Today is the day Wakefield decides !

Democracy in action.

You've seen the campaigns and hopefully heard from your local candidates. Now is the chance for your voice to be heard.

These local elections have a greater impact on your everyday life than the general elections.

If you are happy with the current make-up of Wakefield Council then vote to keep things on there current course.

If you aren't happy with how things are, then vote for the candidate you feel will represent you best.

This election isn't about the country or the world's problems. This election is about you and what you want to see happen in your local area. Those elected will be working for you , and when we find out whom that is , you can hold them to account.....

But only if you vote !

The council make many decisions that effect your favourite businesses and today is the day to make a choice , so that together the people can decide who guides how ❌️❌️❌️

Through every high and every hardship, through triumph and trial, we stand together here in England—rooted in history, united in spirit.

This is our home, our story, our pride.

So lift the St. George’s flag high.

Let it catch the wind as a symbol of who we are—resilient, proud, and unshaken.

Today is not just a day to remember, but a day to feel, to celebrate, and to stand tall for the country we call ours.

Happy St George's Day 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
