Chris Coleman - Bristol North West

There has never been a more important time to be a Liberal Democrat.
Politics is at breaking point and our country is in crisis. It is essential that we continue to campaign to Stop Brexit and remain in the EU. And we must continue to fight for our liberal values which are under threat.

In Bristol North West, the Liberal Democrats topped the poll in the European elections.
I want to ensure that success is replicated at the next general election. I am here to win.
