Anniversary Dinner: Celebrating Sutton's Liberal Council at 40

  • 10 Oct 2026
  • 7.00 pm - 11.00 pm
  • Gander Green Lane
    Sutton
    SM1 2EH

In 1986, the SDP-Liberal Alliance took control of Sutton Council, marking one of the key national breakthroughs at local government for the movement that would become the Liberal Democrats.

Forty years later, the Liberal Democrats have not just retained control of the council, but won a historic number of councillors in May 2026. Sutton remains the longest-held Council for the Liberal Democrats anywhere in the country.

The 40-year-long story of the Liberal and Liberal Democrat administration of Sutton is the story of thousands of hardworking activists, hundreds of inspirational councillors, and so many truly brilliant leaders.

Join us for a special dinner to celebrate the 40th anniversary of that first election win, and hear from Lord Tope (who has been there for every one of those forty years!) and party leader Sir Ed Davey about what makes Sutton's track record of delivering for residents and excellent Liberal Democrat campaigning so special.

How Democracies Fall and How we can Save Ours

BIG MONEY IN POLITICS   l   UNSCRUPULOUS MEDIA   l   AN UNREPRESENTATIVE ELECTORAL SYSTEM   l   A LACK OF ACCOUNTABILITY IN POLITICS   l   FOREIGN INTERFERENCE IN ELECTIONS

These are just some of the current threats to our democracy. While politicians point at small boats and scapegoat vulnerable people, what are they really distracting us from, and what are the real causes of the problems facing the UK today? 

Join Liberal Democrats Leicester for an evening of discussion with expert speakers on the threats to our democracy and the reforms needed to strengthen it.

Thomas Barlow is founder of The Independent Media Association and Strategic Director at Impress Media Services.  He provides business development consultancy for independent media and civil society organisations, while also leading sector-wide initiatives that strengthen the media ecosystem. His work includes developing collaborative platforms, advocating with policymakers, and engaging with major technology companies on behalf of the sector.

Tom Brake is the CEO of Unlock Democracy which campaigns for a written constitution for the UK, a proportional voting system, and accountability of government. He chairs the National Coalition for Proportional Representation, a coalition of 12 organisations campaigning for proportional representation.

Zuffar Haq MBE is Liberal Democrat Councillor for Evington Ward and Parliamentary candidate for Leicester East. He will share insights from his work on Leicester Council and give updates on the campaign plan for the upcoming council elections. 

Chaired by Hania Orszulik, Membership and Development Officer at Leicester Liberal Democrats.

Free on-street parking available on Yeoman Street and Charles Street.

This venue is wheelchair accessible.

Free tickets available online and on the door.

Email contact@leicesterlibdems.org.uk with any queries.

Join us for this insightful discussion that promises informed perspectives and real solutions to real problems.
