What happens the day after the next General Election?
In a recent Blog I spoke about the potential end of two-Party politics. Since then we have had three more opinion polls with Lib Dems ranging from first with 30% to fourth with 19%. What doesn’t change is the fact … Continue reading
Liverpool’s iconic World Heritage Status threatened again by council inaction
Next week the UNESCO World Heritage Committee meet and on their agenda for the 8th time is a report on Liverpool’s World Heritage Status. Worryingly, our iconic status of a World Heritage Site is under threat once again because of … Continue reading
Action for climate change at a Local Level
As most people now know Liverpool Council will have a meeting on 17th July devoted, apart from some statutory business, to climate change. This is a hugely important topic and is probably the most important topic facing the World as … Continue reading

Government urged to review running of Liverpool Council
Yesterday I wrote to James Brokenshire, the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government to ask him to order a review of the governance of Liverpool City Council. In my request I cited three things as an example of … Continue reading
The social care crisis is becoming a tsunami of problems
I’ve been in the House of Commons today talking to a newly-established All-Party Group on Social Care. There can be no doubt that consistent under-funding of social care is leading us to a crisis where councils will have to turn … Continue reading
Could or should the Lib Dems work with the Green Party?
I’ve been thinking about this for some time but my thoughts have brought to a head whilst listening to the semi-coherent ramblings of Sian Berry this morning on the Today programme. Sian is, apparently, the co-leader of the Green Party … Continue reading
But what does Richard Kemp think?
