Cambridge Liberal Democrats

Lib Dem Plans for a Better Cambridgeshire

Cambridgeshire Liberal Democrats have launched their manifesto for the 2005 County Council Elections, to be held on the same day as the General Election - Thursday May 5th.

A Liberal Democrat-run Cambridgeshire will …

• Increase funding for education, towards the national average
• Increase the number of police on our streets as fast as the budget increases
• Invest in preventative social services rather than waiting for crises
• Increase funding to the Youth Service by £ 1 million
• Make the bus network more reliable, efficient and competitive
• Provide good value for taxpayers' money
• Keep existing libraries open, extend opening hours and improve book stock
• Give the public the right to ask questions at Council meetings
• Promote schemes to support walking and cycling
• Oppose the Guided Bus project
• Provide more grants for voluntary organisations

The full manifesto is available in the "Download area" of this site (see menu to the left).
