Ex Labour Councillors finally stand down.

Kemptown and Queen's Park due to have elections to choose new councillors to represent their wards.

The voters in Kemptown and Queen's Park are to have another chance to elect a councillor to represent them as the two disgraced ex-Labour Councillors announce their resignation. Voters in those two wards have suffered from little say in their affairs as the two former Labour councillors chose not to attend council or ward meetings. The other existing Labour councillor for Kemptown is noticably missing in action leaving it up to Robert Brown, the Liberal Democrat candidate in the May 2023 elections, as the only voice out there fighting for their interests. Robert has held surgeries with voters and chased up the council on their behalf with his efforts being publicised through the local press. Robert has said that he intends to stand again for selection as the Liberal Democrat representative for Kemptown in the forthcoming by-election. The date of the by-election is still to be announced.

If you want to help Robert and the Kemptown Focus Team in their campaigns to help the residents of Kemptown or put a poster in your window then email kemptown@liberalbrighton.org and Robert or one of his team will contact you.

To donate to help their campaigns efforts click here. Make sure to tell us that the donation is for Kemptown's campaigns.

Setting the record straight

With the attacks by the Tories on Ed Davey we thought you might like to know what really happened and not what the Tories imagined happened.

Liberal Democrats sweep to Victory in Somerton & Frome with an 11,008 majority.

The voters completely rejected Tory policies and government by electing Sarah Dyke as their new MP. Sarah polled 21,187 votes against the Tories 10,179, their worst result in the history of the seat. In the General Election in 2019 Tories polled 36,230 votes so this represents a loss of 26,051 votes for them. A disastrous result and a measure of just how much disatisfaction there is with the current Tory Party and its disastrous government. For Sarah though, it represents a huge personal triumph as she becomes the 15th MP sitting for the Lib Dems in this parliament. Huge congratulations to Sarah, our newest MP.
