Liberal Democrats have re-affirmed their opposition to fracking!

The North West regional conference, held recently in Manchester, passed a motion condemning the industry for drilling into the Bowland Shale, which is rich in toxic heavy metals.  Liberal democrats will oppose the exploration and development licenses, which are due to be renewed in many areas of Manchester, Cheshire and Lancashire over the next few  weeks.
