As the candidate team we’d like to thank everyone who voted Conservative in yesterday’s European elections. Your support is very much appreciated and every vote matters to us.
We will not know the final result until Sunday night (May 25th) when the votes from all across Europe are counted. But we wanted to say how much we enjoyed the campaign, talking to the thousands of people we met and visiting the wide range of exceptional businesses across the region, who are all doing so much to help turn our local economy around.
Whatever the outcome of the ballot on Sunday, we will continue to work for the West Midlands region and stand up for Britain’s national interests in Europe.
Now we must continue our focus on the big issues facing Britain.
We need to carry on reducing the deficit to safeguard our economy for the long term.
We need to keep on backing businesses so they can create even more jobs and give even more people the security of a pay packet each month.
We need to continue to control immigration and fix the welfare system so our economy delivers for those who want to work hard and play by the rules.
In 2015, the British people will face a choice: between a long-term economic plan which is securing a better future for Britain and the same old Labour Party offering only more spending, more borrowing and more taxes.
Thanks again
Philip Bradbourn, Anthea McIntyre, Dan Dalton, Mike Burnett, Sibby Buckle,
