"I hate to say it, but only one party leader seems to have grasped that, if you construct a system where unskilled people are worse off by taking a job than by staying on welfare, they remain trapped in poverty - and that is Nick Clegg. "
Lord Norman Tebbit
Daily Telegraph online - 13 Jan
"It's unbelievable that the Tories are still planning to cut taxes for a handful of millionaires when the majority of people across the country are feeling the squeeze. We need fair tax cuts that put money back in the pockets of ordinary people. The Tory sums simply do not stack up. It is irresponsible and highly misleading for George Osborne to continue to pretend that they do. "
Vince Cable MP
Responding to Conservative Spending Plans - 4 Jan

We're about Freedom, Fairness, Trust and a Greener Britain.
Liberalism means a freer Britain, one in which people and communities are able to exercise
real political power on their own behalf. It means a fairer Britain, where people are not
excluded by a lack of income or wealth or opportunity. And it means a greener Britain, where
the environment is valued and protected. It means a country built on trust in its citizens.
Our intention is that this website will be a useful resource for local people to find out more about the local Liberal Democrats and the campaigns we are running.
However, we would like it to be more than that - we would like to hear from you. Online you can:

She joins Glenis Ansell and Chris Dobbie representing the ward for the Liberal Democrats. Commenting on her win, would-be Lib Dem MP Mike Evemy said 'It's a great boost for the Lib Dems in Calne just months before the General Election.'
