Medway council's plans to fight the climate emergency has been given an embarrassing set back after it emerged that they might not get planning permission from themselves to install solar panels on their own building at Gun Wharf.
Medway Liberal Democrats are calling on Medway Council take a lead on tax avoidance and promote companies and organisations that pay their fair share of tax.
Medway Liberal Democrats are supporting UK Bike Week from 6th - 12th June, which gives an opportunity to promote the social, health and environmental benefits of cycling around our towns. Bike Week, delivered by Cycling UK, is an annual celebration to showcase cycling, and this years theme is health and wellbeing.
We are pleased to announce the launch of the our online petition to ban conversion therapy. Last year when the Medway Liberal Democrat team were at Medway Pride, LGBT+ people, friends, family and allies signed our petition calling for the practice to be banned. The link to our petition is here: http://medwaylibdems.org.uk/BanAllConversionTherapy
Recently Peel L&P announced the results of a survey of 101 people showing 77 people supported their proposals. Medway Liberal Democratic ran a survey, 212 people responded and 203 voted for keeping the Docks. These two surveys demonstrate that the issue does not have the clear cut support Peel L&P is claiming.
World Environment Day - a UN initiative - takes place each year on the 5th June, and it's a day that raises awareness on environmental issues and challenges. This year's theme is Only One Earth, highlighting the need to live sustainably in harmony with nature by bringing transformative changes - through policies and our choices - towards cleaner, greener lifestyles.
