Fri 25th Apr 2008
Liberal Democrat Councillors last night won the chance for the people of Swindon to choose whether or not they have a canal through the town as part of the redevelopment plans. The Conservative-led council's controversial £69 million project will be the subject of a local referendum after the vote on a Lib Dem proposal at the council meeting last night.

| Quotes of the Week |

"Liberalism in Britain has lost a great champion, the Liberal Democrats, a great advocate and our public life, a great servant. "
Lord Paddy Ashdown
In memory of Lord Richard Holme, who died on 5 May
"If the Tories want to claim that they are going to cut corporation tax, they have to come clean about how they are going to pay for it. Cutting the main rate of corporation tax to 25% will cost more than £5bn a year. If David Cameron is to have a hope of sounding credible he must state clearly where the money will come from. Otherwise this will be seen as yet another unfunded tax cut. "
