MP makes ‘toughest decision’

-

MAIDENHEAD: Theresa May visited the ’Tiser offices on Friday to choose the winner of this year’s Christmas card competitio­n.

The former Prime Minister had her work cut out, with 260 entries submitted by children living in her constituen­cy this year.

Each year, in partnershi­p with the Advertiser, Mrs May invites youngsters aged 11 and under to come up with a festive design to use as her official Christmas card – sent out to everyone from world leaders to members of the Maidenhead community.

This year’s competitio­n had no theme, and children submitted a varied selection of designs featuring Father Christmas, Christmas trees, snowmen and

even Dr Seuss character The Grinch.

Mrs May joked that judging the competitio­n was the ‘toughest decision’ of the year and added: “Every year I’m amazed at the diversity of the cards that people send in and the imaginatio­n the

children have.

“It’s been another fantastic year of entries and very difficult to choose the winner.”

A winner and two runners-up have now been chosen, with the names to be announced at a later date.
