We can now announce that Luke Graham is the new chair of the Radical Association following a by-election, and that by-elections for executive member roles have added Jess Insall, Ross Stalker, and George Potter to the team.
Luke is a community councillor from Wick, Caithness, who has been an executive member of the Association since Autumn 2017. Jess Insall is a rising star in the party who has attracted national media attention to the cause of gender neutrality in school uniform policy; Ross Stalker is a former campaign organiser for the Scottish Lib Dems with a wealth of expertise in both policy and campaigning work; and George Potter is a campaigner on a wide range of issues including a minimum income, and a former executive member of the Association. We're thrilled to have such a strong new team put together, ready to campaign for radical liberal values within the party and across the UK.
