Councillor Mike Prendergast (Dukes Ward)

Dukes Ward councillor, Mike Prendergast, is calling on Sefton Council to make the process of improving Children’s Social Services more transparent.

At last night’s Sefton Council  budget meeting, Conservatives proposed investing over £750,000 in our green spaces and recreational services.

Councillor Tony Brough the Leader of the Sefton Conservative Group and a Councillor for Ainsdale has expressed his great concern over the decision made by the Liberal Democrat Group to resign their seat on the Planning Committee to which they are entitled under the Council’s Constitution.

On Tuesday evening, Sefton Council’s Overview & Scruitiny Committee met to consider the results of the cycle lane consultation, which was published earlier this month.

Southport Conservatives are demanding that Sefton Labour listen to the people of Southport and abandon their plans to impose more cycle lanes on the town.

The Southport Conservative council group have decided to retract a requisition for a full extraordinary meeting of the council to discuss the consultation into the cycle lane proposals for Southport.

Dukes Ward Councillor, Mike Prendergast, has hit out at ‘Liveable Neighbourhood’  proposals by Sefton Council. The proposals affects parts of Dukes Ward and Kew Ward and involve limiting access to at least 13 roads. 

During a heated debate at the recent Sefton Council meeting, Conservative Councillor Mike Prendergast, has criticised the Labour Party in Sefton for presiding over a failing Children’s Social Services Department.

Sefton Council have been heavily criticised following the latest OFSTED report on the current state of children’s social services in Sefton, delivered earlier this year.

Sefton’s Conservative Councillors were recently given a tour of the newly refurbished Southport Market which is scheduled to open towards the end of June.
