Local government needs more equal relationship
All politics is local and that is precisely the message the LGA Conservative Group has been getting across to the candidates in the Conservative leadership election.

Looking forward to conference
Since the new Labour Government was elected in July, no time has been wasted in taking decisive action to put local government on a stronger footing to support delivery of the Government’s missions.
The true party of local government
As this first hits your doormats, Liberal Democrats will be making their annual pilgrimage to the south coast for five days of policy and politics.
Equality, civility and cohesion
Welcome to all our MPs, ministers and valued members.
A return to mission-driven government
As the newly elected Leader of the LGA’s Labour Group, I’m thrilled to be writing under a Labour Government!
Resetting national-local relationships
Recent months have been difficult for Conservatives, particularly in local government. We lost some great Conservative councillors during the local elections in May, and we experienced an incredibly gruelling general election campaign.
Largest number of MPs ever
The general election was historic: it created an earthquake across every region of the country, with the Liberal Democrats making gains from Yorkshire to Dorset, Norfolk to Wales, Inverness to Sussex.
A better focus on the local
Congratulations! What an election for our group members.
Closing the transport accessibility gap
The UK has a proud history of making transport more accessible for disabled people.
Helping councils to deliver
Astonishingly, by the time you read this, we will already be half-way through the general election campaign.
