Great news from the West of England. Former MP for Bristol West Stephen Williams will be the Liberal Democrats candidate for mayor of the West of England Combined Authority:
The election takes place in May 2021.
His selection was covered in Bristol Live
In a statement announcing his bid, he said: “This election really matters to people’s everyday lives because the mayor decides where a lot of money is spent to improve buses, cycling and other ways to get around, new housing and creating new jobs.
“I know our area well because before I went into politics I had jobs in all three parts of the West of England.”
He added: “Many residents won’t know much about the current mayor because he is completely invisible.
“I’m completely different because I love meeting local people, listening to them and then getting on with delivering what they need.
“I have a strong record of local action and know how to get results.”
