Party manifesto

Statement to voters

I have lived for 22 years in the constituency of Skipton and Ripon. I am standing in this election because I wish to challenge the mean spirited policies that are currently being adopted.
I do not think it is safe to cut £440 per head on average from school budgets in North Yorkshire.
I do not think it is safe to push the NHS to the point of collapse by constant funding cuts and top down re-organisations.
Nor do I think it is safe to run giant experiments with our environment by following fossilised policies. The modern economy will be green and we need to be investing to get ourselves at the forefront of technology.
I don't see how the hardest of Brexits will help achieve any of these things. I think we need to vote again on Brexit once we see the clear reality of the deal instead of the politicians' promises we've had so far.

This statement was added by Andy Brown, their team, or by a Democracy Club volunteer, based on information published by the candidate elsewhere.
