Gateshead Liberal Democrats
The voice of the people
Your Liberal Democrats
A Lib Dem Council would empower residents to have a real say over issues that matter. In the meantime we speak up for people who all too often feel let down. Gateshead charges the highest levels of Council Tax for band D properties of any metropolitan borough in the country but residents feel that it is out of touch and unresponsive. That has to change!
Councillor Ron Beadle
Our team of 18 Councillors represent seven wards across Gateshead. We actively campaign across the borough, and we gained a new Councillor in each of the last three elections. We have been the only Opposition to Labour on the Council since 1996.
Currently we represent:
- Birtley
- Dunston Hill and Whickham East
- Low Fell
- Pelaw, Heworth and Bill Quay
- Saltwell
- Whickham North and Swalwell
- Whickham South and Sunniside
Our new website includes information to help you get involved in community issues and access useful services such as letting us know what is important to you, how the Councillors can support and updates about what we are doing for you!
Connect with a Councillor via the 'Our Team' page.

Standing up for consumers
For many people, Buy Now Pay Later is a useful and convenient solution, offering them flexibility with their purchases. But consumers need stronger protections.
