Stewart Arnold statement on declining MEP post

January 27, 2012 9:55 AM

Stewart Arnold's full statement on declining MEP post:

"After a full consideration, I have made the decision not to take up the post of MEP for Yorkshire and the Humber. One of the contributory factors of Diana's resignation was her illness (as outlined in her letter of resignation) and I decided in the short term to give her the support she needs and not to take up the seat which would inevitably involve long periods away from home. I notified the Party on Thursday morning.

"Stewart Arnold"
