Let us know your views on local issues
Following the General Election on Thursday 4th July 2024, the Liberal Democrats now have a record-breaking number of MPs in Parliament. We are the third largest Party, determined not demoralised like others.
In holding the Labour Government to account, they will be guided by the Liberal Democrats election campaign for a Fair Deal for the UK. Locally the Liberal Democrat candidates who campaigned to represent the five constituencies across Newcastle upon Tyne will remain in post as Parliamentary spokespeople.
You can also sign up to help our continuing campaign for a Fair Deal for Newcastle as well as the rest of the country - including pressing Labour to fulfill their election promises.
The Liberal Democrats are committed to rebuilding the trust and compassion that the UK was once known for. We believe that our country has a responsibility to support those in need, no matter where they are in the world.
For too long, years of neglect and mismanagement by the previous Conservative Government have pushed our prison system into a deep crisis.
The Liberal Democrats have long championed proportional representation, advocating for a voting system where every vote truly counts. We believe that reforming our electoral system is crucial for a fairer democracy and better governance.
