Greens thank Councillor Brenda McGonigle for 7 years of hard work in Park Ward
With elections coming up on Thursday 4 May, Green Party Councillor Josh Williams is standing for re-election. Green Party Councillor Brenda McGonigle is retiring, but hard-working local campaigner Sarah Magon hopes to be elected in Brenda’s place.
Green Party Councillor and leader of the second-largest party in Reading Rob White says, “Josh has worked hard as a councillor over the last eight years, improving road safety, defending our green spaces and supporting residents.
“I can’t thank Brenda enough for her incredible hard work, and the difference she’s made. It’s been a pleasure to work alongside her. Our local campaigner Sarah Magon has been continuing Brenda’s tradition of hard work with her campaigning to tackle Wokingham Road rubbish problems.
“Under this Conservative government and Labour-run council Reading has widening inequality, a lack of affordable housing and tens of thousands of residents living in poorly insulated houses. When residents step outside their front door many are greeted by rubbish, potholes and graffiti. Labour isn’t listening. We need more Greens elected onto the council to work hard all year round and stand up for residents on these issues and more. Vote Green in May for a fairer, greener and cleaner town.”
