Party bosses said the move followed what it called "a prolonged period of concerns".
Reform must lift ban on Derbyshire's local democracy reporter.![]()
Derbyshire Dales Liberal Democrats have condemned Reform-led Derbyshire County Council's decision to "end engagement" with Local Democracy Reporter Eddie Bisknell, and demanded it be reversed immediately.![]()
![]()
Cllr Sue Burfoot, the Lib Dem councillor for Matlock who supported the resident in her case against the council, said:![]()
"This ban came straight after Eddie reported how the council blocked an 81-year-old Matlock resident's route out of her home. A tribunal judge found in her favour and criticised the council's handling of the dispute. The council should have learned from that case, not gone after the reporter who told it. So much for Reform claiming to believe in a free press!"![]()

Barry Holliday, Liberal Democrat prospective parliamentary candidate for Derbyshire Dales, added:![]()
"Local Democracy Reporters are funded by the BBC so that councils like ours are properly scrutinised. Eddie's reporting reaches residents through Derbyshire Live, the BBC and the Derbyshire Times. Refusing to answer his questions means the council is refusing to answer to residents across the county.![]()
"If a council bans a reporter who wrote about its mistakes, residents are entitled to ask what else it doesn't want them to see. After all, a council confident in its decisions has nothing to fear from a reporter's questions.![]()
"If the council thinks a story is wrong, the proper route is a formal complaint to the editor. Derbyshire Live's editor says she hasn't received one.![]()
"I call on Reform's Cllr Reed and council leader Alan Graves to lift this ban. Dales residents deserve a council that answers their questions, whoever asks them”
