There’s been a flurry of news about other parties today, so to balance things up a bit, here’s a reminder that you can find our case for voting Liberal Democrat in the European elections in a handy five minutes or so summary over on our European manifesto site. It starts:
The Liberal Democrats will work through the European Union to ensure:
- A stronger economy, more jobs and more opportunity for businesses
- More action to stop climate change and protect the environment.
- More criminals are caught, such as terrorists, gangsters and paedophile networks, and our civil liberties are upheld.
Britain’s Liberal Democrat MEPs play a leading role in the wider group of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe (ALDE) which is the powerful third force in the Parliament, often casting decisive votes.
