Election letters 2019 / Vote independent for a fresh future

More than ever this farce of a general election has shown that politics must change from the lies and broken promises we get from the main political parties.

It is time for a fresh approach, free of old party dogma where your voices will be heard.

Free from an outdated monarchy, Shetland (and Orkney) voters deserve better and this election at the ballot box you can have your say; the independent way with an independent candidate supporting your fishing and farming issues as well as preparing us all to meet climate change in Shetland and Orkney.

David Barnard your independent candidate will represent Shetland and Orkney’s best interests free from the constraints of old party politics.

Please give David Barnard your vote on 12 December.
