May’s election proved that only the Lib Dems can beat Reform in Newcastle ...
- Farage says he wants to do politics differently but instead his councillors are resigning and causing chaos
- Farage himself is under investigation over a £5million gift from a billionare donor. End Reform’s broken promises and chaos
- Reform is costing taxpayers thousands in this unnecessary by-election
Reform’s leader in Newcastle said they wanted a stable council and no chaos for the next 12 months. Chaos is what they’ve caused!
This by-election is our chance to send a message that enough is enough. A win for the Lib Dems here will demand better. A Lib Dem councillor will:
- Stand up for Throckley, Walbottle and Newburn every single day.
- Back our Administration’s plans for record investment in frontline services.
