Independent Candidate for Shirley Ward on 10th October 2024


Andrew Pope Founded Southampton Independents With Other Residents

Andrew Pope was Southampton City Councillor for eight years in the Maybush, Millbrook and Redbridge areas of Southampton between 2011-2019, first for Labour and then after standing for Parliament in the 2015 General Election in New Forest East, he resigned from Labour in disgust at what the Labour Council were doing to the City and the people in the area that he represented passionately and skilfully.

 

 

With the support of other residents, Andrew founded Southampton Independents and became its first ever councillor

Andrew did not stand for Council in 2019. The Council was not bankrupt then. But having seen the dire state of the Council over recent years under new Labour MP Satvir Kaur's leadership before she quit the Council to vote at Parliament for cuts to pensioners, Andrew spoke to residents. He says:


"Standing as an Independent is different to the Westminster political parties. 

I asked them and residents encouraged me to stand for Council and said that they would vote for me."


So Andrew is standing in the Shirley by-election as an Independent candidate.

He runs his own business in Shirley, PopeyMon Games and Consultancy, a technology consultancy and also repairs and trades vintage toys and games.

As well as many years experience listening and acting for Southampton people, Andrew listens carefully to the public every day as a professional interviewer for official surveys. These surveys are run for Government and charities. Andrew listens and records people's views and experiences on the NHS, education, work, transport, housing, mental health, the signs of ageing and on broadcast media.

These surveys are used to make important policy decisions by Government and campaigners.
