The Liberal Democrats have selected Tom Bartleet (ex-CEO of Erskine Murray Insurance Brokers) to stand as its Parliamentary candidate for South Suffolk in light of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak announcing a General Election.
Responding to Rishi Sunak calling a General Election, the Liberal Democrat Parliamentary candidate for South Suffolk, Tom Bartleet said:
“For years our area has been taken for granted by an out-of-touch Conservative Government that has failed to get the basics right and lurched from crisis to crisis - now it’s time for a change.
“Local health services have been brought to their knees, people’s mortgages and rent have skyrocketed and water companies have been allowed to pump their filthy sewage into our rivers and beaches. All this by a Conservative government more interested in fighting between themselves than standing up for the country.
“Every vote for the Liberal Democrats is a vote for a fair deal. It’s a vote for a party that will stand up for our community and our health services.”
