Liberal Democrats announce candidate for Lancaster and Fleetwood
Liberal Democrat candidate
Robin Long
Robin Long is pleased to have been selected as the Liberal Democrat candidate for the Lancaster and Fleetwood constituency in the 2017 General Election.
Robin has lived in Lancaster for nearly 13 years, he has built a career here as a Physicist at Lancaster University, and lives here with his wife and two children.
Robin believes that too many MPs have forgotten what they were elected for - to serve the people - and he wants to change this: "Policies are often based on beliefs and ideological nonsense rather than on reason, they are often not thought through or fully investigated before implementation. This is most obvious in education where the government seems to be in denial about the fact that schools have seen real term cuts to their budgets, and pre-schools are facing the prospect of closure as the government is not providing enough money to cover up to 30 hours of free childcare."
This is your chance to change the direction of our country. Liberal Democrats want to fight against the Tories' hard Brexit, not just wave it through without opposition like Labour. We believe that the people, not parliament, not cabinet, and certainly not just the Prime Minister should have the final say on any Brexit terms!
If you want to take back control from politicians, and fight for a country that is Open, Tolerant and United vote for the Liberal Democrats.
