On Wedneday, at an historic annual council meeting the Conservative party lost control of the borough council after ten years to the Brentwood Accord: the former opposition made up of three parties and the independent councillor.
Cllr Vicky Davies, Lib Dem, Pilgrims Hatch, was tonight elected as Mayor of Brentwood for 2014-15 in the presence of her daughters and granddaughter. Madam Mayor is pictured with her husband, Mr Alan Davies, himself a former Mayor of Brentwood.
The Brentwood Accord includes all the former opposition councillors ...
This historic document was signed on Saturday 24th May at Brentwood Town Hall, giving the Liberal Democrats, Brentwood First, Labour and the Independent member the opportunity to form a new administration after ending the 2014 borough elections with more councillors than the Conservatives. The agreed principles are outlined below:
Last night saw the end of Tory rule at Brentwood Council as they were pushed into the minority by the opposition parties, led by Cllr Barry Aspinell and the Liberal Democrat team.
The Liberal Democrats are taking a stand to hold tech companies accountable, equip the police with the right powers, and build a digital world where women and girls can live safely and without fear.
Supporting people to age well and maintain their independence is better for them and common-sense for the NHS. The Liberal Democrats are taking a stand to fix social care, protect our NHS, and ensure everyone can age well in their own home and community.
Liberal Democrat members have renewed our commitment to fix the front door of the NHS, restore patient choice, end dental deserts, and ensure preventative care is accessible before health problems turn into emergencies.
