Stephen James Long
Liberal Democrats candidate for Heckmondwike
I'm a Yorkshire family man who is an electrician by trade. I've seen first hand how the current cost of living crisis is affecting hardworking households. That's why I'm passionate about the Liberal Democrat campaign to make school uniforms more affordable. Please sign our petition using the link below: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/641227 Now more than ever it is important that local services are protected and that the Labour administration in Huddersfield is held to account.
