Our campaign was widely acclaimed but the challenge proved a little too great this time.
Speaking after the count, Richard Streatfeild said:
I want to thank the people of Sevenoaks, Swanley, Westerham and every settlement in the constituency for placing their trust in me during this election. You have spoken up for change, for values of service and trust, and for moving forward as a country and a community. Thank you to everyone who has supported this campaign in any way, big or small. You all played a part in tonight’s result. My agent, campaign director and the entire Liberal Democrat team have been outstanding.
I am especially grateful to the ten young volunteers who worked tirelessly to achieve a result that was unthinkable less than a year ago. We have a lot to be proud of, and a lot to look forward to!
