We would like to thank the thousands of people who completed the Chatham & Aylesford Residents Survey.
During January we distributed our questionnaire to 12,000 households of which just over 2,700 where delivered in Princes Park. We are delighted at the response rate which has reached 20% in some wards – a very high rate for a postal survey of this nature.
Included in the findings:
*The Health Service, Crime and Immigration are the top issues causing concern for local voters
*Only 37% of respondents support the introduction of ID Cards
*77% of respondents believe Inheritance Tax should either be significantly reformed or abolished completely.
*78% believe a future Conservative Government should continue to oppose the Euro Currency.
*92% of respondents did not believe that local A&E services were adequately funded by the Labour government.
Hundreds of local issues were also brought to our attention with graffiti, vandalism, fly tipping and litter at the top of the lists in Princes Park. Wherever specific problems have been reported we have done our best to get these dealt with.
Myself (Matt Bright) and Pat Gulvin have been busy phoning or visiting the many respondents who asked to speak to a local Conservative councillor or candidate. Many of these issues are personal or confidential so we cannot report them here – but everyone that has asked for a visit will be contacted as soon as possible.
We would also like to thank the dozens of people who have offered to help us by delivering leaflets or joining the Conservative Party.
