Our Local Party

We’re fighting for our area all year round - not just election time.

The Huntingdon Liberal Democrats are the local party for the whole of Huntingdon constituency and some parts of the North West Cambridgeshire constituency - reaching from Yaxley to the Offords, and including the market towns of Huntingdon and St Ives.

We have a brilliant team of councillors and campaigners fighting for their local areas - on local issues like road maintenance and social housing, and wider issues like the environment, social care, and wider liberal values.

Huntingdon Political History

Huntingdon's most famous MP was Oliver Cromwell. Between 1983 and 2001 John Major was MP, serving as Foreign Secretary, Chancellor of the Exchequer and Prime Minister 1990-1997. In 1992 John Major achieved 66% of the vote, but things have been changing. Following the elections to the European Parliament in 2019 Liberal Democrats were polling over 20% and in that year's General Election we achieved a near-doubling of our vote for the Huntingdon parliamentary seat.

In the 2024 General Election, we managed to win the new neighbouring constituency of St Neots and Mid Cambridgeshire - marking the first time that anywhere in the historic county of Huntingdonshire has been represented by a Liberal Democrat Member of Parliament.
