Many congratulations to our new District Councillor Anne Blake-Coggins, who won the Hailsham South by-election on February 10th with almost 60% of the vote, a gain from the Conservatives. This means that the Lib Dems are now the official opposition on Wealden District Council, with a total of six councillors (up from zero in 2018!).
Following yesterday's shocking and senseless fatal stabbing of Southend West's longserving Conservative MP Sir David Amess, we wish to echo the sentiments in the statement released by Liberal Democrats leader Sir Ed Davey. We also send our deepest sympathy to Sir David's family, friends and colleagues.
Autumn Virtual Conference 2021 was a smorgasbord of policy-making, debate, fringe sessions, training and incredible speeches. So you'd be forgiven for missing something or other. Catch up on all the weekend's major events with our Autumn Conference 2021 Recapped.
