Dundee Liberal Democrats have today (Saturday 2nd February) welcomed plans published by the party to protect Britain from the worst effects of flooding.
A meeting at the Gurkha Community Centre on Mackenzie Drive in Cheriton today head members of the Gurkha justice campaign outline some key outstanding areas of discrimination against ex-Gurkhas. The meeting was attended by many ex-Gurkhas, others from the Nepalese community, the Royal British Legion, local Lib Dem Councillors and other Liberal Democrats.
All members are welcome to our Shepway Lib Dem Murder Mystery Evening on 16th February, start 7.30pm, at the Newington Village Hall, Newington (near J12, M20).
At the recent Council meeting, Liberal Democrats proposed a motion that Surrey County Council should come out against further expansion of Heathrow.
In answer to a question from John Doran, Lib Dem transport spokesperson, the Conservative executive member for transport on Surrey County Council admitted that the council was on target to under-spend its roads budget by nearly £1 million pounds. Mr Munro said "£1 million is about right".
I was recently called by Meridian TV to discuss the state of Kent's roads, and the backlog of repairs needed in the area. There has been a recent AA report about a £200 million repair backlog across the Country, and here in Kent, a massive £27.8 million has recently been spent not on road repairs, but on merging the existing highways offices into 2 "super-depots" - a plan that seems to generate no direct cost savings!
