The Government has doubled the housebuilding target for Stockport, weakened the protections on a third of our precious green belt, and is forcing the Council through Ministerial Directives and threats to adopt a Local Plan which will let developers target green belt first.
We oppose this government’s ‘developers charter’ and need your voice. Do you agree with us that the green spaces that make our area special need to be preserved, and new housing should first be built on brownfield sites, after the infrastructure is provided with schools, improved transport, and GP places guaranteed? Help us send a message to Government and make Labour listen to local people.

Scottish Liberal Democrat research recently found that 96% of Scottish adults who are worried about the cost of heating have changed how they heat their homes this winter, to help keep bills lower.
With the Labour government forcing thousands of people to choose between heating and eating with the removal of the Winter Fuel Allowance, Portsmouth's Lib Dem-led council doubles down on efforts to support the most vulnerable people in our community.
When we think back to last year, we had a severe issue with the non-delivery of savings for last year’s budget which meant we had an in-year deficit of £11m, which took a lot of time and effort to close.
Cllr. Phil Redshaw (LibDem, Cottingham North) has welcomed the decision by the East Riding of Yorkshire Council to allocate an additional £100k to combat fly-tipping at last week’s Budget meeting.
Commenting on the press conference between Starmer and Trump, Liberal Democrat Deputy Leader Daisy Cooper MP said:
Unpalatable choices have been forced on all councils as they struggle with increased demand for services, especially in adults and children’s social care, and rising costs in the delivery of those services.
