Windsor Liberal Democrats

A SENIOR Conservative councillor is plotting a party leadership challenge in the Royal Borough, according to Observer sources.

Bisham and Cookham ward councillor Richard Kellaway is sounding out support for a potential leadership bid to overthrow Royal Borough council leader Cllr David Burbage, according to sources.

A freedom of information request, submitted by Windsor Liberal Democrats' has revealed the lack of facilities at the Royal Borough's proposed new fire station at the council's Tinkers Lane Depot. The building, which will cost around £400,000, (2) will be a modular structure, served by a fire engine based in Slough and will be missing many of the essentials required to operate as a proper fire station.

CURIOUS minds could soon be guided through a town's history via a special tour.

Councillor George Fussey, Royal Borough councillor for Eton, announced plans for the Eton History Trail during Tuesday's Royal Borough Visitor Management Forum, held at The Guildhall in High Street, Windsor.

Underfoot stones would depict famous faces from Eton's history, starting on the Windsor side of Windsor and Eton Bridge and continuing along both sides of High Street, Eton, and could stretch as far as Eton College.

Liberal Democrats in Windsor & Maidenhead are celebrating another crucial by-election win, gaining a seat from the Conservatives. Labour dropped to last place behind UKIP.

THE decision to leave Windsor fire station unmanned for four nights last week has been slammed for putting residents at risk - because firefighters were on Olympic Games duty.

There was no one at the station in St Mark's Road, from 8pm on Saturday, July 28, Sunday, July 29, Wednesday, August 1 and Thursday, August 2 - leaving the Windsor area to be covered by pumps at other stations including Slough and Langley.
