Lib Dems have persuaded the Tory controlled County Council to undertake a massive u-turn and defer a flagship budget cut to Home to School Transport. Under the proposals students faced massive changes to transport entitlements and some faced fees of over £400 per year. If entitlement changes were agreed this would have restricted transport to nearest available school even if that school was over the County boundary.
This is what we have submitted to the Cabinet for today's (8th May) meeting on the issue of Chnages to Home to School Transport.
Following the UK's hottest summer on record, escalating heatwaves and severe droughts have triggered catastrophic blazes across the country, damaging delicate ecosystems and destroying homes.
The Liberal Democrats will continue to stand in solidarity with trans and non-binary communities, defending equal rights, personal dignity and safety for all.
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.
