Jeremy has long been, and continues to be, opposed to the merger of emergency services in Staffordshire into regional forces.

Jeremy Lefroy has been campaigning against the Regional Merger's since they were proposed by the Labour Government.

Following recent news that the Staffordshire Ambulance Service, currently the top performing service in England, will not be merged into a Regional Service (for at least 2 years), Jeremy has expressed his delight, but also concern.

Jeremy is delighted to see the force saved from a merger, but has issued warnings that the campaign must not rest, as the force is not safe forever!

Cllr Lefroy has expressed similar concerns over the potential Police merger, and the news that this merger is now being rethought by the Home Secretary, John Reid.
