All Liberal Democrats hoping to stand as Candidates in next year's elections to Epsom & Ewell Borough Council should apply to the local party by 16th October. "There is still time for new names to be added to our list of Approved Candidates, ahead of our local party's AGM on 9th November", says campaign manager Cllr Julie Morris. "However we do need to allow time for our approval and selection procedures".
Tributes have been paid to Sir Cyril Smith, former Lib Dem MP for Rochdale, who died on Friday. Party Leader Nick Clegg said "Cyril Smith was a larger-than-life character and one of the most recognisable and likeable politicians of his day. He was a true Liberal, dedicated to his constituency, always showing great passion and determination. Cyril was a colourful politician who kept the flame of Liberalism alive when the party was much smaller than it is today."

I guess being by the sea we should expect windy conditions and "blustery" is what we got! As always, we were greeting with great hospitality and the arrangements for the day were explained from the starting point of the Dover Transport Museum.
I have know Ian Tilling for 25 years since he helped to save the life of my son, Lewis. That's a pretty good reason to support a charity where Ian has focussed his life for the past 20 years.
