We are busy putting plans in place to implement our manifesto for Teignbridge - you can download our Manifesto here building a modern community powered council
In the last four years Liberal Democrats have made a big difference at Teignbridge including; decarbonising council buildings and our leisure centres - saving significantly on energy bills, building new council houses - well insulated and cheap to heat, improving our parks and open spaces, planting trees and wilflower beds, and a new draft local plan that both protects Teignbridge from speculative developers and introduces new climate change measures that developers will have to follow.
But there is much more to do.
Thank you for support the Lib Dems on May 4th. Now we can continue improving the council, tackling climate change and build more new modern warm and affordable council homes.
Liberal Democrats see the best in things. We celebrate diversity - and nonconformity and if something isn't working we try to fix it or we fight for reform. We are committed to representing local people and making sure your voices are heard.

Closing cottage hospitals, like Teignmouth, is short sighted, and will be viewed in the same way as selling school playing fields...

It's time for change. We cannot sit idly by as our local services crumble. Liberal Democrats will always stand up for a fair deal for communities.
Let's focus on what truly works: tackling the backlog, creating safe routes, and upholding our commitment to human rights. As Liberal Democrats, we will continue to fight for a fairer and more compassionate asylum system.
Navalny cast a light on the corruption of Putin and his cronies. His tragic death, at the hands of Putin, cannot and will not stifle the democratic ideals that he fought for. Together, let us be a voice that speaks for those who have been silenced.
