Birthday Honours – congratulations!

Huge congratulations to Chris White, a former member of the Lib Dem Voice team, who has been awarded an OBE. The citation reads: “Lately Member and Leader, St Albans City and District Council. For services to Local Government”.

Chris stepped down earlier this year having led the Lib Dem administration since 2019. He also served on Hertfordshire County Council for nearly 30 years.

Thanks to a reader who has told us that Janet Goldsbrough-Jones in Worthing has been awarded an MBE “for services to the community”. Janet is a long term Lib Dem activist and council candidate in Worthing, who is very active in the community. Congratulations to her too.

That’s all we have found so far, but we have probably not spotted other people that we should mention. Please email us on [email protected] and we will add them to this post.
