Statement from Lib Dem Group on David Parsons
Throughout this long and drawn out saga caused by Mr Parsons' refusal to act with integrity and dignity we have maintained the view that Mr Parsons should resign.

Despite continual pleas to consider the use of earmarked Reserves, a report to the next meeting of the County Council's Cabinet published by the Director of Resources shows that the Conservative Administration has now shamefully siphoned over £110m into the reserves whilst approving cuts to services and savings of £26.9m.
In light of Mr Sprason's admission that he had misled the County Council over his attendance at the Cecil Club dinner with Mr Parsons, we are happy to remove our story 'Scandal - Now Sprason's in the frame' from the Leicestershire Lib Dem website.
The contaminated blood scandal is one of the gravest injustices in NHS history. We must honour victims with recognition, dignity, and compensation – and ensure no one ever suffers from such injustice again.
Years of Conservative cuts have hollowed out the legal aid system, leaving millions without access to timely legal advice. Our new policy will legal aid a guaranteed right, ensure no one is left without help.
Millions of people are still trapped in England’s broken leasehold system. Our plan will end the leasehold rip-off, strengthen building safety, and give residents the control, fairness, and dignity they deserve in their own homes.
