This evening I joined the Liberal Democrat and Labour Candidates at a special question time event organised by Ramsbottom on line. There were a varied assortment of questions covering the national debt, schools and the problem of anti-social behaviour. The event was chaired by the BBC’s Arif Ansari and as ever with these events the audience did contain several members who could not be described as floating voters! Nevertheless I hope that everyone who took the time and trouble to attend enjoyed the evening.

Earlier today I joined Baroness Sayeeda Warsi on a visit to a small local business in Walshaw.
