May 23rd - The local and European elections are in full swing now and are keeping us all very busy. As the Regional Chair for the North West I was in Stockport on May 12h for the Offical launch of the NW European campaign and the start of our battlebus tour of the region.
On Monday 17th May I joined Lib Dem Leader Charles Kennedy for a visit to Stockport and Manchester where he met local candidates and campaigners.
The following night, Tuesday May 18th, I was back in Manchester for an election rally in Longsight with Asian members of the local community and Sajjad Karim, our No 2 candidate on the European list, a very upbeat and positive evening.
On Thursday we had a visitor arrive in Knowsley, Martin Borges, Chariman of the Free Democratic Party (FDP) in the German town of Moers, Knowsley's twin town.
Martin was lucky enough to meet Charles Kennedy on Friday May 21st when he paid another visit to the region, this time meeting members and candidates in Liverpool.
Martin also managed to spend a few hours delivering leaflets with colleagues in Huyton and Halewood before returning to Germany on Sunday!
Apologies for not keeping my diary updated more regularly, it has been a hectic few days of late, but that's elections for you!
