Barnet Liberal Democrats' last ditch effort to save the Sheltered Housing Service floundered this evening (18 June) on the Chairman of the Business Management Overview and Scrutiny sub Committee's casting vote. Cllr Jack Cohen, leader of Barnet Liberal Democrats, had called in the cabinet decision to scrap the Sheltered Housing Warden Service. Cllr Cohen, who had forced Conservative Cabinet Member Richard Cornelius to justify the proposed cuts, said he was bitterly disappointed with the outcome.

Thank you for your support in last week's elections. Across the country, the Lib Dems achieved a record high vote share of 28 per cent and beat Labour into third place. We won almost three times as many council seats as Labour (484 Liberal Democrat councillors to Labour's 178) and added Bristol to the list of major cities run by Liberal Democrats that also includes Cardiff, Liverpool, Newcastle, Sheffield and Edinburgh. In the Euro elections, the Lib Dems gained an MEP, and have representation in every Region in England.
