IF you want a hard working MP who will put the people of Runcorn and Widnes first, vote for Ryan Bate and the Liberal Democrats.

I am proud of our local councillors' record in Halton and of our record in government.

We have cut tax for thousands of people, extended free childcare to more families and provided an extra £16 million to schools to help our most disadvantaged young people.

We’re building a fairer society and we want a stronger economy too.

That’s why we’re investing in more infrastructure for the north west, benefitting workers and businesses in Halton.

This is more than a fight between Labour and the Tories, between deeper cuts or higher taxes .

We can tackle the deficit but still invest in our schools and the NHS.

That is why I’m a Liberal Democrat and why I’m asking you to trust me with your vote.
