His performance will have added at least a good 5-10% on the Tory majority in Hartlepool as well. A lot of places North of the Tees wanting a piece of the development pie.
What has he achieved so far? Genuine question.No surprise with what he’s achieved so far .

He's managed to convince people that paying over the odds to the private owner of a small provincial airport and then pouring millions of pounds of public money into said airport to cover its ongoing losses will somehow transform the area into an economic colossus. You know, like it was in the 1980s when the airport was also in public ownership.
That said, once Covid travel restrictions are lifted, local people will be pleased to have had the option of flying off on holiday from Teesside Airport, before they choose the cost savings, wider options and better flights offered at Newcastle or Leeds/Bradford.

Only been back in the Boro since 2017 and all I have seen is Ben's passion for the region and his wanting to put it back on the map with much needed investment. The opposition however or whomever has only been evident in the run up to the election with very little to offer or fight with.

Well it just shows how much shiite you talk.
Labour didn't get into Government until 1997.
Before that was 18 years of Thatcher and Major.
So 29 years out of the last 42 has been Tory but Labour are to blame for everything?

I don’t find him likeable, I think he was on best behaviour when he first got elected but I’ve noticed recently underlying a Tory arrogance coming through when I see him on the telly.
He is another one who saw the window of opportunity with the airport and access to central government money and wriggled through it.
It will all end in tears, give it time.

Hats off to the airport and long may it continue but as for the other two, fingers crossed, but in the case of the Development Corporation all that says is “Blah Blah Blah”!Welcome to Teesside International Airport

I'm at the point now where I just say **** it, let them get on with it.
Let's see how happy the people of Hartlepool are with their new MP in 12 months time.
Let's see if the PCC can make amy improvements in Cleveland Police.
Let's see if the Port of Hartlepool can see any benefit from the Tees Valley Freeport Area.
They've got nobody else to blame.

The Freeport will redistribute jobs from other places, so expect to see Hartlepool gain from it.
