Two Days in Ruskington

With a background in education policy, this week Stephen Phillips QC spent time in all three of the schools in Ruskington while on a two day visit to the village organised by local Conservatives. "Now more than ever, young people are the key to the future," said Stephen. "Villages like Ruskington need strong local schools to ensure that everyone has the sort of opportunities I did. I've met some really dedicated and enthusiastic teachers and governors this week - and some pupils who can put my knowledge to shame!"  Apart from visiting Chestnut Street, Winchelsea and Coteland's School, Stephen and local Councillor Richard Wright also spent time with business leaders hearing their concerns about the recsesssion.  "It's great to have Stephen in Ruskington so early in his campaign," Richard said, "He's listened carefully to what people in the village have had to say and filled us all in on some excellent Conservative policies to help businesses and communities."
