Parish councillor Luke Viner selected to represent Labour in South Cambridgeshire

The parish councillor says a Labour government will bring a decade of national renewal that will transform the lives of the people in South Cambridgeshire.

Luke will face Lib Dem Pippa Heylings, Conservative Chris Carter-Chapman, Oliver Fisher for the Green Party, Harrison Edwards for Reform and Adam Augustyn for the SDP at theelection on 4 July.

Luke, who works in the tech and security sector, said: “I am honoured to have been selected as Labour’s parliamentary candidate for South Cambridgeshire, my home for my entire professional life.

“I’m looking forward to continuing to meet residents all across our beautiful constituency, to address your priorities, and give Britain its future back.

“I also, however, see the challenges faced by the local community after 14 years of a disastrous Tory government, whose levelling up programme has failed to address inequality in places like South Cambridgeshire.

“I think it is important that the people of Fulbourn, Melbourn, Cherry Hinton, and all our towns and villages up to and including parts of Cambridge, have an opportunity to vote for a Labour candidate and support the policies that will transform South Cambridgeshire and Britain.

“Only a Labour government can deliver the change that South Cambridgeshire needs: getting the NHS back on its feet and taking back our streets to tackle rural crime and anti-social behaviour.

“I will give voice to the hard-working people of this community and fight to make sure that jobs and opportunities are brought back to South Cambridgeshire.”
