Nigel Evans, MP for the Ribble Valley has voiced his satisfaction at today’s announcement by the Home Secretary that Lancashire will receive 153 new Police Officers in the next 12 months.
I have unfortunately had to take the decision to amend one of my Summer/Autumn Surgery dates - this is due to the possibility of Parliament sitting on Friday 1st November to pass emergency Brexit legislation.
Nigel Evans, MP for the Ribble Valley has expressed his anger at the number of Labour MPs from Lancashire who he says are trying to delay and stop Brexit by any means necessary.
In 2019 the then Minister for Local Government introduced a pilot scheme allowing Lancashire authorities to keep 75 percent of business rate taxes for local spending within the county, up from 50%.
