General Election | July 4th

Your Voice | Your Views | Your Vote - July 4th General Election

It has been an absolute privilege to represent the residents of Penistone, Stocksbridge, Chapeltown, Dodworth and every one of our wonderful villages in Parliament.

Over the last four years, I have been a strong voice for our local community on a wide variety of issues, such as supporting the steel industry, campaigning to keep our children safe, raising concerns about immigration and lobbying the Government for better transport, better jobs and more opportunities.

And we’re making great progress on local projects too, delivering the £24 million Town Deal in Stocksbridge, securing £48 million of funding to improve the rail network around Penistone and Chapeltown, investing in school buildings, opening a new NHS Community Diagnostic Centre, and campaigning on local issues like road safety, antisocial behaviour and fly tipping. 

On the 4th of July there will be a General Election, and electors will have a choice. You can either use your vote to choose a Labour candidate, who will follow Sir Keir Starmer in scrapping the Rwanda plan, raising taxes, and letting activists and trade unions hold our country to ransom.

Or you can use your vote to re-elect me, Miriam Cates, to continue to speak up for you boldly and courageously in Westminster, and to keep going with the important work we’re doing locally.

I am the only candidate who will represent resident's views on key issues, such as cutting immigration, reducing taxes for families and small businesses, protecting children, and investing in communities around the constituency.

But I can only deliver this plan, and stand up for you in Parliament, if you support me in this election.

If you want to tell me what matters to you, know more about my campaign or how you can get involved, use my survey to send me your views, or send me an email - [email protected].

On the 4th of July - if you want me to continue to be a bold voice for our constituency - vote for Miriam Cates.
