Lincolnshire residents told the council they want:

✅ Shorter queues
✅ Better traffic management
✅ Better access

Reform’s answer?

A booking system.

Before decisions are made, we’re launching a survey to hear directly from residents.

Good turnout last night for a meeting to discuss the future of the Houblon Arms in Oasby. It was agreed to resist plans to apply for a change of use to residential to planners. Fight now on to save this historic & once popular pub

@LincsTories Since being elected Cain has been v principled & hardworking in standing up for Grantham residents whom he puts first.

[Lincolnshire Tories @LincsTories]

Before the election Reform said they wouldn’t raise your council tax.

Now they’ve put it up by 2.9%.

And they’re denying they ever made the promise.

We have the video!

You can’t say one thing to get elected and do the opposite in office.

Are our community fire stations at risk? There is a review instigated by the new Reform council looking at LCC Fire estate. The relevant executive member was unable to offer a commitment that no Fire stations in Lincs will close.

County Council budget meeting today, we will be setting Council Tax & service delivery for next year.

Deteriorating roads. I was informed that potholes had been repaired on this Fen Rd - a shame that the contractors didn’t do these nearby whilst they were there.

[Martin Hill @CllrmHill]

S Forty ft drain pretty high today after heavy rain this week. Still reasonable capacity though & Environment Agency repairs holding well

REFORM FACTCHECK: If only this was true, @lincolnshirecc figures published: https://t.co/4Xldjo2x4l

These tell a very difference story:
❌ Resurfacing: down from 116miles > 75miles
❌ Surface dressing: down 174miles > 162miles
❌ Footway surfacing: down: 267 sites to 183 sites

I really don’t understand why Cllr Matthews keeps denying that he & his executive voted to recommend a 4.9% council tax increase on 6Jan. At least they responded to our pressure & have now reduced it but it’s still an increase

[Martin Hill @CllrmHill]

@BLTRobinsonRUK @reformparty_uk You promised to cut council tax not put it up though

[Martin Hill @CllrmHill]

@LincsTories Good news that Reform councillors have reacted to our pressure to protect council taxpayers. Considering the extra £36m they have received from government it is the least they could do.

[Richard Davies @rgdavies]

Very awkward - said the same here in Lincs..

[Lincolnshire Tories @LincsTories]

💷 Don’t Max Out Lincolnshire

More funding is coming in after years of Conservative work to secure a fairer deal.

Yet Reform at Lincolnshire County Council propose the maximum council tax rise, while cutting roads and services.

Reform promised to lower council tax.

Their first budget delivers the maximum 4.99% rise, above inflation, despite record extra government funding.

Higher bills. More borrowing. Roads cut. Local investment scrapped.

Reform UK promised to “do politics differently”.

Instead, the Greater Lincs Mayor is:

🔹 Doubling her office budget (£115k → £262k)

🔹 Adding senior posts with big salaries & bonuses

🔹 Overspending £630k on the election

Residents deserve results, not bloated bureaucracy.

[Lincolnshire Tories @LincsTories]

Budget 2025 brings record tax rises and leaves rural counties like ours carrying the cost.
❌ No rural proofing.
❌ No plan for growth.
❌ No support for family farms.
✅ Lincolnshire Conservatives will keep pushing for a fairer deal.

Good to welcome @KemiBadenoch to Grantham on the hundredth anniversary of the birth of Margaret Thatcher who is an inspiration to many of us.

[Martin Hill @CllrmHill]

Have a great Lincolnshire day everyone. Lincolnshire First!

[Martin Hill @CllrmHill]

We said goodbye today to a long standing servant of Lincolnshire. 40 years a County Councillor Chairman twice & interim Leader. RIP
