The Liberal Democrat candidate for the upcoming general election, Hilary Myers, will face a question and answer session with sixth form students at Brighouse High School on Friday December 11th, many of whom will be first time voters in the election.
Politics tutor David Bell has arranged the visit, and the students will be grilling Hilary on whatever topics they wish to raise. Although the session has been arranged through the politics department, it will be open to any Brighouse High School sixth former.
“Hilary is relishing the prospect of engaging with the young people of Brighouse,”
Calderdale Liberal Democrats Press and Communications Officer Jennie Rigg said.
“The forthcoming election will definitely see a new MP for the Calder Valley constituency, and the views and votes of young people will certainly have an impact. It is important that candidates from all parties show that they are aware of the need to be accountable to local pople, and as a Lib Dem Hilary fully believes in localism and accountability.”
