Dear Editor

The Letter from Janet Kent is quite right to point out the atrocious record of Liverpool Lib Dems selling public Park Land and Green Spaces whenever the magic word regeneration is dangled

However what she conveniently forgot to mention that in every encroachment of Park Land the joke opposition Labour Party has voted with them or just disappeared from debate

For example ,building on and giving away of Stanley Park to a joint venture company, Labour voted with Lib Dems

Building a School on Newsham Park, the Labour Councillors on the Planning Committee went home before the item was debated

Building on the Dixie Dean Fields, Labour Councillors backed plans to build on playing fields rather than on brown field sites

The track records on building on green spaces and parks is equally appalling for both Labour and Lib Dem Councillors, with total justification we describe them both as the bulldozer Coalition – Only the Liberal party has supported local residents fighting the recycling of our parks into building sites
