Brentwood Liberal Democrats

Thank you for your support

I would like to say a big thank you to all the residents who came out and voted for the Liberal Democrat candidates at the recent Brentwood Borough Council elections. We were delighted that Cllr Vicky Davies held her seat in Pilgrims Hatch with an increased majority and that Cllr James Sapwell was elected for the first time in Brentwood North following the retirement of Reg Straw. It was with great sadness that we lost Karen Chilvers in Brentwood West by just ten votes. Karen had served her residents with great passion and commitment for the last four years but sadly it wasn't enough in what was always going to be a very hard fought contest. I know many Brentwood West residents and the members of the Lib Dem group will miss Karen greatly but we all wish her well with whatever she decides to do next.

Highways Department transfer to Harlow is "a disaster"

In an extremely embarrasing letter to councillors, Tory Leader of the Council Cllr Louise McKinlay has been forced to admit that transferring Brentwood's highways function to Harlow has not worked. The letter admits a number of key failings, including:

Cllr David Kendall: Why I am voting YES to AV on 5th May

Do you want to see our Town Hall demolished?

Many residents have been shocked to hear of the decision made by the Tory administration running Brentwood Council to either demolish ALL the Town Hall of 87% of it. The building is the borough's most valuable asset and has been a major landmark in the town since it was opened by HM The Queen in 1953.

No coalition in Brentwood

Whilst there may be a coalition government at Westminster, there certainly isn't one in Brentwood where the Liberal Democrats provide the only serious opposition to the Tories.

National Nature Parks

The Liberal Democrats have laid out a bold and ambitious plan to restore the UK’s natural environment and ensure that everyone can access a clean, healthy, and thriving green space.

Standing up for consumers

For many people, Buy Now Pay Later is a useful and convenient solution, offering them flexibility with their purchases. But consumers need stronger protections.
