Where's the bus?

Bus service cuts start

We warned last May that the Conservatives would start cutting bus services, once the county council elections on 4th June were safely out of the way. In October we learnt that the Pegasus school bus scheme will end next July, causing additional environmental problems and traffic chaos as well as giving problems to thousands of parents faced with getting their children to school. Now Surrey County Council is consulting on a 'Bus Review' aimed at cutting costs of other bus services by at least 20%.

Horton Water Tower

Horton Water Tower

The papers for the Planning Committee meeting on 10 December include a recommendation to refuse the Planning Application for Horton Water Tower. The reasons given are the effect on adjacent dwellings and the effect on the appearance of the existing tower. The actual decision to refuse or to permit will be taken in public on Thursday by the councillors on the Planning Committee.

Christmas Lights

Christmas Lights have now gone up in Epsom's High Street. They are generally similar to those displayed last year. However the familiarity of the scene masks the efforts that have gone on so that shoppers in Epsom can enjoy the spectacle.

Just What Is the Alternative Vote System?

Next May there is a nationwide Referendum on changing the way we vote. Most people have little idea of how this voting system differs from the one we use at present which is called First-Past-The-Post.

Sir Cyril Smith alongside Gracie Fields

Sir Cyril Remembered

Tributes have been paid to Sir Cyril Smith, former Lib Dem MP for Rochdale, who died on Friday. Party Leader Nick Clegg said "Cyril Smith was a larger-than-life character and one of the most recognisable and likeable politicians of his day. He was a true Liberal, dedicated to his constituency, always showing great passion and determination. Cyril was a colourful politician who kept the flame of Liberalism alive when the party was much smaller than it is today."

Surrey Liberal Democrats Welcome the Pupil Premium

The Coalition Government has announced a Pupil Premium to target extra money at schools taking disadvantaged pupils. The proposed Pupil Premium would provide additional per pupil funding on top of the existing funding provided to schools. Schools will be free to spend the additional funding as they choose to raise the achievement of disadvantage pupils. This was a key manifesto commitment and one that Nick Clegg made clear was one of his absolute priorities.
