Derbyshire Dales Liberal Democrats

A Strong Local Voice

We aim to become the largest party on Derbyshire Dales District Council & Derbyshire County Council but to do that we need people to stand as Lib Dem candidates at every election. Are you willing to help us achieve our goal and make Derbyshire and Derbyshire Dales fairer, greener and more Liberal? If you will consider standing as a candidate, please get in touch with Roger Shelley, our local party chair and DDDC Councillor. He is happy to have an informal chat with no obligation and can explain what is involved and the extensive support & training that we can provide. Contact Roger by phone or text on 07887 380334.

Derbyshire Dales Liberal Democrats

Our local party covers the Westminster Constituency of Derbyshire Dales and Derbyshire Dales District Council.

A Progressive Alliance on DDDC

We are the largest party on DDDC and we lead Derbyshire Dales District Council governing in a Progressive Alliance.

Steve Flitter, the Leader of the Liberal Democrats on DDDC said - We are delighted to come together as 3 progressive Parties to offer the residents and businesses of the Derbyshire Dales a new approach to local politics. We know that our District faces many challenges, not least the cost of living crisis, the shortage of affordable housing for our young families and the threat to our environment from new developments and pollution.

Working together we will support our communities in the best and most effective way, and provide them with genuinely value-for-money services.

November is Islamophobia awareness month

November is Islamopbobia Awareness Month and the horrifying petrol bombing at the Manston migration centre, proves that when inflammatory rhetoric is used by politicians and the media, then the result can literally be incendiary. The bomber's Facebook page was filled with hate-filled rants against migrants and Muslims. Politicians must be held to account for their words. They stoke fear and anger that is often misplaced and can be dangerous.

When anticipated humility became a blame-fest

Suella Braverman approached the Dispatch Box on Monday (October 31st) faced with such a catalogue of complaints laid against her that most politicians would have shown contrition and resigned. But Braverman envelopes herself in a cloak of self esteem and mock humility and derides criticism as the mistakes of others' misunderstanding of her 'alternative facts'.
