Pledges I’ve signed | Joanne Ainscough

As the election campaign heats up, I’m increasingly being asked to sign pledges. I’ll keep this page updated with the ones I’ve signed so far.

All pledge requests will be considered on merit. I will not however consider pledges that negatively impact on the rights of women or LGBTQ+ people.
