Lee Anderson column: Important that we back proper research into conditions such as dementia
and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
I will always call out this left wing ideological nonsense. I believe some children in Ashfield have been put off from speaking and expressing their own opinions during debates at school. This is not acceptable.
Whilst in the classroom, teachers should remain politically neutral.

Whilst Sadiq Khan is kicking cars out of London to supposedly clean up our air, Rachel from Accounts is filling our skies above London with more planes. You couldn’t make it up. We don’t need a third runway at Heathrow.
It was great to attend a UK Dementia Research Institute drop in last Wednesday, to see the amazing work the organisation is doing to highlight dementia.
This awful condition could happen to any one of us. Nearly a million people in the UK are living with dementia today, including 1,357 people in Ashfield.

Whilst I am glad to see council tax being frozen by Ashfield District Council just before another council election, if the finances are so good, then why has the leader of the Ashfield Independents refused my request to have CCTV fitted at the Summerhill Court OAP complex, where pensioners have been targeted by feral youths, breaking in and terrorising residents?
It is in your gift to help our pensioners, yet you do nothing. I am sure many of them will remember this when the May elections arrive.
As usual, I enjoyed my Friday visits in the constituency; it is always great to get out and about to see the good folk of Ashfield.

Hide AdI was delighted to welcome Selston councillor Andy Gascoyne to Reform UK. Andy joins Dawn Justice, who recently made the move to Reform herself, great people who I am happy to work with.
I also visited Crescent Primary School in Bull Farm, which is one of the new areas in the Ashfield constituency.
It’s a terrific school where staff and teachers are clearly doing a fantastic job of bringing up our kids there. In their special rewards assembly, they were giving out special achievement certificates including for reading and excellent attendance records.
The children were all very pleasant and well mannered. Thank you to the school for letting me visit.
