Julia Goldsworthy (born 10 September 1978) is a former Liberal Democrat Member of Parliament (MP) who was a Special Adviser to Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Danny Alexander at HM Treasury[1] from June 2010. [2]

Goldsworthy is now an adviser at lobbying agency Hanover Communications.

Career

Goldsworthy was MP for Falmouth and Camborne from 2005 until she lost her seat by just 66 votes to the Conservative candidate George Eustice in the 2010 general election in the redefined Camborne and Redruth constituency. In the House of Commons she was the Liberal Democrat spokesperson for Communities and Local Government.

Goldsworthy graduated from Cambridge University in 2000 with a history degree, before going on to work for Truro MP Matthew Taylor. Elected to Parliament in 2005, she shadowed the chief secretary’s role for two years – 'good preparation for her current Treasury position' according to Civil Service World.[1]
