A campaign by local residents, supported by Liberal Democrat Councillors Anna Fradgley and Dr Tim Martland, has helped persuade the Council to turn down the planning application to expand Lymm Truckwash. The Council said there was no reason to justify building on green belt and noted the proposal would have had an adverse impact on those living nearby.
Liberal Democrats have condemned the latest set of proposals to reform the NHS because it hands more power to the Government, reversing many of the changes in the Lansley reforms of 2012. Local Health Spokesperson Cllr Ian Marks says:
Liberal Democrat campaigners Dave Crowther and Dan Warren have launched a petition against plans to reduce rail services from Padgate Station. A consultation on these proposals has been opened which could mean reductions from May next year.
The last three years' accounts of Warrington Council have still not been signed off by the external auditor, Grant Thornton.
Local Liberal Democrats have joined their national Party colleagues in expressing disappointment at the six-month delay in the Government's Environment Bill.
