CLACTON BY-ELECTION · 13 AUGUST 2026

Tony Francis for Clacton

Independent candidate. A serious local choice rooted in service, faith and the commitment to listen before acting.

Tony Francis

WHY TONY IS STANDING

Be heard. Be represented.

Tony wants to put local people before party interests, practical solutions before political games, and service before ego.

His faith guides how he serves; it does not decide whom he serves. He wants to listen first, work hard and be accountable.

The election is an immediate opportunity. The wider RevivalUK.UK work is designed to continue long after the votes are counted.

VISION AND PRIORITIES

Listen first. Then act.

These priorities are a starting point for conversation, not a substitute for listening to what people are actually experiencing.

Justice, mercy and humility

Listen before judging, serve before preaching and make sure no one is simply written off.

Revive our coastal economy

Bring visitors, jobs and opportunity back to the coast, support local enterprise and recognise the potential within every community.

Healthier, safer communities

Better access to healthcare, cleaner streets, effective local services and more opportunities for young people.

Compassion with action

Veterans, older residents, people facing addiction and those who have fallen through the cracks deserve practical support.

Accountability for public money

Reward quality, measure outcomes and stop accepting repeat failure from contractors and public bodies as normal.

Protect place and identity

Growth should strengthen the coast and local character rather than erase what makes these communities distinctive.

The election is a moment. The work is much bigger.

RevivalUK.UK is about bringing people together, listening to local concerns and turning shared values into practical service and action. The election provides a catalyst, but the work of strengthening communities continues beyond polling day.
