Helen Morgan MP visited Worcester on Saturday to speak at a packed Liberal Democrat event, addressing party members, councillors, and local activists on key national and local issues.
In her speech, Helen highlighted the party’s strong support for Ukraine and the importance of Britain standing firm in its commitment to democracy and international cooperation. She also raised concerns about the rise of far-right extremism, warning of the dangers it poses to liberal values and social justice.
The event brought together members from across Worcester to discuss the pressing challenges facing both the city and county. With public services under pressure after years of Conservative neglect, the Liberal Democrats emphasised the need for fresh leadership and a renewed focus on protecting vital local services.
Stuart Wild, Chair of Worcester Liberal Democrats, said “Helen’s visit was a reminder of the importance of standing up for our communities. From crumbling local services to the cost-of-living crisis, there is so much work to do after years of Conservative mismanagement.”
Cllr Sarah Murray added “It was fantastic to see so many members and supporters come together for such a positive evening. Events like this remind us why we campaign—to build a stronger, fairer society. Whether someone has been a lifelong Liberal Democrat or has just joined, everyone plays a part in making a difference. The sense of energy and optimism in the room was infectious, and I know this momentum will carry us into a strong local election campaign.”
The event comes as concerns grow over service cuts and mounting frustration with the Conservative-run county and city councils. Worcester Liberal Democrats continue to push for action on key issues including housing, social care, and environmental protection.
