A VICTORIOUS Mike Hall has thanked constituents for re-electing him as Labour MP for Weaver Vale.

I have always worked hard for many constituents and I will continue to do so, he said

I just want to say a big thank you to everyone. Im delighted to have a vote of confidence on the issues which we have fought.

Meanwhile Mr Hall has pledged to try and sort out what needs to be done to avoid the apathy seen at this General Election.

He said: It is a disappointment. We have to find a way to get people involved in the constitutional process.

We fought hard to get the vote and its part of our democratic right.

The problem is that the national media has been telling people its a foregone conclusion for weeks and opposition supporters felt the game was up.
