As part of its 'Backing Local Business' campaign, the Warrington Guardian asked for a comment from former Council Leader Cllr Ian Marks on the response from the Government and the Council to the pandemic.
Cllr Bob Barr, Liberal Democrat Group Leader on Warrington Borough Council, commented to the BBC and Warrington Guardian as the town's economic recovery begins:
Local Liberal Democrats have added their weight to calls for the Government to give more financial support to Councils helping their communities fight the effects of the pandemic.
292 Conservative MPs voted to allow sewage dumping by water companies in our rivers, lakes and coasts for at least 15 more years.
Lib Dems set out plan to tackle NHS crisis including recruiting more GPs and allowing pharmacists to prescribe more medicines
The government needs to step up efforts to recover billions of pounds in unpaid taxes, instead of asking the public to clean up their mess.
