Save our green belt
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.
Find our more about the local plan on our frequently asked questions page.

Good news for Lib Dems in Euro results too
The Liberal Democrats in Chelmsford have seen their vote in the European Parliament election rise by 1735 since the last such election in 2004, showing a swing from Conservative AND Labour AND UKIP to the Lib Dems. These votes helped Andrew Duff to be re-elected as Lib Dem MEP for the area. Coming on top of excellent local election results, this all points to a close race to be the MP for Chelmsford - between Lib Dem Stephen Robinson and the Conservatives.
