COR said: "Tim Bearder's conduct following his 2024 election loss resembled Trump's actions after the 2021 election. To think that a 'liberal' and 'democratic' party selected this individual to lead its group is incomprenehsible. We urge them to reconsider.'

COR today welcomed Gant's resignation saying: 'It will take a decade to undo Gant's destruction of Oxford mobility, and longer still to restore faith in local politics. Gant's uncompromising agenda has harmed working people and positioned councils against residents.'

2025: THE YEAR THE COUNCIL DECLARED WAR ON RESIDENTS. Residents remembered 2025 as the year the Lib Dems imposed the so-called Congestion charge, despite overwhelming opposition. COR said: 'This has been a bad year for governance, and set the liberal cause back by 30 years.'

It is understood that the ghost of Christmas future will visit Gant tonight. We understand the ghost of Christmas future will show a sweeping @Ind_Ox_Alliance majority, and the tyrannically liberal dems out of power for a generation.

COR said: 'we thank the ghost of Christmas present for highlighting this. Today, residents can't take public transport. Gant's refusal to cancel his tax between christmas and New year's, like in London, is tearing families apart and highlights a deeply ideological position'.

@OxfordshireCC imposed a congestion charge last month, alleging it would make the city easier to get around. The charge was overwhelmingly opposed by the public. COR said ‘the public have been devastated by this extreme administration. It’s time to accept this policy has failed’

COR said: 'The charge is being imposed on uncongested roads that are key links. Residents now need to drive much further to get to their destination, while road capacity lies empty. This is a new extreme of policy failure'.
