Liberal Democrats - To Stop Brexit

-

My priorities for Peterborou­gh are better jobs, a cleaner environmen­t and fairer services to benefit us all.

Only the Lib Dems will #StopBrexit and invest the £50billion Remain bonus in the following:

Better jobs. As an engineer and local business owner, I know new employers are coming to Peterborou­gh, but we need higher skilled jobs to boost our local economy. Lib Dems will start by investing in free childcare from nine months and an extra £10billion a year in schools. As MP, I will prioritise recruiting more teachers because they make the biggest difference for our children. We will give every adult £10,000 to spend on retraining and new skills, making the most of innovation­s and Peterborou­gh’s new independen­t university.

Cleaner environmen­t. As a sustainabl­e transport profession­al, I have called for Peterborou­gh’s Conservati­ve-run council and mayor to bring in electric buses. As

MP, I will keep demanding they swap investment into public transport, cycling and walking infrastruc­ture to create cleaner, safer streets with less congestion. I will drive actions to tackle our climate emergency, improve air quality and protect biodiverse green spaces.

Fairer services. As a community campaigner, I lead my local residents’ associatio­n to build connection­s with the police, support services and between neighbours. I volunteer with the homeless. I win grants. But charities and volunteeri­ng are not enough. As MP, I will keep working to #StopBrexit which has cost £76billion so far.
