Paul Hartshorn
Liberal Democrat Parliamentary Candidate for
South Leicestershire
Hi, I’m Paul Hartshorn and I’m campaigning
to be your next MP in South Leicestershire
Born in South Leicestershire Paul has lived in the constituency most of his adult life having grown up in Wigston. He attended local schools and then De Montfort university, where he studied business and finance. Starting a Business Consultancy in 2009 he has built a successful business that is based in Blaby and employs staff across the UK.
In 2019 he was elected to Blaby District Council representing the Blaby ward.
Paul believes the Conservatives have taken South Leicestershire for granted for decades and that their complacency is doing real damage to our communities.
Prior to the next General Election Paul will be campaigning for:
- Better funding for local pupils as South Leicestershire has the worst per-pupil school funding anywhere in the county
- Improved funding and support for essential services as our local Police force is one of the poorest funded in the country and our local NHS Trust one of the worst performing nationally.
- Support for local businesses who have been left behind by the Government and need extra support to survive.
- A fair deal for local families to get costs down, the economy growing and quality jobs in our communities.
WORKING ALL YEAR ROUND
Only Liberal Democrats can beat the conservatives
Elections in our area are a clear choice between your hard-working local Lib Dem team and the Conservatives.
The local elections in South Leicestershire prove that only the Liberal Democrats can beat the Conservatives here.
In the recent district elections, Labour and the Greens were not even close.
- Hobbies include:
- A keen supporter of Leicester City football and Leicester Tigers rugby teams
- Part-time radio DJ on Harborough FM
Cost of living crises
I back the Lib Dem plan to tax multi-national oil and gas companies properly on their massive profits, and to establish closer links to Europe to boost economic growth and reduce prices.
Our NHS
Top of the Lib Dem plan is the need for more GPs . Paul is actively campaigning for more GPs in different parts of South Leicestershire.
A fair deal for tax payers.
The Conservatives have increased our taxes, meanwhile Leicestershire has the lowest level of funding for our schools, social services and Police. Conservative MPs have tried to change this and FAILED
Our Fair Deal
In very tough times, the British people have shown remarkable decency and strength. Everywhere across our great United Kingdom, people from all backgrounds and all walks of life are working hard, raising families, helping others and playing by the rules – but finding it harder and harder to make ends meet.
Now more than ever, people deserve a fair deal.
More and more people are turning to the Liberal Democrats to put an end to this terrible Conservative Government. They know that every vote for the Liberal Democrats is a vote to elect a strong local champion like me who will fight for a fair deal for you and your community. READ MORE HERE
