Charles Shaw shows racism the red card at the National Education Union Conference in Bournemouth - April 2024.

Lincolnshire Liberals stand firm with the community and with trades unionists in working for all communities in Lincolnshire.

Lincolnshire Liberals oppose the racist and disastrous wars in Ukraine and Gaza and call for a complete ceasefire,   We also call for no arming of the agressors in these conflicts and recognise the right of Ukraine and Palestine to self-determination.  WE realise that these conflicts are different but in both cases there is a need for a complete ceasefire and a return to the borders of before the conflicts. 

Working Together for our Community and wider!

Did you know that you can still be an Independent Councillor and a member of the Lincolnshire Liberals Councillor Network - We need not remind you that we are Lincolnshire and East Midlands Liberals not the Lib Dems, Labour or Conservatives.

If you would like details please contact us on support@lincolnshireliberals.org.uk including your telephone and other contact details and we will be in touch. 

Lincolnshire Liberal Party recognises and pays tribute to the lifetime of service given to our Country and The Commonwealth by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the unstinting dedication to the commitment she made at the age of 21.  We send our condolences to the Royal Family and our message of support to His Majesty King Charles III and the Queen Consort and Families at this time.  God Save the King.

The Liberal Party in Lincolnshire exists to build a liberal society in which every citizen shall possess liberty, property and security and none shall be enslaved by poverty, ignorance or conformity. Its chief care is for the rights and opportunities of the individual and in all spheres it sets freedom first.

Within Lincolnshire we support local Town and Parish Councillors and County and District Councils. We believe in the community need for the City of Lincoln to be made a unitary authority and for the remaining areas to be split into Lindsey Kestevan and Holland with strengthened districts and town councils this makes for a more viable arrangement and also resonates more with the community.  We also would like to see far more support for public transport and less dependence on road traffic which creates  levels of dependency despite its convenience and should not be the sole method of transport.   Our Coastal Communities particularly need good infrastructure and there needs to be a rail link across the humber connecting Barton on Humber with Hull and a reconnection of Louth to the rail network.  If we don't want our country landscape to be populated by bags, cans and plastic bottles we need to take action now to set the environmental bar to our personal action and have that reflected in our policies for schools, youth clubs, colleges and universities so that students realise that individual action means taking personal responsibility for litter and what we consume.

LINCOLNSHIRE LIBERAL MEETING

 

The next meeting of Lincolnshire Liberals will be in central Lincoln in April 2024  subject to the Coronavirus regulations and will be held on a skype type platform if necessary.  Lincolnshire will be working towards the local elections and the Liberal Assembly in the Autumn.  We will also be discussing General Election options.

Cllr Charles Shaw explains why the Liberal Democrats are losing members grounded in real service to their local communities. These people are Councillors and activists who have seen the need to go back to supporting their community. These are Local Lincs Liberals. 

Lincolnshire Liberals are proud to supply video content from across the political spectrum which supports our views and/or entertains website viewers.  There are great people in most political parties and all are entitle to a view but naturally we think that Local Lincolnshire Liberals are the best having an independent view and that centralist collectivist parties are not the answer if we are to ensure local equality and fairness.

 

Lincolnshire Liberals respect the right to self determination and support the implementation of the result of the 2016 referendum, however, unlike the Liberal Democrats encourage open debate amongst all members on the EU and other political issues and have leave and remain members. This applies to other areas such as the Environment, Transport, Education and on how we can build a fair society recognising that Freedom and Security are not always the same.

To contact us please email lincolnshireliberalsoutlook.com or telephone 01522 524305 or join via the membership option on www.liberal.org.uk you can also join as a purely local member and you will be communicated with personally not bombarded with centrally processed directives and emails as with the lib dems which we are not although we will work with all other parties to achieve our commonly shared aims.  You can also write to us at Lincolnshire Liberals

No to Fracking in the UK

Fracking and Subterranean earth tremors 

The Liberal Party notes the continued series of

 earth tremors in the vicinity of 

drilling site at Preston New Road in Lancashire

The party reiterates its support for the termination of fracking in the Uk. The party

believes that government support 

would be better directed to local 
renewable energy schemes and the long-term development of storage technology.

Hong Kong

 

the Liberal party records that The transfer of sovereignty over Hong Kong,[1][2][3] commonly known as the handover of Hong Kong  occurred at midnight on 1 July 1997, when the United Kingdom ended administration for the colony of Hong Kong and passed control of the territory to China. Hong Kong became a special administrative region and continues to maintain governing and economic systems separate from those of mainland China.
 
We deplore increasing attempts by the People's Republic of China to undermine the rights and liberties assured in that transfer agreement
 
We deplore the build up of troops along the Hong Kong border designed to intimidate the population of Hong Kong.
 
Therefore with immediate effect the UK government should declare all UK citizens at the time of transfer  1st July 1997 should be given automatic right to live in the UK, unless they had been subject to serious criminal convictions

Skellingthorpe Surgery

The Liberal Party noted with dismay the decision to close the Skellingthorpe GP Surgery and the complicity of the NHS commissioning in this process. This reduction in services based on a complete misunderstanding and lack of care and interest in small town and village communities is happening too often across Lincolnshire.
