The Conservatives have failed Barnet. You can make Barnet a better place by voting for more Liberal Democrat Councillors this Thursday.

Our 8 priorities for Barnet are:

1. More Police
2. Protect our Greenbelt & stop overdevelpment
3. Support more secondary school places
4. Use builder's levies to fund more GP places
5. Reverse the disasterous Tory Library cuts
6. Adopt new streets to save residents money
7. Fix potholes properly and guarantee weekly bin collections
8. Review expensive OneBarnet contracts that are wasting millions.

The Liberal Democrats today received the backing of former Conservative Mill Hill Councillor Sury Khatri who was deselected by his own party in the run up to this year's Council Elections in Barnet.

Sury Khatri, who represented Mill Hill as a Conservative Councillor from 2010 until he resigned the whip in response to his deselection this year, said, "it has been an honour to serve as community champion for the residents of Mill Hill for 8 years. In that time I have tried my best to take up their issues and deliver real positive changes, such as the Diving Club, the future of the Library and with the many planning applications we have received. I fear though that my zealous advocacy for the residents of Mill Hill may have cost me the selection. As Cllr Dan Thomas [chair of Hendon Conservatives] lays the ground for his right wing and hard Brexit based leadership coup, he only wants 'yes' men in the Conservative group, and thus I have been discarded. Astonishing that after 8 years of serving the community, without a blemish on my record and more than a decade serving the party I have been silenced."

1 Continue our record of listening to you, and responding promptly to your concerns;

2 Ensure the Council deals promptly with broken roads and pavements, litter & potholes;

3 Guarantee weekly bin collections;

4 Oppose further cuts to our police, and promote community, outreach and youth projects, which tackle the root causes of crime;
