Sign here: Parliamentary candidates with Wycombe Racial Equality Council officials
THREE of Wycombe's prospective parliamentary candidates have put it in writing that they won't exploit racial prejudice to get votes at the next election.
Paul Goodman (Conservative), Chauhdry Shafique (Labour) and Dee Tomlin (Lib Dem) met at the Wycombe Racial Equality Council offices in Desborough Road, High Wycombe, and signed the Free Speech and Race Relations in a Democratic Society document published by the Commission for Racial Equality.
It lays down rules, saying that although electioneering can get tough candidates must not exploit racial issues.
