The Liberal Democrats are also calling for Parliament to be recalled immediately so MPs can hold a vote of no confidence in Boris Johnson as Prime Minister, following the revelation that both he and Rishi Sunak are to be fined over lockdown-breaking parties at Number 10.

Paul, who lives in Godalming, was brought up and raised here in Surrey in an army family, attending school in Guildford before going on to study at the University of Surrey. He stood for the Liberal Democrats here at the last general election, where he increased the party's vote share by over 28%, the largest increase in Lib Dem share of the vote of any seat in the country, and slashed the Conservatives majority to less than 9,000.

Annual season ticket prices from Farnham, Godalming and Haslemere to London will rise by between £150 and £170.

Responding to Sue Gray’s update on parties being held in Downing Street during Covid lockdowns, Liberal Democrat Parliamentary Spokesperson for South West Surrey, Paul Follows, said:

Analysis by the Liberal Democrats shows that the average yearly bill for homeowners in Waverley is set to skyrocket by £657 - the equivalent of £54.75 a month - once the new energy price cap comes into effect.

The Liberal Democrats are on track to win seats across the country at the next General Election, including right here in South West Surrey, following their historic by-election victory.

The by-election was called as a result of popular and hardworking Lib Dem borough councillor Richard Cole standing down.

New data from the Joseph Rowntree Foundation exposes the true nature of how badly some areas will be hit by the £20 Universal Credit cut.

Lib Dem Penny Rivers made the proposal to reject the application at Surrey’s planning committee, arguing that the adverse impact on local businesses, roads, the landscape and on the environment outweighed any uncertain national benefits.
