WEST MERCIA Police and Crime Commissioner has lent his support to county MP Sajid Javid’s leadership campaign to become the next Prime Minister.
Mr Campion after Mr Javid was confirmed as one of seven candidates to go forward to the next stage of the competition – the second ballot tomorrow (Tuesday).
He said: “As the Conservatives PCC for West Mercia I have seen first hand Sajid Javids’ vision, leadership and drive as Home Secretary and as a constituency MP in Bromsgrove.
“He not only has listened and understood the support our police service and his community need, he has worked hard to deliver it.
“The Conservative Party and the country needs a leader that will deliver Brexit, then get on with delivering vital public service reform and investment.
“Sajid Javid is the leader my party and our country needs, ensuring we boldly leave the European Union to a brighter future of a more prosperous and fairer society.”
Mr Javid has gained further support today from Ministers Caroline Nokes and Victoria Atkins, following the backing of Ruth Davidson – the leader of the Scottish Conservatives – who announced her support yesterday.
Worcester’s MP Robin Walker is also among the supporters of the Bromsgrove’s MP bid for Number 10.
