Reacting to the news that David Parsons, Leader of Leicestershire County Council has failed in his bid to become Chairman of the Local Government Association, Liberal Democrat leader Simon Galton has offered his condolences but stressed that it is now time to get back to dealing with local issues and priorities here in Leicestershire.
Leicestershire Liberal Democrats are proposing that the benefits of a projected surplus on the Council's Budget for 2010/11 should be used to protect vital community services. A report to the Councils Cabinet on the 14th June projects a budget surplus of £5.89m.
Liberal Democrats have responded to the announced Big Society Grant Fund as being "better than nothing but far short of what is needed".
