Welcome to the website of Ayrshire & Arran Liberal Democrats
We have members across the historic Scottish County of Ayrshire and the Isle of Arran and are particularly active in the North Ayrshire Council area.
In the Westminster General Election in 2005 we saw our vote rise in the four Ayrshire seats by around 7%
It is our intention to build on this increase by working hard for the people of our area and to strive to further advance the cause of Liberal Democracy here.
Thank you for visiting our website and please feel free to contact us with any comments or queries.

"Anyone who wants to pass laws in this country should pay this country's full taxes and not hide behind the special offshore status of non-doms. Non-doms have to tell the taxman that their first allegiance is to another country. No-one should be a British lawmaker whose first allegiance is not to Britain. "
Chris Huhne, Liberal Democrat Shadow Home Secretary

"I think people are entitled to expect a sensible, stable government at a time when the country is facing very, very acute choices. We take what the markets are worrying about immensely seriously. We will not take any risk with the creditworthiness of the economy. "
Nick Clegg, Leader of the Liberal Democrats
Financial Times - 3 March
