Another scorching day on the campaign trail in South Leicestershire!
Great talking to voters in Ullesthorpe and Lutterworth.
Thanks to everyone who stopped to say hello!
I had a great reception in Enderby (South Leicestershire) yesterday, including meeting this wonderful lady ๐
Many residents talked to me about the Enderby Hub and were happy to hear that, if elected, I would add my voice to the objections and If I am elected, this is not the end
People in rural areas have been clobbered by the cost of living crisis and the Conservatives have abandoned them.
We will stand up for rural communities after years of chaos and neglect.
Today on the 80th anniversary of D-Day, we honour the service and sacrifice of those who turned the tide in the Second World War.
We will never forget.
Had a great day campaigning in Countesthorpe today!
A big thank you to everyone who welcomed us at their doors and offered their support. Your warm reception and voting-intention pledges for the General Election on 4th July mean the world to me.

Spent a fantastic morning at the Fleckney Food & Drink Fayre! Loved chatting with the stallholders. Why does the sun always shine when we're in Fleckney? โ๏ธ๐ Massive thanks to the organisers
We received a very friendly response from voters today. It was great seeing the sunshine and a crowd of Lib Dem supporters. Residents expressed delight at the Lib Dem-run Harborough Councilโs investment in Fleckney and a desire for change at Westminster.
Be cool ๐

Untreated sewage is pouring into UK waters more than 1,000 times a day.
Yet water company bosses are still being paid millions.
Liberal Democrats are calling for bonuses paid to water bosses to be banned until regular sewage dumps are ended.
Our amendment would have seen water bosses held criminally responsible for the sewage they dump in our rivers and lakes.
Instead Conservative MPs have voted to let them off the hook.
Can you spot your MP on the list?
South Leicestershire deserves a new MP who will take a stand against polluting water firms.
I promise to advocate for our environment in the next general election.

We were out in Husbands Bosworth this afternoon. The team all reported back about great doorstep conversations. The smiles on our faces say it all.
Delighted to come across The Shake Hut and delicious milkshakes.
Now all we need now is the General Election. #BringItOn
The team had a great time engaging with the residents of South Kilworth today.
We had many uplifting conversations, with people expressing their frustration with the current government.
There's a strong backing for our GE candidate, @PMHartshorn , in South Leicestershire! ๐ถ๏ธ
