An Open, Confident Society

Posted on Thursday 3rd March 2011 18:00 by Gordon Bain

Our party leader and Deputy Prime Minister today gave a speech in Luton entitled An Open, Confident Society: The Application of Muscular Liberalism in a Multicultural Society.

Nick’s vision of the ‘UK as an open, confident society; it is by being confident – confident in ourselves, in our communities, and in our values – that we can remain an open, liberal nation’ is one that I know we all share.

As always we appreciate any input from our constituents on these or any other subjects you would like to bring to our attention. Please do not hesitate in contacting us using any of the options available on the Contact Us page.

Making A Difference

Cut tax for those who need it
Thousands of Scots on low and middle incomes are now benefiting from a cut in income tax of £200 thanks to the efforts of Liberal Democrats in the UK Government.

Pension increase guaranteed
So many pensioners find it difficult to make ends meet with rising heating and food prices. That’s why the Liberal Democrats in the UK Government have delivered a guaranteed decent increase in the state pension every year – up £4.50 a week this year.

No child detention
For ten years the children of families looking for refuge in Scotland were detained for months on end at special jail at Dungavel in Lanarkshire. But thanks to the efforts of Liberal Democrats in the UK Government this unacceptable practice has been stopped.
