Alicia Kearns MP has been chosen by the Conservative Selection Committee of Rutland and Stamford to be their candidate at the next election. 


Due to the decisions of the Boundary Commission, there was no option to stand again as MP for Rutland and Melton as our constituency is being split in half. Alicia says she made strong representations against dividing Rutland and Melton . 

Two new associations are being formed to represent the new constituencies of:

- Melton and Syston, and 

- Rutland, Stamford and the Stamford and Harborough Villages 

Alicia said "Melton and the Vale will forever remain in my heart, I truly love our very special part of our country, and I will continue to serve all our communities across Rutland and Melton tirelessly until the next election and to keep delivering on my promises. 

I'm proud that in Melton and the Vale diggers are finally in the ground after a 50-year wait for the MMDR, we now have the go-ahead for a new GP practice, a great new rural crime team, new CCTV, increased train services at Bottesford, and we secured our £23m levelling up bid. 

I also delivered on my promise of a new hare coursing law, support in particular for dairy farmers, as well as funds for local community pubs and making sure Melton Town got its new football pitch." 

A Melton and Syston selection committee has today selected Ed Argar, currently MP for Charnwood, as the Conservative candidate at the next election.
