EVERY SINGLE VOTE COUNTED!
For those people of the Medway Towns who voted LibDem in the recent EU Election, every single vote that they cast, counted!

As a fellow Liberal Democrat, I dispute the assertions expressed by my colleague and Group Leader of the Medway LibDems, Geoff Juby, in last Friday's edition of the Medway Messenger, wherein he stated that most people in the UK wanted to get out of the EU.
Medway's Lib Dem leader has broken ranks with party policy by backing an in-out referendum on Europe.
People of Medway have voted strongly for UKIP in the local elections. By returning 41.7% of cast votes in Medway for this party, voters have contributed strongly towards UKIP securing 4 MEPs in the South East Region. I hope that on behalf of these voters, the actions, inactions and statements of these representatives will be reported by your paper so that they can be held accountable for their representation or otherwise.
Medway LibDems and like-minded residents of the Medway Towns remained steadfast and, having cast their votes in accordance with their firmly held beliefs as to what is best (though not perfect) for Britain, have every reason to feel proud.
LibDems - Stepping Out!
