Henry Smith is

Leader of West Sussex County Council and

Crawley's Conservative Parliamentary Spokesman

Welcome and thanks for visiting.

Being an elected representative is an honour and the opportunity to serve in public life a privilege. I believe people’s aspirations are the same. It doesn’t what background you are from, the majority strive and believe in the same things:

• We all want the best education for our children
• We all want reliable healthcare close by
• We all want to protect the green spaces around us and have clean streets
• We all want to be able to enjoy being out and about without the fear of crime
• We all want a sustainable environment for our childrens’ future
• We all want to live in an independent country, proud of its heritage but interconnected with an ever shrinking world
• We all want to keep more of the money we work harder to earn, rather than the government taking more in tax and spending it less efficiently than we can on our families
• We all want to be given power back to decide the future of our local community and country

These aims are my priorities as I seek to speak up for you, for Crawley and West Sussex.
