Wiltshire Councillor steps up as Lib Dems’ potential MP

LOCAL Liberal Democrat members have selected Wiltshire councillor, Dr. Brian Mathew to stand as prospective MP for the new Melksham and Devizes constituency.
This puts him alongside Wiltshire Liberal Democrat parliamentary candidates Sarah Gibson for Chippenham, Roz Savage for South Cotswolds, Victoria Charleston for Salisbury and Dr. Brett Palmer for South West Wiltshire in the forthcoming general election.
“With the boundary changes comes a new start for all our communities,” says Dr. Brian Mathew. “Lib Dems, along with Labour and small ‘c’ conservative and Green voters, revolted by the excesses and corruption of the Johnson/Truss/Sunak years, will at last have the chance to vote for change and chose Liberal Democrats, with the serious prospect that they will be elected and ensure fairness plays a part for the future in what looks likely to be a much changed and more progressive parliament.”
Wiltshire councillor, Dr. Brian Mathew serves the Box and Colerne area, which now falls inside the Melksham and Devizes constituency. He said, “I look forward to meeting residents on the doorstep, from Box and Colerne to Bradford on Avon, to Holt, Melksham, Devizes, Calne South and all the villages in between, and hearing their concerns, worries and points of view in the weeks and months ahead, until Sunak finally bites the bullet and calls for a general election.
“I for one can’t wait, and my slogan will proudly be ’Beat the Blues – Go for Gold!’”
