My politics: Councillor Michael Tunwell
Party: Conservative
Division: Eastbourne - Ratton
I feel privileged to serve my community and to have the opportunity to make a difference.
I will be campaigning for a fairer grant allocation from government for councils in the South East to reduce the burden on the council tax.
Other improvements I will be working for will be the widening of the A27 between Polegate and Lewes into a dual carriageway as soon as possible.
