First the good news. Wokingham Borough Council will receive £0.67 million more from government towards supporting its revenue budget for 2024/5.
The neuroscientist Abhiji Naskar warned that criticism is often the weapon of the shallow, but that scrutiny is the tool of the wise. Olympic athlete Paula Radcliffe has noted how scrutiny and success go together.
Wokingham Borough has one of the highest rates of car ownership in the country and, as we all see, high levels of traffic.
Care-experienced people can face significant barriers throughout their lives and therefore Wokingham Borough Council agrees to treat experience of care as a protected characteristic.
An Ecological Emergency has been declared by Wokingham Borough Council. As well as actions taken to address the climate emergency, the council will adopt policies to protect biodiversity and reduce the rate of species loss.
Only the Liberal Democrats will stand up to Trump, invest in the UK’s security, support Ukraine, hold back Russia, deepen our ties with European and commonwealth partners, and stand up for liberal, British values.
As liberals, we believe that true equality is achieved when individuals are not only free from prejudice and discrimination, but also free to fulfil their potential. So fighting for LGBTQ+ rights is not a choice Liberals make.
The Liberal Democrats' bold plan to restore UK leadership in science and innovation will drive investment, boost global collaboration, and ensure technology benefits everyone, not just the privileged few.
