#Colchester MP Will Quince voted against a ban on fracking. A Labour MP for Colchester would put Colchester residents, the country and the planet first. @willquince puts his career and support for Liz Truss ahead of everything.
Today, Labour voted to ban fracking once and for all. Tory MPs who voted down our ban have broken their promises to constituents. This is a government in chaos.
