Lib Dems: This is a chance for voters in Folkestone and Hythe to change direction of the country

Voters in Folkestone and Hythe should vote for the Liberal Democrats to change the direction of the country and ensure Britain has a decent opposition.

The Prime Minister today has called a snap General Election to be held on the 8^th June. Lynne Beaumont, Liberal Democrat spokesperson for Folkestone and Hythe, commented:

"This election is a huge opportunity for voters in Folkestone and Hythe to change the direction of our country and ensure Britain has a decent opposition.

"People in Folkestone and Hythe may have voted to leave the EU, but many did not vote for the extreme form of Brexit that Theresa May has imposed on us after being backed by Labour.

"For all those who want to protect our local economy by staying in the Single Market and ensure the people have the final say over what comes next, this is your chance.

"The Liberal Democrats are the real opposition to the Conservative Brexit Government and the only party fighting for a Britain that is open, tolerant and united."
