Claire Young MP backs Kate and Jon in Frampton Cotterell Parish By-Election

Claire Young, MP for Thornbury and Yate has spoken about her backing of Kate Andrews and Jon Lean, the Liberal Democrat Frampton Cotterell Parish Council By-Election candidates.

Writing in the Frampton Cotterell Focus newsletter she said, 

"Like many of the villages across Thornbury and Yate constituency, Frampton Cotterell is a vibrant, thriving place to live and work – and a place with which I have strong connections.

"I first became a local councillor in 2007 representing the former Westerleigh ward. Then, when the ward boundaries changed in 2019 I was proud to represent the new, larger, Frampton Cotterell ward on South Glos Council. We must not let Reform UK win here, so I'm delighted that Kate and Jon have chosen to stand against them for seats on the Parish Council.

“I know them both well – Jon through our joint work as ward councillor colleagues and Kate through the work she does on SEND. They will be sensible, hard-working voices for Frampton Cotterell Parish Council and I do hope you will support them with both of your two votes on Thursday 14th May.”
