Take a closer look at any election stuff that may have come through your letterbox.

Check the very small print, usually on the back of the leaflets, saying where they were printed.

Of course all candidates will say how passionate they are about supporting the local economy, ensuring that businesses thrive, thus creating employment etc.

So, of the 3 campaign leaflets I have received, only 1 was actually printed within the constituency area!

With no hesitation I voted Liberal Democrat. This is the party with the best manifesto, according to the Economist magazine and the party which would offer the British people the chance to vote to approve or reject whatever brexit deal can be negotiated. If it is a bad deal (worse than we have now), we can vote to stay in the EU.

Article 50 is revocable, as has been verified by the legal expert who drafted the legislation. Leaving is not inevitable, no matter how many times the media tell you that it is.

Last year people had no idea what brexit might entail (and a lot of people believed a lot of lies), so it makes much more sense for us to have an informed deal when we are no voting for a pig in a poke.
