After celebrating their best ever general Election Results, The Party is the third biggest in parliament. Some of its members are here as mps for the first time. The mood is so upbeat, it is so buoyant but we are really determined to get stuff done. The reason we fight in elections and we win elections is so we can achieve things for our community so i am excited to be talking about our plan fixing Social Care and the health service, and how we really represent our community to be that strong, determined opposition to the government and represent our community is the best possible way we can. The Liberal Democrats achieved record Election Results by pitching themselves in opposition to the conservatives. Raising the question of what to do now that labour are in power. The party says it wants to offer a constructive opposition, challenging ministers on policies they dont like, such as the recent cut in the Winter Fuel Allowance. And they want to use this platform to put forward their ow

With his Co Leader but he will be delivering a speech on his own because she has covid symptoms. The Green Party looking to position themselves as a challenge the Labour Government from the left so i think we can expect them to say that labour should be bolder and braver in their words more ambitious. And criticise what they say is labour s doom and gloom. We had from Keir Starmer a few weeks ago saying things will get worse before they get better. The argument from the Green Party in manchester is that this is not necessarily the case and are not calling for a Wealth Tax on the very wealthiest. They are saying that by those measures, more investment could be made immediately in public services. I think we can also expect criticism of the Winter Fuel Allowance cut and also to the two child benefit cap. Those are the kind of organs are expecting to hear the next few minutes as the conference for the Green Party gets under way. What difference does it make having four mps, what differen

If thats real life, just carry on. Its getting us through this lockdown, i tell you. Although items on the agenda may include floral displays and litter picking, it seems meetings of Handforth Parish Council arent for the faint hearted. And apparently, theres a long history here of factionalism, infighting, and complaints about councillors. Councillor burkhill, weve been through this. Jackie weaver isnt on the council. Some councillors asked her to be there to provide supervisory support, but others didnt accept her role. What are you talking about . You dont know whati youre talking about at that meeting, im not absolutely sure who was in charge. I was very focused and i was there to support the three councillors that wanted to get on with the ordinary, often dull, business of a parish council. If this goes viral, its going to start a war of words. Some of the councillors maintain that the meeting itself was illegal, others that it was held fairly. Either way, they could sell tickets
