Inflation and poor ground conditions are blamed for the spike in costs Lincolnshire
The Labour candidate for Lincoln has told how his “profound disagreement” with Foreign Secretaries made him jump from Whitehall into politics.
“I profoundly disagreed with several Foreign Secretaries who I served under – Liz Truss, Boris Johnson, Dominic Raab – about the direction we should be going in. “The Foreign Office was doing everything it could to stop the newest country in the world from spiralling into disaster. The level of violence was unlike anything I’ve seen before or since,” he said.“We were proud to be providing medicines, textbooks and whatever else to support the government. But we constantly saw toxic, ethnic politics. It was a hard lesson about how politics can dwarf everything else.
“Lincoln has many of the socio-economic challenges the rest of the country has, but also has massive high-tech potential with the RAF bases, Siemens and the university.”
