Speaking after his selection, Jonathan Slater said:
I’m very excited to have been selected as the Labour Parliamentary Candidate for Louth and Horncastle.
As someone who lives in a rural village I fully appreciate the challenges that many of my constituents have in the need to be able to access high-quality employment opportunities which I will campaign for – fighting for more affordable housing which is right for the constituency with the right community infrastructure, and finally lobbying for better national and local transport links and infrastructure to ensure all local constituents have the ability to travel to their place of work, as well as visit and support our local high streets.
Finally I want to highlight how our NHS been let down over the last 14 years, typified by the current MP and Secretary of State for Health, where I will highlight Labour’s plans to cut the waiting lists, ensuring more in person GP appointments, and greater access to more NHS registered dentists.
