Dear Mr Dawson,

It is disappointing that this response is not helpful to the situation. I want to be very clear: I will continue to act on behalf of people who live in the South Shields constituency regarding the Tyne Slipway if I am re-elected.

I have noted your comments regarding candidates’ addresses on the ballot paper but I would be grateful if you would take considerable care and refrain from further and wider disclosure of my address which may put my safety and security at risk.

I am disappointed to see political games being played. I sense some mischief-making at work. I know of no other reason why you would circulate details of my residence in this way.

There are occasions when candidates may have good reason not to want their address to be made public and to appear on the ballot paper other than to state the constituency in which their home address is situated. Please take note that I have good cause not to wish my address to be made public as a reasonable security measure to ensure that my home and family remain safe during and after the General Election, and there is no obligation to do so.

I hope that this clarifies my position.

Yours sincerely,

Emma Lewell-Buck
