{"pk":5643,"title":"Mike Whitby - Conservatives delivering the change we need: a cleaner, greener, safer Harborne","description":"AFter 20 years of Labour mismanagement in Birmingham we inherited a weak, inefficient and underperforming Council according to the Government's own inspectors.\r\n\r\nNow the Conservative led Council is transforming the City. We are in the 'top ten' performing councils having two green flags with the Government's own watchdog praising the Council for value for money, above average improving services and quality of life for the citizens of Birmingham.\r\n\r\n\r\nMike Whitby working for Harborne all year round\r\n\r\nMike Whitby, Harborne Ward Councillor and Leader of Birmingham City Counciil says: \"Since the by-election of 1997 when I first became one of your Harborne Councillors, I have enjoyed involving myself in every aspect that involves our community - meeting many of you, supporting many local organisations and campaigning on local issues of concern. I am delighted I have been able to deliver the first new Public Swimming Baths in Birmingham for 20 years right here in Harborne.\"\r\n\r\n\"Your concerns are my concerns\"","party":{"party_id":"party:52","party_name":"Conservative and Unionist Party"},"people":[],"images":[{"image":"https://images.electionleaflets.org/leaflets/ec628c75c0ee7cbc69c49b4d5a5a706b.jpg","image_type":null},{"image":"https://images.electionleaflets.org/leaflets/32e1272769e1dcdcb8ae909af9ab3c0e.jpg","image_type":null}],"first_page_thumb":"https://images.electionleaflets.org/thumbs/350/leaflets/ec628c75c0ee7cbc69c49b4d5a5a706b.png","date_uploaded":"2010-05-14T01:44:16+01:00","date_delivered":"2010-04-14T00:00:00+01:00","status":"live"}
