Surrey’s local councils are being reorganised into Unitary Authorities

Here’s what you need to know ahead of this May’s local elections 👇

#LocalElections #EastSurrey #VoteLibDem

The voters of East Surrey also hunger for change

A fresh start is needed in order to deal with the ruinous roads, the litigious attitude of the current administration towards the parents of children with SEND & to protect our cherished green spaces

#VoteLibDem #LocalElections2026

With just 10 weeks until polling day Sir Ed stressed the need for a positive vision for the area's future after decades of Conservative mismanagement & neglect

LibDems will bring much needed change. You can help by voting LibDem on 7th May
#VoteLibDem

Yesterday local @libdems.org.uk MPs & party leader
@eddavey.libdems.org.uk helped launch our East Surrey campaign in Epsom.

Sir Ed told supporters that winning both new Surrey councils, were vital steps in thwarting Reform UK's plan to win the next general election.

fyi Surrey is being moved into two unitaries

Photo of group of five students walking through a sunny university campus. Overlayed across the top of the image is the text; "Lib Dems announce plan to urgently cut student loan repayments amid cost of living crisis." Liberal Democrat logo in left bottom corner.

The student finance system isn't working.

Graduates are paying more, for longer, on terms that keep changing. That’s not fair and we have the plan to fix it.

Parents of SEND children are constantly fighting for the right support, all while private equity firms cash in and siphon taxpayers’ money offshore.

The Lib Dems will cap profits at 8% and treat SEND as critical national infrastructure.

SEND needs a radical shake-up.

We must cap private profits to end the race to the bottom, protect existing support, introduce universal screening for every child, and boost mainstream and specialist capacity so the system truly works for children and families.

At last night’s council meeting it was revealed there’ll be more delays to reopening the Harlequin Theatre in #Redhill as contracts have still not been signed to start the removal of the RAAC or for future operations

The lack of any timescales & these delays are unacceptable

"This is the first step on the mission to get our economy growing again."

@LibDemDaisy.bsky.social

This is 100% what’s needed

The country desperately needs growth & the current Treasury is a massive brake on making that happen

Let’s get Britain growing again!

Ground rents to be capped at £250 a year for leaseholders The reforms for England and Wales also include proposals to ban the sale of new leasehold flats.

Capping ground rents at £250 doesn't go far enough the @libdems.org.uk believe that ground rents should be abolished on all existing leases

The Liberal Democrats are committed to abolishing leasehold entirely

Our candidates & teams have been out talking to people & listening to their concerns across East Surrey including in Reigate, Redhill & Horley

For a fresh start for East Surrey Vote LibDem in May
#Reigate #Redhill #Horley #Merstham #Banstead

This May sees elections to the new East Surrey unitary authority Council which will eventually replace both Surrey County Council & the Borough & District Councils including Reigate & Banstead

It’s a chance for a fresh start for East Surrey from the mismanagement of the Tories

Trump prompts outrage with claim Nato troops avoided frontline in Afghanistan UK MPs and veterans condemn US president’s comments and highlight his avoidance of military service in Vietnam

President Trump is ignorant & a disgrace & should apologise.

It's clear he knows nothing about military service & the bravery & sacrifice of our military personnel

Keir Starmer warned of Labour rebellion if leasehold reforms watered down Former minister Justin Madders tells the BBC Labour must stick to its pledge to cap ground rents.

At the risk of repetition, the Government need to deliver on Leasehold Reform - as per their manifesto

For the record it should be abolished. Scotland has managed it, the rest of the UK should follow suit.

The Government's plans for water companies don't go far enough

We must completely overhaul how water companies are run

We must completely overhaul how water companies are run.

We need a new ownership system where the money made through the water industry is reinvested into protecting our lakes, rivers, and seas from pollution.

Labour's plans announced today fail to do that.

Back the Campaign: New Age Ratings For Social Media The Liberal Democrats are calling for a new system of age ratings for social media platforms, using a framework parents already understand and trust.

Back our campaign: libdems.org.uk/ageratings

Just as films are rated according to their content, online platforms should be rated according to the risks they pose.

Our message to social media giants is clear: if your platform spreads harmful content or relies on addictive and algorithms, you should not be allowed anywhere near our children.

🚨Government water reforms do not go far enough.🚨

The Water White Paper finally admits the scale of the freshwater emergency - but it still falls short of the urgent, radical action our rivers desperately need...
