We did it! We are thrilled to share that we have won BOTH by-elections in Bridport and West Bay!

Congratulations to Paddy Mooney, your new Dorset Councillor for Bridport! Paddy has always shown up for the town and he is going to be an outstanding voice for all residents. Paddy looks forward to delivering for residents by getting more support for small businesses, better paid jobs and more affordable housing, so Bridport can remain “a strong and vibrant town with a positive future.”

A huge congratulations also to Neil Barnes, the wonderful new Bridport Town Councillor for West Bay ward. Neil is a familiar face in the community who we know will be a tireless champion for local people.

The late Councillor Dave Bolwell’s legacy lives on in the streets of Bridport.

Dave worked tirelessly to get East Street car park repaired and to get Dorset Council to invest in resurfacing both East and West Street. It is wonderful to see these works have been completed.

We are devastated by Councillor Dave Bolwell's passing on Friday 6th March following a short illness. Dave was a tireless campaigner for our community, and a cornerstone of our local party. He will be greatly missed by everyone at the West Dorset Liberal Democrats.

Edward Morello MP said, "I am incredibly sad about the passing of Dave. He was a brilliant and hard working councillor, and a tireless campaigner for the party. More than that he was generous, funny, and kind. I know he will be missed by all who knew him, and by residents of Bridport. My heart goes out to Bridget and the family. He will be sorely missed."

Wayne Bennett, Chair of West Dorset Liberal Democrats, said, “The loss of Dave is felt very deeply. He was an important figure in our local party and I know he will be missed by his fellow councillors and the many friends he made in Bridport. Our thoughts go out to his wife Bridget and his family at this difficult time."

The numbers speak for themselves.
