If Gloucestershire and the Forest of Dean in particular is to continue to have a voice , it needs Independent minded leaders such as Martin Surl.
For too longĀ our County and our district suffered as party political dogma dictated that other areas and other districts were more worthy of investment or regeneration than ours.
I have seen first hand Martin Surl stands up against that party political bias and fights for Gloucestershire and its policing needs.
He knows the Forest of Dean\’s issues, he is on hand and he gets things done.
