Now the dust has settled from election night (but not necessarily from the morning after)… the last month has been a little hectic to say the least, but when you look at the numbers from the election night - our constituency of Haltemprice and Howden achieved the highest voter turnout in the area, with some 69.2% of the electorate voting, and David Davis being returned as our local MP with 50.2% of the votes cast.To see such a large proportion of the electorate turning out to vote, whoever they voted for, is excellent and shows a healthy interest in democracy. Many thanks for all those who voted.

Congratulations, but nationally the vote was split. I see this as an indicator of having a fractured political system . This fracture serves no one in the long term.
As with all functions in life it must be right and achieve more by working together, even if that means giving as well as taking.
Good luck
