Questions, questions, questions

Speaking to more than 20,000 local residents

In the next few months Ashford Liberal Democrats will be undertaking their most extensive (and expensive!) survey to date as they (and Royal Mail) deliver a FREEPOST survey to more than 20,000 Ashford, Tenterden and surrounding village residents.

As well asking a number of key national questions the survey will also address a number of local and regional issues including Operation Stack, Eurostar and the government treatment of the Ghurkas.

The survey will arrive in an unsealed envelope which can be re-used to return the survey using our

FREEPOST address.

Chris Took, Ashford's Lib Dem Parliamentary candidate told this website "communicating with and listening to voters is THE most important thing any MP or potential MP can do. We regularly send out FOCUS leaflets to areas where we have Lib Dem councillors. What this survey is about is connecting with those areas that do not have a local Lib Dem and letting the people that live in those areas know that we are campaigning, that we are listening and we don't just shove paper through the letterbox when there's an election around the corner!"
