The Liberal Democrats are on the up. We are back as the third-largest party in Britain with a record number of MPs. We have gained councillors at every set of local elections since 2018. We have won, quite literally, from Land’s End to John o’ Groats, winning the trust, support and votes of people right across the country – but we have never won a metro mayoralty.
Metro mayors have a wide range of responsibilities, from improving the local economy, to infrastructure and strategic transport. It is vital we have liberal voices at this level of government. So far, every metro mayor elected has either been for either the Conservative or Labour Party.
This year, I need your help to change that.
This May sees the very first Hull and East Yorkshire mayoral election, which will create a metro mayor responsible for all of Hull and East Yorkshire. With your help, we can make sure that mayor is a Liberal Democrat mayor.
The Conservatives are in disarray. They have no councillors in Hull and took a battering at the last election to the East Riding council.
Across Hull and the East Riding of Yorkshire, the Liberal Democrats have the highest number of councillors and the highest combined vote share using the most recent local election results. We run Hull City Council and are the largest opposition group on East Riding Council. We stand as the only credible challengers to Labour in the region, with the Conservatives in disarray and the Greens lacking any local power base.
