Former Council Chairman Joins Double Defection
Two Liberal Democrat Councillors, including a former Chairman of Willerby Parish Council have defected to the Conservative Party.
The former chair of the Council Steve Kersey and fellow Councillor Veronica Stone have taken the move in response to David Cameron’s call for Liberal Democrats to join the ‘Conservative family.’
Commenting on his defection, Cllr. Kersey explained “I believe the Conservative Party offers our country a chance it is in dire need of – a chance for change. Change that will bring about fresh ideas and strong leadership. I have come to the conclusion that the only way forward is to support the Conservatives in order to bring about the change of direction our country so desperately needs."
Cllr. Stone added: “During these unprecedented times we have to wake up and realise that the only way to get through this horrible debt deficit and to protect generations to come, is change. When every child is born with £17,000 worth of public debt to its name, people quite rightly want action and straightforwardness. I believe that only the Conservative Party can deliver these criteria.”
“I am delighted to welcome Cllrs. Kersey and Stone to the Conservative Party and look forward to working with them and using their talents during our General Election campaign and beyond.”

Gordon and his cohorts are leading us into an unimaginable abyss of debt.
Why is it every time we get labour in power they destroy the countrys finances? Surely they could learn from their mistakes but we seem to have a ten year cycle where they get in again and do just the same as last time
