Sevenoaks Local Plan: Liberal Democrats Call for New Approach Following Consultation Sevenoaks Liberal Democrats have written to Council leaders demanding a new consensus-based approach to the Local Plan after residents rejected every major development proposal.

Sevenoaks residents have rejected every major development proposal in the Local Plan consultation.
We're calling on the Council to change course โ€” and work together to build a plan our communities can actually support. #SevenoaksLocalPlan #LibDems

The local Liberal Democrat opposition team consistently hold the Conservatives to account on Sevenoaks District Council and stand up to Reform UK at Kent County Council. Ashley will join them to fight for Hextable on the issues that matter to you:

Reformโ€™s Trump-inspired plans for an ICE-style force will only bring chaos and disorder to Britainโ€™s streets, not the order and control our immigration system needs.

High court rules ban on Palestine Action is unlawful โ€“ live Protest groupโ€™s co-founder wins legal challenge against decision to proscribe it under anti-terrorism laws

I'm pleased to see the High Court overturn the absurd proscription of Palestine Action.

Labour abused the parliamentary system to get them proscribed, but it was clear this was a blatant misuse of terror legislation.

Just think how much police time was wasted with this nonsense.
