The Liberal Democrats in Rushcliffe are a growing local party, working on behalf of all the residents of Rushcliffe.

Jayne and Tim

Rushcliffe parliamentary candidate - Jayne Phoenix

We currently have two elected Liberal Democrat members on the Conservative-controlled Rushcliffe Borough Council.

We keep in touch with local residents all year round through regular FOCUS leaflets and email updates, and we contest almost every seat in local and parliamentary elections. Our prospective parliamentary candidate for the election on June 8th is Jane Phoenix.

The Liberal Democrats are proud to be the only party commited to fighting the damaging effects of a hard Brexit, both locally and nationally.

If we can help you in any way, please get in touch.

The Liberal Democrats exist to build and safeguard a fair, free and open society, in which we seek to balance the fundamental values of liberty, equality and community, and in which no-one shall be enslaved by poverty, ignorance or conformity.

  • Discharge and flies
    Melton Rd shops afflicted by foul smell and flies from animal waste
    Article: Jul 18, 2017

    Tuesday morning shop owners and shoppers on Melton Road West Bridgford had once again to step carefully to avoid the flies but could not avoid the rancid smell.

    Drips from an animal waste collection vehicle leave a putrid pool which water does not dissipate. The owner changes where it is parked, distributing the smell and flies including on nearby roads. Shop owners and residents are understandably upset.

    At 10.30 am Monday 17th July the Notts County Council Conservative leader of
    the Children's Committee proposed a reduction in their commitment to
    unaccompanied migrant children. Its effect withdraws Notts from helping
    take a share of refugee children to save money. This is a politically driven
    report.

  • New Liberal Democrat Deputy Leader to be elected
    Article: Jun 14, 2017
    By Mark Pack in http://www.markpack.org.uk

    Or to be more precise, a new Deputy Leader of the Liberal Democrat Parliamentary Party in the House of Commons is to be elected.

    It is up to the party's MPs to decide whether or not to elect a Deputy Leader, and Tim Farron has announced that:

    "In the last parliament, we didn't have any women in our parliamentary party and we didn't feel it was right to elect a deputy in those circumstances. But I wanted to revive the role as it gives the party another powerful voice and has helped give prominence to many of our notable MPs, including Ming Campbell, Simon Hughes and Vince Cable.
