Retail park update - water works completed, progress on ALDI, look out for new website...
The Liberal Democrats are the only party to have been given a tour of the site of the new St Michael's Retail Park on the Harrow Way. The on-site project manager, from Bowmer & Kirkland, explained that all of the underground water drainage and sewage pipework has now been completed. The steelwork for the new ALDI store is also now finished, and the roof and walls will be completed early in May, making the building watertight. The plan is to hand over the building to ALDI in July, ahead of the store opening in October. Work on the remaining units is planned to be completed for opening by early December. The developers intend to launch an information website in a few weeks' time so that you can keep up to date with the development and store opening dates. Look out for more information soon...

Benchmarking the Lib Dem local election performance
The first Thursday in May sees a big round of local elections across England (along with a few extra by-elections scheduled for that day). Most of the seats up for election were last fought four years ago, which means there will be rich pickings for anyone wanting to talk up or talk down any party. That's because you can legitimately argue over whether the best comparisons are with last year (the last big round of locals) or with four years ago (the last time most of these seats were fought). Add to that the massive decline in Ukip over the last four years, giving scope for all parties to hope to gain votes or seats from them, and it's even possible every major party will be able to talk about being a winner.
