The General Election on June 8th will be one of the most important elections in living memory, it will give us a chance to elect, three years earlier than anticipated, a hardworking and effective Liberal Democrat MP who will fight for the people of Yeovil, not the interests of the Conservative Party.

This is a once in a lifetime chance to secure Britain’s place in the world, and to ensure a future not only for our NHS but also for our children & grandchildren. When David Laws and I were MP for Yeovil we fought relentlessly for our helicopter manufacturing industry, often against resistance from the Conservatives, since the last General Election we have seen crucial contracts awarded to the US, which will see jobs, not helicopters exported.

Our party depends on normal people, not millionaire backers or the Unions for financial support. My talented team of local volunteers are already preparing a winning campaign which I am excited to get on with. No donation is too small, but if you would prefer to give time rather than money, there are a whole range of things you can do to help.

We need your help if we are going to elect a Liberal Democrat MP who will fight for you, rather than another Tory who will put their party’s interests above all else.
