Our Priorities for the Farnhams & Stoke Poges
These elections present a clear choice: moving forwards with the Liberal Democrats or 4 more years of failure from the Conservatives.
✅ Delivering Value for Money
With people worrying about the cost of living the Conservatives have put up taxes, yet the roads are still full of holes.
The Liberal Democrats would cut waste and get better value from your money.
✅ Better Health and Social Care
Many local residents still struggle to get NHS appointments when they need them.
Liberal Democrats would ensure investment in health and social care goes hand in hand with any new development.
✅ Standing up for our Green Spaces
The Conservative council’s failure to deliver a local plan has left our countryside open to a developer free-for-all.
Liberal Democrats would prioritise a new local plan ensuring communities have a say in protecting our green spaces.
