PLAY below our first interview with
Southport's MP Damien Moore, who became the first Conservative parliamentary
candidate for Southport Constituency, in 2 decades of Lib Dem rule, on 8 June
2017. This was our first chance to talk to him since he was sworn in as the
Member of Parliament for Southport.
Damien, off camera has expressed his passion
for Southport, crediting the many small businesses that are in the area. He said
he is shocked and upset at how little help they have had over the years and is
looking to make a real change for them over the next 5 years. He said that he
looks forward to working cross party in order to do this and will shout lowd and
hard for Southport on both a local level, within the Liverpool City Region and
nationally. Damien said:- "This is a great privilege to represent
such a wonderful part of the UK. I'm looking forward to its unique
challenges ahead. I will be putting a powerful message out to everyone,
that Southport must not be overlooked. Southport is a Town that is totally
different to the rest of the area, if not the UK. It's 1 of my key
areas to start looking at is Southport's visitor economy and seeing how I can
help it. I want to see how I can support the many businesses operating
around within it, from local gift shops to our fantastic hotels, bars and
restaurants, that not only give Southport its distinctive looks, but also
provide work for all ages. I look forward to delivering to the many small
businesses the support they require. I will be welcoming all businesses
owners and any local people who have view on how I can do this to contact me
along the way. I will be running regular meetings in the constituency to
meet anyone who has any issues, not just business related, so that I can try to
offer them a voice within parliament, fighting their corner."
