Stephen Williams selected for West of England Mayor
Former MP Stephen Williams has been selected as the Liberal Democrat candidate for Mayor of the West of England.
Excited to announce that I've been selected to be the @libdems candidate for mayor of the West of England. Our region deserves stronger leadership, clearer vision and greater ambition to realise its potential than shown by the Conservative incumbent. (1/4) pic.twitter.com/xqZWFGBAJg

The Mayor of the West of England covers the council areas of Bath and North East Somerset, Bristol and South Gloucestershire. It is up for election in the big round of May 2021 elections, using the supplementary vote.
Last time, in 2017, Stephen Williams also stood. He missed out by just 2% on getting into the final round, where he would have had a strong chance of winning on vote transfers.
Good luck Stephen!
