Ray Earwicker puts fairness at the heart of the Lib Dem campaign

March 15, 2010 11:18 AM

The Liberal Democrats have announced they will fight the next General Election on four key principles, designed to make Britain a fairer place.

PPC for Bracknell, Ray Earwicker, has today set out his campaign priorities; fairer taxes; a fairer start for every child; a fairer political system and a fairer, greener economy that will provide jobs that last.

Ray said 'people in Bracknell have been let down by their politicians and are rightly frustrated. I am going into the election with a clear direction and a manifesto that is short, direct and to the point.

The Liberal Democrats will introduce fairer taxes by closing loopholes for the richest, introducing a new tax on properties over £2million, and providing tax cuts of £700 for everybody else.

If your child is at school, we can promise investment to help reduce class sizes, improve discipline and develop one-to-one tuition.

We would also give you the right to sack your MP. The Liberal Democrats are the only Party committed to real change of our political system, flushing out big money and corrupt donors and reducing the number of MPs by 150.

We will rebuild the economy in a way that promotes green technology and creates lasting jobs.We will put an end to casino banking, bring back competition and support local businesses to ensure they can find the money they need to grow.

I will be using these four priorities as the focus of my campaign in the coming weeks. I believe the country wants something different. The Liberal Democrats are different. The outcome of the election will be crucial not only for the economy but for the future direction of our country.'
