Talking Politics by Councillor William Hobhouse
Why do people drink Bottled Water or drink from water coolers? - A few reasons spring to mind; Refreshment is the obvious reason and another is to be more healthy. A few cups of fresh water are good for you and are better than coffee or fizzy pop. Why do I mention this? Well, the recent uninformed debate on how this Council uses water - driven by the Conservatives and paddled along with by Labour has certainly got people talking. As Finance Portfolio Holder I have strived to find the best value for money solutions to how this Council spend their money. Indeed under the Liberal Democrats this Council is set to have its lowest Council Tax increase for over a decade. I was surprised at the Conservative Groups attempt to court publicity in this way. The Labour Party say they'd do the same - but why did they not do this last year when they had power?

Help shape our next manifesto
For the next election the Liberal Democrats will produce a web-based interactive manifesto, which will use audio-visual communications as its centrepiece rather than the written word. To work towards that, a discussion site for party members has been launched allowing party members - including members of DELGA - to influence the tone and direction of the final manifesto. Commenting, Steve Webb said:"This site is all about giving party members a real say in our manifesto for the next General Election. Unlike the other parties, we want a genuine conversation, and the manifesto we produce will be better as a result.
