00:00the night and also in the polling stations all day. I'd like to say thank you to my fellow
00:05candidates for putting yourselves forward to represent your parties and running campaigns
00:11that you can't be proud of. Thank you especially to Janine Keegan for representing the Chichester
00:17constituency for the last seven years. Thank you to my family, to my amazing agent Kate,
00:25to my campaign manager Jill, the incredible team of campaigners that have worked tirelessly
00:31not just for the last six weeks but for over a year. And a special thank you to the volunteers
00:38who came to Chichester to help us win. Thank you to our leader, Sir Ed Davey, who has run
00:44this campaign with humour and enthusiasm while highlighting the important issues of the broken
00:51NHS social care system and the state of our waterways. But the biggest thank you of all
00:59must go to the voters of Chichester. To those that have supported the Liberal Democrat vision
01:05for years, for those that have lent me their support in a system that often feels unfair,
01:13and to the voters that have changed their vote this time for the first time in a hope of a
01:19brighter future for this area, together this evening you have made political history.
01:27I love our special part of the South East and to be elected is an honour and a privilege
01:34and I will work every day to be a strong voice for our precious environment, for our economy
01:41and for our local services and I will not let you down. Thank you.
