WELCOME TO MERTON LIBERAL DEMOCRATS

Merton Liberal DemocratsMerton Liberal Democrats are the party organisation for the area covering the whole of Merton Council and the parliamentary constituencies of Wimbledon and Mitcham & Morden.

We aim to create a fair and open society, where individual liberties and the rights of minorities are guaranteed. Government, bureaucracy and big business often takes control away from people.
We believe people should have as much control over their own lives as possible.

Locally we seek to protect future generations, and work towards openness and transparency in decision-making.
