Statement on the Resignation of Toby Philpott as Parliamentary Candidate
May 14, 2007 2:00 PM
Toby Philpott resigned as the Liberal Democrat Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for the Folkestone & Hythe Constituency on Sunday.
Shepway Local Party Chair, Tim Prater, commented:
"Toby made a real contribution to our campaigning over the last few months. Just 10 days ago, the Liberal Democrats took control of Folkestone Town Council, and also form the largest opposition group on Shepway District Council.
"We accept his decision and understand how hard a choice it must have been to make. We wish him and his family all the best in the future."
Shepway Liberal Democrats are expecting to wait at least a few months before starting a new selection process for their candidate for Folkestone & Hythe for the next General Election.
