MIDDLEWICH MP Fiona Bruce has been made patron of the Fair Votes for All campaign.


The campaign is calling for English votes for English issues to be introduced into the House of Commons as soon as possible.


“I am delighted to become a Patron of the Fair Votes for All campaign,” Fiona said.


“This is a matter of fairness for people in my constituency whose voice in Parliament is currently diluted by Scottish MPs.


“With more powers being devolved to Scotland following the independence referendum last year, it is not fair that Scottish MPs continue to determine issues that do not affect their constituents.


“We should be able to decide our own priorities in our classrooms and in our NHS. I am determined to sort this out and, to this end, have placed a petition in my Congleton Office which I invite interested constituents to sign.”


Graham Stuart MP, Chairman of the Fair Votes for All campaign, said: “I am glad to welcome Fiona Bruce MP as a Patron of the campaign.


“Fiona is a fantastic local representative who is standing up for the Congleton Constituency.”
