Again, action by Liberal Democrat councillors has shamed Tory-controlled Essex County Council in to repairing something in Brentwood.
Again, action by Liberal Democrat councillors has shamed Tory-controlled Essex County Council in to repairing something in Brentwood.
Residents in Brentwood are angry to find that they have been buying Lord Hanningfield's tipples over the last few years after news emerged that his £4,600 Bar Bill in the House of Lords was funded by the Essex taxpayer.
Mores Lane pothole ...
Cllr Graeme Clark has reacted angrily to Essex County Council's apathy over the state of the pavements in Priests Lane - currently home to 32 separate potholes.
Cllr David Kendall is asking local residents and bus users to back him in trying to save the 73a and 73b bus services covering Woodman Road and Clements Park in Warley. First Buses recently announced that they will no longer be running the sections of the route via Clements Park and Woodman Road that operate between 0900 and 1400 on weekdays. These changes are set to come into effect from the 5th May. David contacted the Passenger Transport Dept at Essex County Council several weeks ago and asked for an alternative operator to be found as these routes provide a vital lifeline for many residents particularly the elderly. He suggested that Brentwood Community Transport should be contacted to see if they could assist but he is still waiting to hear if that has been done. If no bus operator can be found to cover these areas it will be a big blow to many bus users in Warley. It will also be very frustrating because when the Clements Park estate was built alot of money was spent on installing raised kerb bus stops
For over three years, the Liberal Democrats have been calling for all Brentwood councillors to be criminal record bureau checked for the safety of vulnerable residents and children that they deal with but have constantly been pushed back on this by the Tory administration.
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.
