East Devon’s Lib Dems begin revival

More than 40 people have joined the East Devon Liberal Democrats in the 10 weeks since the local and general elections.

Parliamentary candidate Stuart Mole called the figures a ‘welcome boost’ and added: “I know that local Liberal Democrats in East Devon will welcome the news of Tim Farron’s election as party leader.

“He is a popular figure in the party. He is the right person to lead the Lib Dem fightback and to reconnect with our voters.”
