LDV at Sheffield Hallam on this important day

By | Tue 3rd September 2019 - 12:11 pm

I seem to have a habit of arriving in places on milestone days. I arrived in Llandrindod Wells on the day the Brecon and Radnorshire by-election writ was moved. Today I have arrived in Sheffield Hallam on the day the MP is expected to resign (2:30pm is the crucial moment).

I’m here for two days of delivery in this handsome constituency. The HQ (above) is in a fine old house with plenty of room. As well as paying my respects to the by-election legend which is Erlend Watson, I was able to chat with Miranda Roberts and our PPC herself, Laura Gordon. Laura was kind enough to provide the exciting demonstration below.

Please come along and help in Sheffield Hallam as soon as possible. The details of how you can help are here.

    Did Jared resign or has he decided the gig is to good to give up?

  • Richard Underhill 3rd Sep '19 - 6:59pm

    O’Mara has postponed his resignation (BBC quoting Treasury).

  • Andrew McCaig 3rd Sep '19 - 7:28pm

    Quite predictable by Jared O’Mara.

    Looks like Hallam is going to become a GE target seat rather than a by-election..
    As such it will be subject to national campaign effects driven by opinion polls. I think it up to us all to try and shift opinion wherever we are, as we did to such splendid effect on May 2nd. Lets campaign whereever we are, whether we can get to a target seat or not. Every person we can convert to Lib Dem is one more in the national voting intention we need so badly

  • Richard Underhill. 5th Oct '19 - 4:16pm

    A constituent has complained about Jared O’Mara (BBC)
