Natural Law Party announces its election campaign team

Mentmore, 4 March 1997

The Natural Law Party today announced its line-up of leaders and spokesmen for the general election, to cover all areas of policy and all parts of the country.

Party Leader Dr Geoffrey Clements said: "We are all looking forward to the forthcoming election. Election is the time to choose a better government. When we first campaigned in 1992, the electorate chose to re-elect a Conservative government. For the past five years, everyone has been reaping the consequences of that choice.

"In this election, everyone should realise that successful government is not a question of left or right; it is a question of basing policies on reliable and proven solutions. Only the Natural Law Party offers this. A vote for the Natural Law Party is a vote for successful government."
