At the next General Election Nigel Rock will contest the new constituency of Kenilworth & Southam on behalf of the Liberal Democrats.
This is one of only 13 brand new constituencies created in in the United Kingdom as a result of the most recent Boundary Commission review.
All the local polling evidence shows that the Liberal Democrats will be the main challenger to the Conservatives here. There is not a single Labour county or district/borough councillor in the whole of the new constituency.
Nigel Rock lets the sun do the work!
Wed 3rd Feb 2010
Nigel Rock, the Liberal Democrats' Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for the new constituency of Kenilworth and Southam, has generated his first solar electricity from the new 2.6kW solar photo-voltaic panels on the roof of his Napton home. And even in the pale sunshine of winter the panels are generating significant amounts of electricity, which Nigel can either consume at home or sell to the National Grid.

Tories Might Undermine Local Postman Role

Liberal Democrats have learned that Stratford District Council is prepared to undermine the role of the local 'postie' in South Warwickshire. In response to a question from Councillor Nigel Rock (Lib Dem - Stockton and Napton), Councillor Sue Wixey, the Conservative Cabinet Member, said that decisions on how the Council deals with its mail 'will be based wholly on the business case', and made it clear that no consideration would be given to the wider role that Royal Mail postal deliveries play in villages and towns across the rural area.

"I hate to say it, but only one party leader seems to have grasped that, if you construct a system where unskilled people are worse off by taking a job than by staying on welfare, they remain trapped in poverty - and that is Nick Clegg. "
Lord Norman Tebbit
Daily Telegraph online - 13 Jan
"It's unbelievable that the Tories are still planning to cut taxes for a handful of millionaires when the majority of people across the country are feeling the squeeze. We need fair tax cuts that put money back in the pockets of ordinary people. The Tory sums simply do not stack up. It is irresponsible and highly misleading for George Osborne to continue to pretend that they do. "
