Following on from our excellent results in the 2023 local elections for the East Riding of Yorkshire Council, the Liberal Democrats have been quick to exert their influence on the council's policies.
The Liberal Democrats are now the 2nd largest group on the East Riding of Yorkshire Council and we plan to build on that in 2027. We believe passionately that politics begins at community level, and this is at the heart of our national politics - to devolve power to local people instead of unanswerable officialdom in London.
In the July 2024 General Election the British people showed their approval of Liberal Democrat policies by voting in 72 Liberal Democrat MPs to the House of Commons in London, the highest number in decades.
Only the Liberal Democrats have clear policies to make Britain more prosperous in a way that brings every citizen along. We are united, tolerant and stand firm against injustice and bigotry in Britain and abroad.
In an era of social media snake-oil politics the East Riding Liberal Democrats put your local communities and their problems first.
Space is no longer science fiction – it underpins our economy, security, and daily lives. Our new policy will renew the National Space Strategy, support UK spaceports and hubs, and designate space as a strategic industry.
The UK’s asylum system is failing, leaving people fleeing conflict stuck in temporary housing, unable to work, and separated from their loved ones. Our new policy gives practical solutions to clear up the broken system left by the Conservatives.
The Online Safety Act was meant to protect people, yet its flawed implementation risks undermining privacy, free expression, and secure communication. Our new policy addresses our concerns and fights for a digital future where rights are protected.
