Liberal Democrat Spring Conference endorsed Trusted, Professional and Effective: British Policing at its Best. It proposes a number of changes to police forces in England around three key areas, which will change the culture of police for the better:
Sylvia & Phil continue to campaign to get all our roads up to standard. The latest successes being Costwold Close and Vicars Walk. We know that there are still many roads in dire need of resurfacing, however it is not possible to do them all at once. Goldington has to compete with all the other parts of the borough and we will continue to press for Goldington's roads to be done.
Kent County Council is due to carry out essential maintenance work on Enbrook Valley, Enbrook Road, Fremantle Road and Romney Avenue (their entire lengths) in preparation for future surfacing. Only one road will be closed at a time.
South Lakes MP Tim Farron has called on Cumbria County Council leader Eddie Martin to practice what he preaches and guarantee to work with him to protect rural bus services.
Liberal Democrat councillors in Stockton have joined others throughout the country to write to the Chancellor of the Exchequer to call on him to raise the income tax threshold to £10,000 faster than originally planned.
South Lakes MP Tim Farron has welcomed news that Cumbria County Council has agreed with him and saved Cumbria's Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRC). Tim has thanked local residents for their support in the campaign to save the centres.
