Commenting on the targeted water fluoridation amendment in the Water Bill, which begins its second reading in the House of Commons today (Monday 8th September), Norman Baker MP, Liberal Democrat Shadow Environment Secretary, said:
Shepway Lib Dem campaigner Peter Carroll has reacted with disappointment and anger at the reaction of Kent County Council Highways Board to the huge petition presented to it by residents of Greatstone, Littlestone and St Mary's Bay - all areas plagued by the problems of unadopted roads. The petition was signed by 272 residents and was presented in March 2003.
Local Lib Dem Campaigners Ann Birchmore and Peter Carroll are tonight celebrating the news that their campaign to get a bin installed on Littlestone Road has been successful.

The decision by Devon County Council to remove the right to free travel to Kingsbridge Community College for students living in South Milton has been condemned as appalling by Totnes Liberal Democrat Parliamentary Spokesperson, Mike Treleaven. The situation has arisen because of the move of Kingsbridge Community College to one site, which reduces the distance that South Milton children travel to under the cut off point of 3 miles necessary for free transport.
