Councillor Joe Rayment will be running as the Labour candidate for Bath in the upcoming general election on June 8th.
First elected as councillor for Twerton in 2015, Joe Rayment has campaigned on a number of issues for the past two years. He was the first councillor to propose the resettling of Syrian refugees in Bath, he fought against the closure of Bath Community Academy, and has been vocal in his opposition to the Conservative led council on matters such as budget cuts and the East of Bath Park & Ride.
Cllr Rayment works for a local charity dealing with alcohol and substance misuse, and homelessness in the city. He has also been campaigning against government policy which he asserts is causing a hidden poverty crisis in Bath, forcing more and more people to rely on foodbanks.
In January, the Chronicle reported that hospital admissions for malnutrition had doubled at the RUH in the last six years, and has previously reported that one in five children in Bath live below the poverty line.

I have lived in Newbridge for over 40 years, working as a Social Services manager with older people and people with disabilities. Now I am retired, I enjoy looking after my grandchildren and having time to campaign on local issues.
