As you might expect members of the Lib Dem Voice team are fully involved in the election.
- Caron Lindsay is standing in Livingston. Caron is a veteran of many elections, and will also be supporting Christine Jardine’s election campaign.
- Charley Hasted is our PPC in Barking. Charley works as an emergency ambulance dispatcher and is Chair of LGBT+ Lib Dems.
- Paul Walter is bundling leaflets in the Newbury constituency office plus doing loads of leaflet delivery and canvassing locally.
- Mary Reid is no longer able to deliver or canvass but is doing a lot of backroom tasks for Kingston & Surbiton, from wholesaling to organising blue envelopes and sending emails to voters and members.
So apologies if we are a little slow in responding to emails between now and July 4th. Make that July 6th as we will be at counts and recovering.
* Mary Reid is a contributing editor on Lib Dem Voice. She was a councillor in Kingston upon Thames, where she is still very active with the local party, and is the Hon President of Kingston Lib Dems.

Important by election Torbay next week. Tory hold will give them control of the Council once again after the machinations of councillors leaving the Cons. It is the probable result but interesting to see if the Lib Dems make any inroads to their majority in what is the maybe the safest, very affluent Conservative seat in the town. Judging by yesterdays Birmingham result we will not, Labour went backwards. Is the General Election a foregone conclusion?
Great to hear what all the LDV team are doing in their patches, from front line campaigning to back office organisers.
But Mary, what is wholesaling?
Good luck to you all in the LDV team!
Good luck to all, especially Caron and Charlie
@David Evans – wholesaling is distributing leaflets to our deliverers.
Thank you for the explanation Mary.
And more importantly, thank you and all the other people who do this often unseen but vital job.
A big thanks from me to, whatever people do however little or large, it all helps get out our message and increase our vote.
Mary, you don’t have to apologise. Thank You to you and the Team at LDV for all the work that you do. Sometimes it is not mentioned enough, but it is appreciated and Good Luck to all the candidates and agents and helpers!!
Does anyone know when the full list of candidates will be available?
