Thank you all so much for your support over the last few months, and crucially – for voting for me and the Lib Dems! Obviously we were disappointed not to win, but we were pleased with the result – we pushed Labour into a low third, took votes off both Labour and the Conservatives, increased the number of our votes by a whopping 40%, increased our share of the vote to nearly 30%, and moved ourselves into a strong second place with 16,347 votes! Now we’re the only real challengers to the Tories!

With your help we can go from strength to strength. If you’re interested in becoming a member and delivering a few leaflets every now and then, please get in contact. It will really help us have a better chance next time!

I was born and raised in Suffolk. I grew up in Walberswick and went to schools in Southwold, Halesworth, Bungay and Framlingham. And, I have family up and down the constituency and across Suffolk more broadly. I know this area, I love this area and I believe we deserve better.

For the last four years, I have worked for the Commonwealth Secretariat, an organisation that works with developed and developing countries to tackle issues such as climate change, gender inequality and extreme poverty.

I believe this election offers an opportunity to do something different, to end the domination of the other two parties and make a fresh start for British politics.

I would be very proud to represent my local area in Parliament, fighting for Suffolk Coastal and for a greener, fairer and more prosperous Britain.
