Additional quotes by Norman Lamb

I am frequently frustrated by the EU and will always argue the case for reform to make it more decentralised and more accountable, but when it comes to a decision about being in or out I am clear that we have to be in, making the case for reform rather than walking away.

Brexit is at the front of many people’s minds in this election, and my position is clear. Although I voted to Remain, I am a democrat and I accept the outcome of the referendum. Now that the people have voted to leave the EU, I will fight to make sure North Norfolk gets the best possible deal from negotiations – for local businesses, jobs, and public services.

I have deep criticisms of the EU and believe it needs fundamental reform to make it more dynamic, flexible and less centralised. But I felt and still feel that it’s better to fight for change from within. I voted remain but I am a democrat and I believe we have a duty to try to make Brexit work.
