The library in Guildford has been hard hit during the pandemic, and is facing a continual threat of cuts from the Tory run County Council. However, it's good to see that there is a strong supply of fiction to stock our libraries shelves with, the most recent addition being a Tory leaflet that has been distributed across Guildford.
After over two hours of question, comments and debate Derbyshire Dales District Councillors voted in favour of the motion "That Council agree to offer a financial contribution of up to 50% for the increase in hourly rates of pay for (Serco) HGV drivers, until 31 March 2022".
Britain must lead the way by acting now to protect our natural environment, clean up our air and cut our carbon emissions.
