With the Liberal Democrats now running Gloucester City Council the party is best placed to beat the Conservative incumbent MP on July 4.
The Liberal Democrats were appointed to the leadership of the local authority at Monday afternoon’s annual general meeting of the council.
They won 17 of the 39 seats the council, with the Conservatives on 11 seats, Labour on seven and the Independents on four.
The Liberal Democrats are promising to improve core services, support the local economy, deliver more affordable housing and make Gloucester carbon neutral by 2030.
Gloucester City Council had made it harder to use the pay by phone option – often favoured by elderly residents who do not want to pay online – for the annual £50 bin charge.
Liberal Democrats councillors warning that any further financial shocks during 2023/24 would lead to services being cut to balance the books.
