Jim, and groups of dedicated Liberal Democrat volunteers have been out and about in Longwell Green speaking to residents and delivering the latest campaign leaflet.

It's been brilliant to hear the views of so many people on the doorstep, and to receive so many messages of support for the Lib Dem campaign - even from voters who would normally vote for other parties but who understand the risk of letting Reform in here is too great.

Jim and the whole team appreciate the support and are delighted that people are pledging to to vote Liberal Democrat on July 23rd.

Local Liberal Democrat volunteers are delivering the first by-election leaflet across Longwell Green ward.

The leaflet, featuring a statement from Jim, his priorities when elected and a summary of why we can't let Reform UK win in Longwell Green is being distributed now.

If you live in Longwell Green ward and haven't received one yet, please keep an eye on your doormat. It's on its way!

Please support Jim and your local Liberal Democrats with your vote on Thursday 23rd July.

Elections here are usually a close fight between the Lib Dems and the Conservatives but this election is different - with the Conservatives in disarray, Reform UK are the main challenger.

We don't believe the divisive, regressive policies of Reform UK have any place on South Gloucestershire Council. We've seen what happens when Reform UK councillors get elected: failure and chaos distract from the important services that councils deliver, resulting in tax-hikes, cut services and broken promises.

Using your vote for Jim and the Lib Dems on Thursday 23rd July will boost the South Glos administration's ability to continue its important work, and will strengthen the council with an additional sensible voice.

The Liberal Democrats have announced their candidate for the upcoming Longwell Green By-Election.

Lib Dem Jim Corrigan is taking the fight to Reform UK on Thursday 23th July, to ensure that Reform UK cannot get a foothold in South Gloucestershire.

Jim has lived with his wife in South Gloucestershire for over 40 years and greatly enjoys spending time with his daughter, grandchildren and extended family who live in Longwell Green. His background is as a chartered surveyor. He is a school governor and a member of Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic church.

Passionate about protecting the community, character and countryside of Longwell Green, if elected, Jim would become the 20th Lib Dem member on South Gloucestershire Council.

His election would boost the administration's ability to deliver its Council Plan designed to 

• respond to the climate and nature emergency; 

• reduce inequalities; 

• support children and young people to thrive; 

• support wellbeing and independence in our communities; and 

• build better places with secure affordable housing and good sustainable transport.

Please support Jim with your vote on Thursday 23rd July.
