Join Us for Kent Pride in Margate

Over the past few months Pride events have been happening across the whole of the UK with some of the largest turnouts yet, with 1000s of spectators and even bigger parades than before. The Liberal Democrats have taken part in most of them - from Glasgow, Cardiff and London, to Leeds, Brighton and many more.

Council Tax Rebate Scam

Kent County Council Trading Standards is aware of cold callers falsely claiming to offer a Council Tax rebate. Letters are also being sent to consumers demanding payment. Please be aware that these companies are not associated with any District Council or Kent County Council and as a result your Council Tax rebate will NOT be reduced.

Could Jeremy Corbyn be right?

I never thought I might be saying this about a left-wing politician, but is it possible that the current frontrunner in the Labour leadership election might actually be right? At least, in part.

What price austerity now?

I hate to make a party political point (he lied) but recent news articles tell us that not only has GDP been above pre-crisis levels since 2013, but GDP per capita has also just returned to those levels too, which is more important. The point is that the austerity-hating Scottish National Party managed to oust Danny Alexander, in May, even though he had been one of the leading architects of the strategy which put the entire country back on track.
