Thank You Altrincham and Sale West
Jane Brophy achieved a fabulous result in Altrincham & Sale West. Against the national trend our Party had a 0.83% swing from the Conservatives to Lib Dems. A clear second place for the Liberal Democrats with 25.5%, plus the proportion of our vote was up by 3.6%. The Labour Party vote was down by 7%. There was a strong turn-out of 69% with over 49,000 people voting.
Jane Brophy says: “ A BIG thank you to everyone who supported me and put their trust in the Liberal Democrats in Altrincham & Sale West. The Lib Dems also did better than ever in the Trafford local elections. Cllr Neil Taylor held Timperley ward with a secure majority of 254 and Cllr Tony Fishwick held Village ward with a substantial majority of 755. We had a full slate of Trafford candidates all of whom have done well. Our share of the vote across Trafford increased to 23% the highest for over a decade.
The Liberal Democrats will continue to campaign for our local area here in Altrincham & Sale West. You can trust our Party as we will not let you down. We welcome new supporters and hope you feel inspired to join our movement.

From Party Leader Nick Clegg
“We need a fairer tax system. I will use your votes to cut taxes for those at the bottom and in the middle and close the loopholes for those at the top.
“We need to support our children. I will use your votes to ensure extra funding for schools, to cut class sizes and give all children a fair chance.
“We need to clean up politics. I will use your votes to reform Parliament, to deliver a fairer voting system, protect your freedoms and give you the right to sack corrupt MPs.
“We need a new economy. I will use your vote to split up the banks, get them lending again, invest in green infrastructure and so create jobs.
“This election campaign has shown us that millions of people want us to do something different this time.
“Politicians should work together to solve the nation’s biggest problems.
“That is why, whatever the outcome on Thursday, I believe we should be prepared to work together to fix the terrible state of our public finances and ensure economic stability.
“These are the key steps to a new, fairer Britain. Give me the power of your vote and we can make it happen.
“Together, we can make the difference.”

Thank You
