Keighley & Ilkley Conservative Association has been working closely with Robbie Moore MP since his election and members have been delighted at Robbie's dedication to his role and the way in which he has stood up for the constituency during what has been an incredibly difficult period of time.
While we now urge and expect the rules and guidance from the government's new tiered system to be followed, we fully support Robbie's decision to vote against the government yesterday, in doing so opposing the reimposition of Tier 3 status for the Keighley constituency without further support for businesses impacted by these restrictions.
The Keighley & Ilkley Conservative Association knows that this has been an incredibly difficult decision for Robbie and that he has spent a lot of time speaking with businesses and lobbying for further support and are delighted that he has written to the Prime Minister to urge that areas such as the Keighley constituency, which have been subject to restrictions for a long time, are prioritised when it comes to rolling out vaccines (once key front line workers and the vulnerable have been vaccinated).
