Simon Mc Dougall, leader of Arun's Liberal Democrat councillors went walkabout in Littlehampton town centre on Saturday (5th April) with other local councillors and activists to talk to residents and hear their concerns.
Simon said;- "I get the real sense that people are angry, they are angry at all politicians, but especially at this government that promised so much. We are campaigning against the government's ID database which will cost the public a fortune and will be a bureaucratic nightmare. It won't prevent illegal working. It won't help stop crime or terrorism. If the government really wants to make an impact on crime, terrorism and illegal immigration, the money it has earmarked for this scheme would be far better spent on more police and intelligence officers. That is what the Liberal Democrats would do."
Simon added;- "The Liberal Democrats work all-year-round and take the commitment to our constituents seriously. We met several members of the public today who wanted to join the Liberal Democrats to help us work for a fairer, freer and greener Britain"
