New Year Message
Government must deliver the change people are yearning for
This followed on from a local elections in which the Liberal Democrats came second here in the North West of England winning 50 seats to the Conservatives 43 seats. The Liberal Democrats also did well accross Greater Manchester, again coming second by winning 21 seats to the Conservatives' 17 seats.
Here in Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale the Liberal Democrats are providing real opposition to a Labour Council that is trying to silence the voices of local residents.
In Westminster it is the Liberal Democrats challenging the austerity budget of the Labour Chancellor, and fighting for the changes needed in this country to rebuild our economy following nine years of botched Brexit deals.
