@markjenkinsonmp @Cumberland_Cons And of course this supposed £10million figure is only possible by imagining that not getting a second helping of some one off funding - which he knew was one off - from the previous year counts as a cut. Pathetic stuff.

👑 🕳 Cumbria was recently crowned the ‘Pot Hole Capital’ of England
⏭ That’s why we’ve put forward an amendment to the County Council’s budget to get Cumbrian’s motoring on smooth roads again
🛣 Thanks to Conservatives in Council, we’ve secured an £1.2m to invest in our roads

Residents of #BelleVue #SandsfieldPark #Yewdale #X04 Following on from our Police And Community Survey from 21/09/21 our friends from MSG have been helping out with this today. Whilst in BelleVue, they seized an uninsured car, arrested a drug driver & worked school patrol #2924

@BBCRobertCooper Cumbria gets a decent mid table spot, but yhe article gets one thing wrong - Copeland was rebranded during the 2011-15 council.

It’s been over 11 years since I was first elected as the MP for Carlisle. It’s a huge honour and privilege to represent the community I live in. Looking back there are a number of achievements I’m personally proud of. I’d like to share these now. https://t.co/fDDhgfYqfh

When a green councillor puts herself down to give a speech on how important a climate conference is - and can't even get the name of the conference right ... https://t.co/6Ow6rduKFH

Conservative councillors and MPs proud of the achievements made over the last 18 months, especially protecting the homeless during the pandemic #cpc2021

The Conservatives are the ONLY group on the county council who have done anything to stop the Council wasting hundreds of thousands of pounds on a pointless, doomed legal challenge to cutting the number of councils in Cumbria.

[Cumbria County Council Conservative Group @CCCConsGroup]

Cabinet of @CumbriaCC approved going to the courts to try and scupper going to two councils in Cumbria. The deputy leader @PeterThornton10 and his spineless @LibDems abstained despite saying repeatedly they were against this move.

[BBC Cumbria @BBC_Cumbria]

This has now been confirmed. The current districts of Allerdale, Copeland and Carlisle will form one council, while Barrow, Eden and South Lakeland will form the other. Listen from 6 tomorrow for all the details and reaction https://t.co/hLjukvswYL
