It's about our kids' future

Labour Party members here in the South Leicestershire constituency have left supporters in no doubt about their overwhelming backing for remaining within the European Union.

Despite allegations that the Party nationally has left voters confused, we have worked throughout the constituency, says Liz Marsh, one of our European champions locally. In the last month many local members have taken part in street rallies to drum up support for the Remain camp.  More than 40 activists have descended on Lutterworth, Blaby and Broughton Astley to provide factual information, raise awareness and gauge local opinion, using their enthusiastic support for the EU to try and persuade wavering voters.

"Despite coverage on the news night after night," one campaigner commented, "many members of the public are still confused as both sides use conflicting information to support their position."

Another activist added, "Europe has been good for Britain. It has championed workers' rights, protected the environment and supported businesses throughout Leicestershire and the East Midlands."

It's the big day on Thursday - voting at your usual polling stations from 7am to 10pm.  Be sure and make your voice heard!
