European election message from the Welsh Liberal Democrats

We are the party of remain, in Wales and across the UK. We were the first party to call for a referendum on the final Brexit deal. Even on June 25th 2016 we were loudly and proudly fighting for Britain to remain in the EU. In 2017 we were calling for the people to be given the final say and the opportunity to choose an Exit from Brexit. A time when other parties were supporting a soft Brexit.

For almost three years we have consistently, passionately and effectively argued that there is no Brexit deal that could be better for Wales than our continued membership of the EU. We’ve led the People’s Vote campaign, taking it from a fringe idea to one that now enjoys the support of a clear majority of people.

Local election results in England and poll after poll across the UK show that the electorate values our clarity and consistency. Whilst voters punish the Conservatives for their incompetence and Labour for their indecision, we’re being rewarded for standing up for our values.

These values of liberty, equality and community have repeatedly come under attack over the past three years, threatening our vision of a free, fair and open society. But we will not stop fighting for these values and we are not alone. The increasing numbers on our side show that our values are still widely shared across Wales and the UK.

We know Brexit will be devastating for Wales. We know it’ll leave us poorer, less free and less able to shape our destiny. We know we can and must stop Brexit. We can elect a Welsh Liberal Democrat MEP to fight Brexit and influence the future of Europe for years to come; but we need your help. Stop Brexit, vote Welsh Liberal Democrat.
