Following the decision of Peter Kilfoyle MP to stand down from Parliament on health grounds, John Manwell said that as a resident of the area for 20 years, he had decided to offer the people of Walton a new approach.

The Christian Democrats are also critical of measures to intrusively regulate home-schooling families. Responding to the massage of the Children, Schools and Families Bill, through the House of commons on Tuesday, Dr Tom Rogers of the CPA National Executive said that many Christians will see the big three parties as "morally bankrupt" and unworthy of electoral support: http://www.cpaparty.org.uk//index.php?page=news&id=331 ../index.php 25th February 2010 UK Measures outlined by the secular parties to tackle the premature sexualisation of children don't recognise the gravity of the problem, according to Christian Democratic candidates planning to contest coming general and local elections.

The Christian Peoples Alliance party - founded by an alliance of Roman Catholic and evangelical Christian politicians - says that all three major secular parties cannot be trusted to uphold Britain's Christian heritage of freedom and tolerance. http://www.cpaparty.org.uk//index.php?page=news&id=326 ../index.php 2nd February 2010 UK lans by Labour, the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats to impose their sexual equalities agenda on schools are being contested in the May local elections by candidates standing for the Christian Peoples Alliance (CPA) party.
