Fighting to Win!

Wavertree needs a hard working MP, committed to fighting for local people.

Only the Liberal Democrats can beat Labour in Liverpool Wavertree.

The Tories always come a poor third and have long since given up on being a serious challenger to Labour.


Local people say, "We need someone to fight for us!"


Who is Wavertree's MP anyway?

Not a lot of people know this, but Jane Kennedy (pictured left) is the current Labour MP for the Wavertree constituency.

Although she has been an MP for over 10 years, most people in Wavertree have never seen or heard of her.

Some local residents have even dubbed her "the invisible MP" because of her absence (except of course at election time), and disillusioned Labour voters are increasingly turning to the Liberal Democrats.


"Meanwhile in Westminster, she has one of the poorest records of participation in the House of Commons." says Colin.



The best MP our area ever had!

While many Wavertree residents are unable to name their current MP, most still have fond memories of their last Liberal Democrat MP, David (now Lord) Alton.

As MP for Liverpool Edge Hill (1979-83) and Liverpool Mossley Hill (1983-1997) David Alton developed a reputation for working tirelessly for local people.

As local people used to say, "everybody knows somebody who has been helped by David Alton".


It's time Liverpool had a Liberal Democrat MP who will fight for local people.





Can the Lib Dems win in Wavertree?

The answer is definitely yes!

At the local elections the Liberal Democrats won more votes than Labour and the Tories combined, and have won every council seat in the constituency.

The Liberal Democrats need just a 19.2% swing to beat Labour (in 1979 David Alton managed to beat Labour with a swing of 32.4%)


A recent poll for The Times shows that the key group of voters will decide the next election are turning away from Labour and supporting the Liberal Democrats.

The Lib Dems are now neck and neck with Labour on 38% each, with floating voters who normally decide who wins the General Election.

Meanwhile, the poll of 1,001 adults also showed that the Tories have little support with just 14% of floating voters.

Liverpool Wavertree is being tipped as a key seat by election experts who are predicting a close battle between the Liberal Democrats and Labour.
