FIGHTING LABOUR’S
NEW TAX ON DRIVING
The Labour Mayor of London wants to charge you
£12.50 to drive across the A406. Our Labour
Council wants to charge you to drive anywhere in
our Borough.
Despite falling emissions over the last ten years,
Labour politicians in London, including Waltham
Forest’s Labour Councillors, are behind plans to
charge you £12.50 every day you drive your car.
This will hit older people who will be charged to drive
to Whipps Cross, and people in low paid jobs who
can’t afford to change their vehicles. There’s also no
“residents’ exemption” so all non-exempt vehicles will
be charged.
London Conservatives oppose these plans. The cost
of installing cameras is almost £1bn and the Mayor’s
office have confirmed this will actually make
pollution worse near the North Circular Road through
Chingford and Highams Park.
Conservatives would tackle pollution by changing the

North Chingford clearly isn’t a priority for
our Labour Council.
In 2016 they proposed scrapping the 15
minutes free parking in Station Road,
threatening to make everybody shopping
there pay to park.
Your Conservative Councillors, residents,
shop-keepers and businesses all fought
together to stop this. Over 6,000 people
signed our petition - and Labour caved in.
Chingford isn’t the same as Walthamstow
or Leyton. Yet Labour Councillors think they
15 MINS FREE PARKING SAVED Let’s get it extended to 30 minutes
can impose the same policies here that
have failed elsewhere.
Without a strong, Conservative opposition,
these changes would just happen. You’d park
your car and the first you would know would
be the parking ticket on your windscreen.
Chingford is different and needs different
solutions. That’s why Conservative Councillors
are fighting for the 30 minutes free parking,
both on-street and in Council car parks.

WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE CONSERVATIVE
WE OPPOSE LABOUR’S NEW TAXES ON DRIVING Labour want to charge you £12.50 to drive anywhere in Waltham Forest. We want to see pol-
lution tackled with cleaner buses, more electric vehicle charging points, air-cleaning technol-
ogy, more trees and fewer diesel vehicles.
WE WANT 30 MINUTES FREE PARKING FOR OUR TOWN CENTRES We got you 15 Minutes Free Parking and saved it when Labour tried to take it away. Now we
want to see it extended to 30 minutes, on-street and in Council car parks. This will boost
trade in our local shops and support local businesses.
WE WILL REPAIR ALL OUR ROADS AND PAVEMENTS Within two years we will re-surface or properly repair every road and pavement that needs it.
We will not spend another penny on Mini-Holland projects until this is done.
WE WILL BUILD GENUINELY AFFORDABLE HOMES We will hold developers to their promises and deliver homes to rent and buy at genuinely
affordable prices and rents.
CONSERVATIVES OFFER COUNCIL TAX FREEZE Waltham Forest Labour just put your Council Tax up by 5%
YOUR CHINGFORD GREEN CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATES
NICK HALEBI Nick has served been one of your Chingford Green Councillors since 2014. He has
lived in Chingford Green for over 22 years and Chingford Green is his home. He will
fight against plans for inappropriate development and to get our Council to invest
money into Chingford Green for upgrading of pavements and roads.
ANDY HEMSTED Andy has lived in Chingford his whole life, and is proud to have served as a
Chingford Green Councillor since 2007. He wants to see more progress in making
North Chingford an even better place to live, work and shop and won’t let our
Council take away the Assembly Hall or our Library.
KAY ISA Kay has lived in Waltham Forest for 40 years, and has always cared about her
neighbourhood and her neighbours. She will work to make sure our roads are
safe, campaign for 30 minutes free parking in Station Road and push to make
sure adult social care is first class - making sure that the people in Chingford
Green get the services they are entitled to.
OUR WORK AROUND CHINGFORD GREEN WARD
Protecting our Civic Buildings
Conservative Councillors were shocked at
the rumours the
Council want to sell
off the Assembly Hall
and Library for the
development of flats.
Over the years Labour
Councillors have sold
many civic buildings
in Chingford and
spent the money in Walthamstow and
Leyton.
Conservative Councillors will fight to save
our community facilities in Chingford
Getting Your Roads & Pavements Repaired
Your Conservative Councillors spend a lot
of time working to get roads repaired and
resurfaced. We have had
some success, with
Connaught Avenue and
Kimberley Road recently
resurfaced. But we have
to fight all the time to
stop all the money being
spent in Walthamstow
and Leyton.
Improving our Natural Environment
Just off Sewardstone Road, near Yardley
Lane, the Hawkwood
Nature Reserve is a
hidden gem, right on the
edge of Chingford.
Your Conservative
Councillors are proud to
have awarded the
reserve money over the
last few years to protect
and improve access and boost local flora
and fauna.
Making Places in Chingford Green
With £40,000 pound on offer to improve
part of our public realm,
many of you mentioned
the unused toilet block
and alley next to the
library. This has been a
blot on our landscape
for some time.
We pleased to say that
this area is now going to
be developed as a public space we will all
want to use anytime of the year.
As they say, “Watch this space”!
Conservative Councillors working hard for
our High Street
Over the years, we
have fought hard to
make sure our Labour
Council to get the
planters in Station
Road maintained and
the flowers replaced
as and when they are
needed. We want to make sure people
walking along Station Road can enjoy the
experience, and having plants, rather than
rubbish is part of that experience.
We did it again last year and we hope you
will enjoy them as they come in to bloom
this spring.
VOTE CONSERVATIVE on the 3rd of MAY
Conservative Councillors found savings in the budget which
would have spared you 60% of this increase, without affecting
front-line services. Labour Councillors voted it through anyway.
Our plans would have saved money by;
housing more people in long-term rental homes rather
than expensive bed and breakfast accommodation
using the fees collected from Landlord Licensing, rather
than hoarding this in reserves
reducing publicity spending by £150,000
reducing the spending on expensive consultants, and
budgeting better so very large contingencies were not
needed.
LABOUR REJECTED THESE SAVINGS It’s your money that
Labour are wasting!
