Sutton Green Party are pleased to announce that Peter Friel is standing as our candidate for the upcoming Council by-election in Sutton Central Ward on 10 April.
Peter lives in the ward and has lived in Sutton all of his life. Peter works in the financial sector and has organised numerous fundraising events for cancer charities.
Peter said:
“I am standing for election because we need a resident’s voice on the Council. It feels like the Council is just petty squabbles between the political parties and we need someone to stand up for people who live here.
I believe in better public services; I care about protecting our precious green spaces; and I believe that our Council should treat everyone fairly and decently – that’s why I’m standing as the Green Party candidate.
My wife and I have brought up our daughter here and so we know what it’s really like to live here, to use local schools, our NHS, and suffer the declining services from Sutton Council. If you want someone who you know will really fight for the local area to make things better for us living here, then please vote for me to be your new Councillor on April 10th.”
