Chloe Smith MP made Patron of Fair Votes for All campaign

The Fair Votes for All campaign has welcomed Chloe Smith, MP for Norwich North, as a Patron. This campaign is calling for English votes for English issues to be introduced into the House of Commons as soon as possible.

 

Chloe commented:

 

“I am delighted to become a Patron of the Fair Votes for All campaign. This is a matter of fairness for people in Norwich whose voice in Parliament is currently diluted by Scottish MPs. With more powers being devolved to Scotland following the independence referendum last year, it is not fair that Scottish MPs continue to determine issues that do not affect their constituents. We should be able to decide our own priorities in our classrooms and in our NHS.

 

“Unlike Labour who are determined to continue placing their narrow partisan political interest ahead of delivering fairness, I am determined to sort this out.” 

 

Graham Stuart MP, Chairman of the Fair Votes for All campaign, said, “I am glad to welcome Chloe as a Patron of the campaign. She is a fantastic local representative who is standing up for fairness in Norwich. As more powers are handed over to the Scottish Parliament, this basic constitutional unfairness cannot be ignored any longer.”
