The importance of an MP is never greater than those they represent, and the greatest dialogue should not happen at elections but between elections.

Some argue that a vote for an independent candidate is a wasted vote, but is it?
-
Are there benefits to an MP who has their whole focus on their constituent?
-
Are there benefits to an MP who does not follow the party line?
-
Are there benefits to having an MP who is not influenced by unions or business groups?
-
Are there benefits to having an MP who has a plan for their constituents rather than a one-size-fits-all national agenda being peddled as "bespoke community solutions"?
My promise
The importance of an MP is never greater than those they represent, and the greatest dialogue should not happen at elections but between elections.
I will fight with everything I have to raise your voice at Westminster to an unprecedented level; your voice will be central to everything I do. Witney and the surrounding towns and villages must be heard and placed at the centre of British politics in order to create the future we require. With an MP who is not preoccupied with party politics and personal positions of power, I will use this time to develop our area into what it can and should be. I will be seeking out your voice; if that be individuals or collective sectors, your voice will be at the centre of everything I do. I promise I will not become star-struck by the lights of Westminster and the distractions it brings, but be the champion in giving all a voice.
Community first
I will work hard to encourage a strong community spirit and promote the idea that an individual is greater when working with others and belonging to something bigger than ourselves, whether that be family or wider networks. I will do everything I can to make this place we call home a community to live and work in that is healthy and prosperous for all.
If elected, as your MP I pledge to work within the content of this manifesto - Barry Ingleton
