LIB DEM COUNCILLORS RESIGN FROM STOCKPORT LIBDEM GROUP
Two long standing LibDem Councillors have resigned from Stockport LibDem Group as they can no longer support the policies being pursued by their Party as part of the Tory-led Government.
Cllr David White and Cllr Roy Driver will form a new Independent Group on Stockport Council. They have both applied to join the Labour Party and have agreed to take the Labour whip.
Cllr Andy Verdeille said “I am not at all surprised these Councillors find themselves unable to continue their support for this Tory-led Coalition. The impact of the cuts being imposed on Stockport will be catastrophic for jobs and services. I hope more LibDem Councillors will seriously question just how much they are prepared to support”.
