3 weeks ago by richmondlibdems Not impressed that @lidluk in #Richmond have removed our recycling zone by the entrance to their car park. This was much used and much needed by the town. Now we only have the site in Nun’s Close Car Park - not enough for a town our size clearly as it is always overflowing with rubbish. Surely as a responsible retailer #Lidl should be supporting efforts to help us recycle rather than making it harder? Come on Richmond District Council - pile on the pressure and make them rethink this decision or find another solution to help Richmond recycle smarter. #recycle

2 weeks ago by richmondlibdems ‪Our #RichmondYorks Tory MP #RishiSunak takes credit for keeping A&E open in neighbouring County Durham. But what about the threat to #NorthallertonFriarage here in his own constituency? We need 7 Junior #anaethetists fast to keep our A&E open. Without it constituents in the #YorkshireDales #Bedale and #Northallerton face impossibly long hospital journeys. Time is running out. So go get us the visas please Rishi. #saveourNHS ‬ #NHSVoices
