Liberal Democrats holding Camden Council to account
Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg (left) joined Camden's Keith Moffitt for the launch of our 2010 campaign manifesto.
|
With 13 councillors, Liberal Democrats are the main opposition party on Camden Council and will hold the new Labour administration to account on behalf of local residents. We'll aim to defend the advances made in the four years we led the Council from 2006 to 2010, and to promote the pledges set out in our manifesto for the May 2010 elections to make Camden fair, green and safe:
-
A freeze on council tax and a commitment to keep it down in future.
-
At least one new secondary school and a new primary school
-
Investment in more jobs, more cycling and less carbon.
-
1,000 new homes and 7,000 kitchens and bathrooms for tenants.
-
More police on your streets.
-
A council that is on your side, not on your back.
