Swindon Liberal Democrats

We have five key goals for #Swindon: 1. Recover Swindon's #Enterprising Spirit. 2. Commit Swindon to a #Green Future. 3. Build a society to be proud of. 4. Help our #young people flourish. 5. Fix our broken #transport and roads. If you agree with us #VoteLibDem on Thursday!🟧🗳️

The Wiltshire Police and Crime Commissioner by-election has been caused because the “successful” Conservative candidate was barred from taking-up the role on account of two historic criminal convictions. The price tag of re-running the election is £1.5 million of taxpayer cash.

A re-run of the Police and Crime Commissioner election in Wiltshire and Swindon will take place on Thursday 19 August. Our brilliant candidate is Councillor Brian Mathew, who has been fighting hard for Wiltshire and Swindon for many years. #wiltshirepcc

@rupertevelyn @Conservatives No mention of apparent inability to understand the PCC rules & guidance on candidate eligibility or even the approx £1.5 million pounds tax-payers have had to fork out for a contest re-run. Epitome of Tory entitlement! Interview @Brian4PCC instead @BBCWiltshire #WiltshirePCC

Brian Mathew is @LibDems candidate for the re-run of the Wiltshire Police and Crime Commissioner election This re-run was caused by Tories fielding an ineligible candidate & is costing the tax-payer around £1.5 million. #VoteBrian4PCC choosemypcc.org.uk/candidates/wil…

The PM can wear his England shirt and string up flags all he wants, but any true England fan would also support our players in their fight against racism. independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

Looking forwards we want to see a citizens advisory group to be created, bringing together key figures from all Swindon heritage and cultural groups. This will give experts and the public a voice when deciding on the next steps to enhancing our cultural and heritage assets.

However, the solution to this problem is not closing them completely , while we wait for a mythical cultural quarter to be built. Instead we want to see public access to the SMAG continued until a new location has been selected.

🟧 Swindon Museum and Art Gallery 🟧 We are glad to see a hostile cabinet member resign and regarding the future of SMAG and Swindon heritage we want to take time to highlight our position. #SMAG #Swindon #Heritage #Culture #Museums

On Wednesday, our Save Oasis Swindon Campaign visited the Director of Seven Capital for a meeting on the future of the Oasis. We left feeling happy, but we can't say anything else just yet. Please see our Facebook page for our joint press statement with @SevenCapital
