As of today, 2 April, there are 35 days til polling day. Fewer for potal voters!

This is a guest post by Emily Smith.

Nick Clegg came to Abingdon on Sunday the 29th of March, to launch the national Liberal Democrat election campaign.

Cllr Judy Roberts and I were there in the rain to check out the new yellow Battle bus.

Layla Moran (our Lib Dem Parliamentary Candidate) talked passionately about the work of our local councillors to protect the Green Belt, and prevent flooding. She talked about the significance of the Vale District elections in this important work.

Then Nick Clegg set out the choices voters have in the general election and talked about why we need to really think about how we cast our vote. The mood was up-beat and full of excitement.
