Liberal Democrats on Wiltshire Council today backed the aspirations of the Wiltshire Community Plan, but called for practical solutions, not just talk.
Buckingham Constituency really bucked the national trend in last week's elections to Aylesbury Vale District Council.

Unfortunately because we were unable to find a candidate for the Wycombe district wards we let the independents and conservative have a free reign. We will be working hard to resolve this issue in time for the county elections in 2013.

We also increased our vote in several other wards. This was a great tribute to the quality and hard work of our candidates. If you add on their loss of a seat in Buckingham South to Labour, it w
