Eamonn Ward

Local Election Candidate for Southey

Secretary and Election Agent

Eamonn Ward

Eamonn Ward

Eamonn is an administrator and is also the Elections officer for Yorkshire & the Humber Green Party. He was the Campaign Manager for the Yorkshire & the Humber European election in 2009 in which the Green Party increased its vote by 50% compared to 2004.

I live just outside the ward in a terraced house off Leppings Lane. I am the Election Agent and Secretary for Sheffield Green Party. I was the Campaign Manager for the Green Party in Yorkshire & the Humber in the European Elections in 2009.

Our local communities are under threat and I support the “Living Streets” campaign for residential areas where people can reach a post office, chemist, bank and a food shop within a 15 minute walk of where they live. The Green council group are working hard in this area. They got funding for 10 extra pedestrian crossings in the council budget for 2008/9 and it was their motion which enabled Sheffield to become the first city to opt into the Sustainable Communities Act in 2008. More supermarkets opening close to Southey ward will mean the inevitable loss of local shops.

The BNP is a divisive, bigoted, sectarian, nasty party, with no practical solutions to the economic crisis, mass unemployment, climate chaos or the corruption of parliament. It has a sick history of scapegoating and vilifying black, Jewish, gay and Muslim people. I support the work of Unite Against Fascism who will again be working in the ward during the election to ensure that voters know the truth about the BNP and what they stand for.
