Brexit Party Standing Down In North East Bedfordshire Shows Farage Worried About Lib Dems Stopping Brexit
Responding to the news that Nigel Farage's Brexit Party will not be standing a candidate in North East Bedfordshire, Liberal Democrat candidate Daniel Norton said:
"Nigel Farage's comments show he is running scared of the Liberal Democrats as the strongest Remain party in areas like North East Beds. He knows that we are the only party at this election that can take seats like North East Beds from the Conservatives and stop Brexit.'
"Boris Johnson's Conservatives and the Brexit party are now one and the same. Both want to see an extreme Brexit that will damage our local economy, public services and limit opportunities for our children and grandchildren.'
"If Johnson refuses to extend the transition period at the end of next year then we will be faced with the same cliff edge no-deal as we had earlier in the year, but this time there would be no chance of stopping it. We need to stop Brexit now and build a brighter future."
