Going for growth in Grantham
The Xmas rush was hotting up at Asda in Grantham when Nick Boles went to find out how the town's biggest employer has weathered the recession. Nick met with a group of local employees and they had a lively discussion about plans for new housing, the bypass and the local hospital. Nick said, "Growth in Grantham is essential if we are to get high quality public services and revive our town centre. Some Asda colleagues were worried about the effect of a big increase in the town's population on our infrastructure - if I am elected as Grantham and Stamford's MP, I will work with the local councils to ensure that the town gets the facilities it needs to support a larger population."
