Cllr Ralph Muncer

I’m truly honoured to have been elected as the @hertscc County Councillor for Knebworth and Codicote. This is a crucial time for our community and I look forward to working hard to deliver on the local priorities of residents in our communities ⬇️

With Council Tax bills landing on doormats across North Herts informing hard-working people that yet again, their Council Tax will be increasing despite the quality of the service received going down, here’s a reminder that the @Conservatives tried to cut your bills ⬇️

I’ve written to the Chief Executive of SADC to request this fly-tipping is removed and I’m working with my colleague, Cllr Matt Cowley who serve as Leader of the @Conservatives at SADC to find out how Council publications end up being fly-tipped between Kimpton and Codicote. 2/2

Brilliant to join over 50 people at the weekend in Kimpton for the annual village litter pick! It was a particular shame to see so many instances of fly-tipping, including numerous copies of the @StAlbansCouncil Community News which have been dumped in a ditch. 1/2

Education should be the foremost priority of the Liberal Democrat Administration at @hertscc, yet within their budget we saw nothing that will provide much needed support to schools and teachers to tackle the most pressing challenges in classrooms across the County ⬇️

@tweetdodger Thanks Steve.

@WRNHerts_Cambs @RalphMuncer Thank you for speaking up for women's safety & dignity, @RalphMuncer

Another 'Trans Rights' motion passed at council last night. This time @NorthHertsDC. Lots of issues with the motion which is similar to the one passed by St Albans Council - chief amongst them is that it signals trans rights are elevated over others - including women 1/4

@Rookerylaw @WRNHerts_Cambs Thanks @Rookerylaw.

@WRNHerts_Cambs @RalphMuncer Indeed. Thank you @RalphMuncer.

@WRNHerts_Cambs Thanks @WRNHerts_Cambs. Women have had to fight for their rights for many years and I’m incredibly concerned by the increasing erosion of protections for women and girls in the name of gender ideology. Rest assured, I’ll continue to stand up and defend women’s rights in Herts.

One cllr recognises the issues with the motion and speaks about the importance of women's rights. Unfortunately two women then turn on him in the chamber in their speeches. However he stood his ground to vote against. Thank you @RalphMuncer for defending women (see 2 hr 16) 4/4

@JanGoodeve @WRNHerts_Cambs @NorthHertsDC Thanks Jan. One of my principle concerns with this motion was how it could result in NHDC implementing policy which would put it in conflict with the judgment, including weakening protections for women only spaces and that’s not something I was willing to support.

@WRNHerts_Cambs @RalphMuncer Well done @RalphMuncer the women of #Hertfordshire are watching and taking note @NorthHertsDC #Conservatives

Last night, the @Conservatives at @NorthHertsDC proposed to cut Council Tax this year and ensure it is frozen for the year after. However, Labour and the Liberal Democrats blocked our plans by voting against our proposed cut to Council Tax, instead choosing to increase it.

To fix the broken and unsustainable SEND system, the Government needed to announce radical measures in their Schools White Paper yesterday. Instead, they announced reforms which rather than fix the system for families and schools, simply compound the problems.

Yet again, the Liberal Democrats are increasing our Council tax by the maximum allowed. But across Hertfordshire, there are thousands who no longer believe they are getting good value for money for the ever-increasing amount of tax they pay ⬇️

Yesterday, @Nigel_Farage tried to claim that Reform "never once" promised to cut council tax. Well, they did. And we kept the receipts.

I’m delighted to have secured a Rural and Small Schools Resilience Strategy for Hertfordshire which will provide Headteachers and School Governors with a toolkit they can use to boost the adaptability of schools across our County ⬇️

@PeterRuffles Thank you Peter for your very kind wishes. I hope you had a great Christmas and sending you my best wishes for 2026!

@RalphMuncer Christmas good wishes to North Herts, and to its upstanding representative Ralph, from the County town.

Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas!🎄

Whilst this announcement should be welcomed, it’s only a partial u-turn and the Family Farms Tax should be scrapped in it’s entirety. Labour has repeatedly shown they are no friend of rural communities in North Herts, and for many families this u-turn is too little, too late.

My thoughts following the successful vote of no confidence in the Leader of @NorthHertsDC last night ⬇️

This evening, the Labour Leader of @NorthHertsDC will face a vote of no confidence following Cabinet’s decision to ignore the will of Council on LGR. It’s the duty of the opposition to hold those in power to account and that’s exactly what the @Conservatives intend to do ⬇️

Every year @HFRS attends over 11,000 incidents across the County, and I recently had the privilege to spend a shift with Green Watch followed by a visit to Fire Control and Hitchin Fire Station where I saw firsthand the extraordinary work undertaken to protect our communities.

It’s no wonder voters in Hitchin feel betrayed by Labour, not just because they were promised their taxes wouldn’t increase but because our local MP, Alistair Strathern, is the Chancellor's Parliamentary Private Secretary - her eyes and ears in the House of Commons.
