South East Lib Dem MEP Sharon Bowles has become the first MEP to sign up to support the Liberal Democrat’s “Reflecting Britain” campaign.

Sharon said: “I know from my work in the European Parliament, where our Lib Dem team is 7 women and 5 men, how important it is to have people in teams with different skills, opinions, backgrounds and cultures. Our Westminster Parliament should be no different. We have enormously talented people, male and female, in our party who come from a whole range of different backgrounds, and we should be making every attempt to ensure we are using those talents at the top of our Party. I wish the Reflecting Britain campaign every success.”

Sharon is now urging other Liberal Democrats to sign up to support the campaign too. She said “This campaign will only succeed if Parliamentarians, Councillors, activists and members from all over the country really get behind this excellent new initiative. I would urge party members at all levels to join me in supporting this campaign.”
