Great to spend some time in #Tynedale yesterday with @Robbie4PCC - the @Conservatives candidate for @northumbriapol Police + Crime Commissioner. As a local @N_landCouncil County Councillor Robbie knows #Northumberland really well + will do an outstanding job if elected.
The By-Election is on 18 July 2019 as Vera Baird has resigned, and polling cards have already gone out. I am looking forward to campaigning for @Robbie4PCC + ensuring we prioritise the importance of keeping all our communities safe
Robbie + I discussed 2 key priorities for #Tynedale on his visit to Stocksfield, Mickley& Prudhoe:
- that the police use resources (which have recently gone up) properly
+ that the @northumbriapol do not forget rural areas - rural #Northumberland often felt ignored by Vera Baird
In particular we discussed the @hexhamcourant campaign, which I support, as to the inappropriate use of Community Resolution Orders for serious offences.

But most importantly I look forward to @Robbie4PCC campaigning for all across the region - whether it is discussing Operation Checkpoint or outlining his ideas + innovative solutions to anti social behaviour: I am sure that he is the man for this important job #NorthumbriaPCC
