    The Green Liberal Democrats are saddened to hear of the resigination today of Rt Hon Chris Huhne MP from the role of Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change.

    Chris was an excellent advocate for the environmental agenda within both the coalition government and the Liberal Democrat party. There is much he can feel proud of from his 20 months in the role - like his leadership role at the Durban Climate Conference, the huge growth in renewable energy during his tenure, and putting the UK Economy on track to meet its carbon targets.

    Local councillor, Ed Bridges, said: "We've got some fantastic independent shops right on our doorstep, and it's up to us as residents to support local traders if we want to keep a vibrant shopping area."

    We will be holding a workshop to gather interest and develop a strategy at Spring Conference from 6:15-7:30, in the SAGE Centre, on Saturday 10th March!

    We want to have a broader spectrum of people contributing to GLD work and strategy. This year we are holding exec meetings for the first time, over Skype, as well as trying to find venues across the country so that it is less London-centric.
