Lib Dem leader defends parish council consultation

Birmingham Mail

November 28, 2025

DUDLEY'S Liberal Democrat leader insisted despite an overwhelming rejection it was right to ask Cradley people if they wanted a parish council.

Cllr Ryan Priest was a keen supporter of the idea and, during discussion on this years’ budget, persuaded Dudley's ruling Conservative group to set aside up to £75,000 for a feasibility study. The survey, which eventually cost council tax payers £8,000, attracted 1,269 responses with 82.6 percent saying no to the idea.
