This month marks an amazing milestone in Southport's political history. In May 1963 a young Ronnie Fearn was first elected as a councillor on what was then the Southport County Borough Council. In those days the Liberals ran the council.
Ronnie Fearn has served Southport continuously as a
councillor ever since. He has been Leader of the Group, Member of Parliament
(twice), and he is now a member of the House of Lords.

Southport Liberal Democrats held a celebration at the Auberge
Brasserie in Southport. The picture shows Ronnie and Joyce having received a
cut glass rose bowl in recognition of his service.
Cllr Iain Brodie Browne, Leader of the Liberal Democrats on
Sefton Council, said "By any measure Ronnie Fearn is the most successful
Southport politician of his generation. He is well known as a champion of the
town"
Meols Ward Liberal Democrats send our heartiest congratulations
to Ronnie and all his team.
