Bring Back Euro Trains

Campaign for the return of international trains to Kent stations

General Election Candidates’ Pledges

We are calling on all candidates for the constituencies close to Ashford and Ebbsfleet to sign our pledges that commit them to work with us to restore international rail services to the stations, if they are elected. We are including constituencies in the whole of Kent and East Sussex, plus two in southern Essex that will benefit from the KenEx tram project.

Post-election update: to see the list of successful candidates who are now MPs, please visit this page.

Voters, target your candidates: write to urge them to sign! And watch the Signed tick appear next to their name. They will have received the pledges on the morning of 12th June. Out of consideration for candidates’ busy lives, please don’t write to those who have already signed – those we have awarded our special tick: Tick graphic for BBET pledges page

Notes: if you are reading this on a mobile phone, please turn your device sideways to view the table properly. A key to party abbreviations is available at the bottom of the page.
