Liberal Democrats call on Conservative administrations to reopen waste and recycling sites and restart garden waste collection

Liberal Democrat Councillors across West Sussex are calling on the Conservative administration of West Sussex County Council to reopen Household Waste Recycling Sites (HWRSs) and are asking Conservative-controlled Mid Sussex District Council to restart garden waste collections. This follows an increase in flytipping being reported by district councils across the county and the anecdotal reporting of increased numbers of bonfires by residents.

Local businessman Gaj Ragunathan explains why he's voting for Robert Eggleston:

"It's neck and neck here, we've got to get out and vote for the Liberal Democrats"

Gaj will be voting for the Liberal Democrats on Thursday, recognising the work Robert Eggleston does in the local community and because he supports Liberal Democrat policies.

A great evening with Baroness Parminter and our Mid Sussex candidate Robert Eggleston last week to learn how the Lib Dems can tackle the environment issues facing us.

The Lib Dem manifesto sets out a number of key pledges to deal with climate change including generating 80% of our electricity from renewables by 2030, the retro-fit of 26 million homes by 2030 to the highest energy standards, planting 60 billion trees a year and ensuring all new cars sold are electric by 2030.

The Liberal Democrats are the only party contesting this election with a clear plan for how we will build a brighter future - and there is a reason why both YouGov and Tactical Voting state that we are the only party that can oust the Tories in Mid Sussex, so vote Robert Eggleston to really make a difference.

Voters across Mid Sussex will get their chance to hear from Parliamentary Candidates across parties before making up their minds about who gets their vote at the General Election on Thursday 12th December.

The first evening of debate takes place this Friday 6th December, 7pm at:

St Andrew's Church, 2 Cants Lane, Burgess Hill, RH15 0LG
