Keeping Our Streets Safe

Jeremy Quin

Jeremy Quin was not returned to Parliament in the General Election held on 4th July 2024. The information below is therefore historic.

Keeping Safe on the Roads, in our Communities and Online

This week our local BBC have reported on car meets including visiting Kilnwood Vale to hear from residents about the impact car meets. I was keen to point out that, following police action, these only happen sporadically but they are dangerous, disruptive and impact otherwise very quiet areas.&nbsp
