"I am invested in this community because it's my community. That's why I am so proud to be your Labour candidate at the upcoming election.

"After 14 years of Conservative government, nothing seems to work anymore.

"Our public services are pushed to breaking point, despite families paying more and getting less.

"Incomes have not kept pace with inflation, meaning that for the first time in history people will be worse off at the end of this parliament than at the beginning.

"Levelling Up under this government has been a farce, from the cancellation of HS2 to the fact that our high streets are dying in front of our eyes.

"We need change. I want my daughter to grow up in a Crewe and Nantwich she can be proud of."

Connor, who has been a Crewe councillor for three years, is an experienced political campaigner.
