The Liberal Democrats have chosen the Kettering-born teacher Chris Nelson to fight for Kettering constituency for the widely expected snap General Election. 

Having been brought up in Kettering, Chris grew up on the Ise Lodge estate and, having studied both law and science, he now works as a secondary school chemistry teacher.  He has contested the last three elections for the Liberal Democrats, last contesting Kettering constituency in 2010. Finishing second in Kettering in this year’s European Parliament elections with 17% of the vote, the Liberal Democrats are committed to fighting for a People’s Vote in order to stop a ‘no deal’ Brexit. 

Members and supporters, old and new have been busy pounding the pavements over the last couple of weeks speaking to people and delivering our key message; Vote Liberal Democrat to Stop Brexit.  Thanks to everyone involved locally and nationally we now have real momentum coming into Thursday's vote.

Our volunteers are busy delivering the 2019 Focus leaflets for Barton Seagrave on behalf of Barton Seagrave Councillor Andrew Dutton.

Kettering and Wellingborough Liberal Democrats would like to congratulate our friends in Corby and East Northants Lib Dems on their result and hard work in the recent Oundle NCC by-election.  Their vote share rose to an incredible 35.1% (+24.6%) marking the party out as the clear local opposition to continued Tory mismanagement.
