Over 20 million working people will be better off next year after Liberal Democrats in the Coalition Government delivered the biggest ever increase in the income tax personal allowance in the Budget.

The massive £3.5bn tax cut for working people delivers:

• The biggest ever single uplift in the tax threshold
• A personal allowance of £9,205 in April 2013
• 21 million working people getting an extra £220 tax cut
• Brings the total tax cut for basic rate tax payers to £550
• Brings the total number of people lifted out of tax to 2 million.

Liberal Democrat Leader Nick Clegg used his speech to the Party's Spring conference in NewcastleGateshead to call for the forthcoming budget to be a "budget for fairness" and pledged that it would help working familes.

The Deputy Prime Minister pledged that by 2015 Britain would have seen an end to control orders, the first gay marriages and the first elections to the House of Lords.

Fairer taxes, promoting green jobs, protecting your civil liberties - these are just some of the achievements of the Liberal Democrats in government.

We're building a freer, greener and more liberal country - and stopping some of the worst excesses of the Conservatives. Find out more in this infographic.

In his keynote speech to the Liberal Democrat Conference, Party Leader and Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has outlined his goals for the Government and the country over the coming years. He reiterated his commitment to liberal values on the environment and human rights and his determination to ensure a fair chance for every child, saying "every child can do good things, great things, if only we give them the opportunities they deserve."

On 5th May you have a choice. You can keep the discredited First Past the Post system to elect our MPs, or you can choose a new and fairer system - Alternative Vote (AV). Back the campaign for change at www.YesToFairerVotes.org

AV is a small change that makes a big difference.

Saying YES! to Fairer Votes Means:

Mitch Manning - a fresh start for Aldershot

Michelle (known as Mitch) Manning is the Liberal Democrat campaigner for Aldershot's Wellington ward.

Mitch is 33 and has lived at Wingate Court in Wellington ward for the past 8 years. Living in the ward means she understands what it is like living close to Aldershot town centre and will be able to pick up on local problems quickly.

A petition calling on all Liberal Democrat MPs to vote against the proposed rise in tuition fees has been signed by Adrian Collett, the Lib Dems' candidate for Aldershot, Blackwater and Farnborough in 2010.

The petition has been established in opposition to the coalition government's current proposed policy on tuition fees and has been signed by 104 of the Liberal Democrat Parliamentary Candidates at the 2010 General Election including Adrian Collett.

Cllr Hazel Manning would like the Council to make a decision on the future of the Jubilee Club as soon as possible.

The in-depth consultation is complete. An early decision is needed as the building continues to deteriorate and delay into 2011 risks increasing the cost of refurbishment and reducing options as spending gets restricted by national pressures on the Council's budget. Everything in the consultation points to a community centre that can be used by all residents in North Farnborough.

Sue Gadsby and the St Mark's campaign team have been out and about speaking to local residents. It will come as no surprise that parking is the number one issue people raised us on the doorstep.

Whether it's double parking, local garages illegally parking their vehicles or just too many cars on the streets, parking is still by far your biggest bugbear.
