Local community groups are set to fold thanks to the Conservative run Council closing Farnborough Community Centre. Earlier this year the Farnborough Community Centre Association trustees announced they could no longer run the centre beyond the end of 2018. The trustees are getting older and couldn't find anyone new to look after the community centre on a voluntary basis.
Hampshire County Council recently held a public consultation on its controversial proposal to turn most of Lynchford Road, connecting the A331 Blackwater Valley Route and the A325 Farnborough Road, into a dual carriageway to take the traffic created by the airport and exhibition centre. Local developers will contribute over £2 million towards the Council's scheme.

Your Lib Dem campaign team continues to monitor the impact of the new smart motorway system recently installed along the Farnborough section of the M3 motorway.
Health workers ranging from doctors, dentists, nurses and midwives to cleaners and porters are to receive a 1% pay rise. Commenting on the news, Liberal Democrat leader Tim Farron said the government are treating staff like 'dirt'. He says:
The UK needs to strengthen both our Armed Forces and our soft power.
Today is Holocaust Memorial Day.
The UK must once again stand tall, leading on the world stage and working closely with those who share our interests – including, above all, our partners in Europe.
