Welcome to Nottingham Liberal Democrats

Freedom, Fairness, Trust Logo

We're about Freedom, Fairness and Trust.

Free education and healthcare so that everyone is free to make the most of their lives. Fair taxes, because where necessary, taxes should help improve our environment or make life in Britain more fair, not less. And finally, Trust, because it is time to restore trust in government. Our manifesto is fully costed so we can tell you what you'll get and how we'll pay for it.

Our intention is that this website will be a useful resource for local people to find out more about the local Liberal Democrats and the campaigns we are running.

However, we would like it to be more than that - we would like to hear from you. Online you can:
