I wish the rest of the country had voted similarly!
Brilliant result. Well done Duncan!
I echo Karen’s comments – if only the rest of the country had done the same…
Dear Duncan
Nice to meet you on Wednesday in the Quetzal Cafe in BoA. Brilliant achievement with the election. Well done. Sorry about the national result but hopefully the outcome allows manoeuvrings for positive change.
Please support a constructive process for Bradford on Avon town’s people and council to secure a safe pedestrian and cyclist bridge that delicately compliments the exquisite existing ancient town bridge at the heart of our wonderful town. Please help us to make it a bridge that brings together not just two sides of the river, but the two sides of the debate.
Good luck with all you do and very best wishes for a productive term in parliament.

Brilliant result Duncan, well done. You deserve this as you and your supporters have worked so hard and you were clearly head and shoulders above any of the opposition. Good luck, we know you will serve us well.
