A Conservative candidate for the local elections says working with police to tackle vehicle crime and anti-social behaviour will be high on his agenda if he wins a seat on Lichfield District Council.
Antony Jones will contest the Chasetown ward on 4th May.
Having served as the administrator of a local Neighbourhood Watch Scheme and as a parish councillor, he says he has already had discussions with local PCSOs and the Staffordshire Commissioner to discuss issues facing the community.
Antony said:
“As an experienced community leader, I am committed to working tirelessly to make Chasetown ward a better place to live, work and raise a family.
“I am passionate about engaging with local business owners and residents to understand their needs and concerns – and I am committed to working with local police to address issues related to car crime and anti-social behaviour.”

Cllr Doug Pullen, leader of the Conservative group at Lichfield District Council said:
“We are excited to have Antony as our candidate.
“His commitment to community engagement and his experience as a parish council chairman and Neighbourhood Watch coordinator make him a strong candidate for Chasetown ward.”

Not “a” Neighbourhood Watch Scheme but the Ridwares NW Scheme covering Hill Ridware, Rugeley, where he lives and where he is the Chair of Mavesyn Ridware Parish Council and where he is standing again in the Parish Elections.
He does know there are already two Neighbourhood Watch scheme in Chasetown Ward already doesn’t he?
He may be a so called “Local Conservative” but is not on the local parish Council.
Glad though he’s happy to work with the local police… as are the Ennis’ who have been working with the Police for a number of years in Chasetown.
Mr Jones may have been able to work more closely with the Police had his party not closed down the local Police Station in the ward he wants to represent.
