COULD I just thank all those who voted for me in the General Election. My majority increased from 9,200 to more than 21,000 - a source of some pride but certainly not a shred of complacency. I would also like to thank my opponents who conducted their campaigns in a positive spirit and to wish them well. Representing Central Devon has been the greatest honour of my life and I look forward to continuing to do so on behalf of us all. Mel Stride MP Westminster London
