Elections
A new party in this year’s elections has said political correctness has “become suffocating” and aims to “stop cancel culture”.
Rebecca Robb, 26, is standing for the Heritage Party in Louth South ward in the Lincolnshire County Council elections in May.
She spoke to reporters alongside party leader and London Mayoral candidate David Kurten at a campaign event in Louth on Wednesday, April 21.
She said: “[I’m standing] because there isn’t a party currently that reflects my views and I didn’t see anyone standing for an alternative party. I want to be the person to stand up for people who do have different ideas.”
