Dear friends, here is our latest update covering what we hope are interesting developments since our last update on 12 September.
91,177 patients in Surrey (number excludes patients living in those parts of Surrey Heath borough and Farnham not covered by Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care Board), waited more than two weeks for a GP appointment in September, new research by the Liberal Democrats has revealed.
Liberal Democrat Richard Morris won a stunning victory last week in the Tillingbourne by-election in rural blue wall Surrey, taking a seat off the Conservatives on Guildford Borough Council.
The Tory Leader of Surrey County Council this week used his statement at the head of the full council meeting on 11 October to admit that "we have let some people down." His comments referred to the chaos in the Home to School transport service that organises travel for mainstream and special needs pupils, which had prompted a series of questions from Members to find out what had gone wrong.
Liberal Democrats are committed to building town centres that inspire pride for generations to come. It is time to stop ignoring the decline of our high streets and breathe new life into them as vibrant hubs for the future.
The right to a trial by jury has been a cornerstone of our democracy for over 800 years. Liberal Democrat members have passed a new plan to tackle court backlogs without scrapping juries.
Learning to drive is a vital life skill. Liberal Democrat members passed a new plan to clear the backlogs, end the rip-offs, and get the next generation moving.
