Some local Conservatives are unhappy with re-selection of twice defeated Stephen Day to be their candidate in the Cheadle by-election on the 14th July. The election will be a straight fight between local Lib Dem choice Cllr Mark Hunter and the Conservatives.

However just a few weeks ago, Bramhall Conservative Councillor Paul Bellis called for Stephen Day to be ditched as the local Conservative candidate in the Stockport Times. Cllr Bellis wrote, "There is no doubt that we will have to change our local candidate."

"Surely it is now time to look to the future after he [Mr Day] was defeated for a second time."

    If you are a resident of the Cheadle constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.

    • If you agree, Mark Hunter MP, the Liberal Democrats, and their elected representatives may use the information you provide to contact you about issues you may find of interest. Some of the contacts may be automated. You can opt out of these contacts at any time by contacting us.
