Fiona Bruce MP made Patron of Fair Votes for All
campaign
The Fair
Votes for All campaign has welcomed Fiona Bruce, Member of Parliament for Congleton,
as a Patron. This campaign is calling for English votes for English issues to
be introduced into the House of Commons as soon as possible.
Fiona commented, “I am delighted to become a Patron of the Fair Votes for All campaign.
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. As more
powers are handed over to the Scottish Parliament, this basic constitutional
unfairness cannot be ignored any longer.”
