Julie Ward, Member of the European Parliament for Northwest England, is standing for re-election on May 22nd. There are currently eight MEPs for the whole of the Northwest which stretches from Crewe to Carlisle and two are currently Labour.
Julie has produced an election leaflet to show what MEPs do and is a keen advocate of cutting wasteful spending within the European Union. She has also spoken of her support for abolishing the parliament in Strasbourg as she feels it is unnecessary in addition to the one in Brussels.
Julie was out campaigning in Milnshaw with Cllr Clare Pritchard and several members of the local Labour group on 9th May and received a positive response on the doorstep.
