Back in March, the Liberal Democrats said they needed more money to fix our roads. This month, after months of Conservative scrutiny, they have finally admitted why.
At the Budget in February, heralded by the Liberal Democrat Administration at the time, official Council figures reveal that they cut funding for the Highways Department by £5.7m. That's £5.7m less money being spent to fix our roads and pavements.
We have said all along that we agree more money is needed to fix the roads. But the Liberal Democrats wouldn't listen. Preferring spin over debate - but you cannot fix the roads on press releases alone.
Our Conservative team will continue to do the hard work holding the Lib Dems to account to the promises they made to you.

Although the weather was extremely hot last week, Ayletts garden centre was an absolute riot of colour. Many congratulations to the experienced staff for making it so.

Kemi is totally correct here, hard
-working people should not have to foot the UK’s ballooning benefits bill!
Conservatives call on the Government to cut the benefits bill
Under Labour welfare spending has spiralled out of control, and it isn’t slowing down.

Congratulations to the new Mayor and Deputy Mayor of St Albans! 👏🏛️
Unlike the political mayoralties, ours is a purely civic and ceremonial role. It’s a proud tradition dating back to 1553, when King Edward VI granted St Albans the right to have a Mayor—alongside our famous twice-weekly charter market, which still thrives every Wednesday and Saturday!
Serving as Mayor is a tremendous honour and a fantastic opportunity to champion and support vital organisations across our city and district.
Wishing them both a highly successful year in office!

🚨 Less than 24 HOURS to go!
Colney Heath and Smallford have been ignored for too long.
Frances LEONARD, a local resident of 50 years. An active environmentalist, who also helps with Smallford Station renovations and hosts pop-up cafes.
Frances is the only candidate with a plan to actually improve our villages. If elected this Thursday, she will:
🛑 Stop heavy lorries rat-running on our local roads.
🌳 Protect our Green Belt from aggressive over-development.
💷 Hold the Council to account to fix potholes and stop wasted spending.
A protest vote won't fix our local issues. Vote for a proven local champion who will put our community first, not Westminster.

Politics isn't just about Westminster—it’s about what happens right outside your front door. 🏡
From the state of our pavements to the cost of popping into town, your daily life is shaped by the District Council. But for too long, the current Lib Dem leadership has treated St Albans residents like an ATM.
This Thursday, 7th May, vote for a local Council that works for you.
A vote for the St Albans Conservatives is a vote to:
🚫 Scrap unfair parking hikes
🛍️ Protect our High Street businesses
🌳 Defend our local green spaces
💷 Restore sensible financial control and stop the waste
It’s your city and your money. Let's get St Albans back on track. 🗳️
(Don't forget you need Photo ID to vote this Thursday!)
