nation. Cast your vote for a prosperous future with me and Reform UK.
