A Progressive Alliance for Derbyshire Dales District

We are the largest party on the District Council and we lead the 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.

In a reply to a letter written by Ashbourne Lib Dem Peter Dobbs, a spokesman for Derbyshire Dales District Council defended their lack of progress in addressing the issue of very high levels of NOx pollution on Buxton Road. Their statement was issued on the very same day that the Coroner at the inquest into the death of Ella Kissi-Debrah, who died in Feb 2013 in Lewisham, had found that air pollution was a contributory cause of death.
