Rushcliffe Liberal Democrats

Want to vote effectively to Stop Brexit? There is only one choice - Jason Billin!

Jason Billin is officially the Remain Alliance candidate for Rushcliffe. The Green Party reached an agreement to stand aside in favour of the Liberal Democrats here in Rushcliffe. In return the Lib Dems will stand aside in other areas so that the remain vote can be maximised.

Conservative austerity has left a fifth of UK citizens in poverty, unable to afford even the most basic essentials.

Since 2015, the Tories have bungled the roll-out of Universal Credit, made brutal cuts to benefits and introduced their senseless two-child limit that is fuelling child poverty.

By fixing our broken welfare system, we can ensure that everyone has the same opportunities regardless of where they come from.

BREXIT PARTY STANDING DOWN IN RUSHCLIFFE SHOWS FARAGE WORRIED ABOUT LIB DEMS STOPPING BREXIT

Responding to the news that Nigel Farage's Brexit Party will not be standing a candidate in Rushcliffe, Liberal Democrat candidate Jason Billin said:

"Nigel Farage's comments show he is running scared of the Liberal Democrats as the strongest Remain party in areas like Rushcliffe. He knows that we are the only party at this election that can take seats like Rushcliffe from the Conservatives and stop Brexit.

"Boris Johnson's Conservatives and the Brexit party are now one and the same. Both want to see an extreme Brexit that will damage our local economy, public services and limit opportunities for our children and grandchildren.

"Voters in Rushcliffe have an historic opportunity at this election to elect a Liberal Democrat MP, stop Brexit and build a brighter future for our country."
