	"description": "Now it&#x27;s our libraries that KCC&#x27;s Conservatives are threatening to close branch libraries. We must stop that!!! Alongside the main library in Maidstone, there are branch libraries in: Allington Bearsted Headcorn Lenham Marden Shepway Yalding Conservative Councillor Peter Oakford (Deputy Leader of KCC): &quot;Kent has far too many libraries&quot; and &quot;we will bring a proposal forward sometime this year to see where libraries can be sold off&quot; See item 9 here https://kent.public-i.tv/core/portal/webcast_interactive/838906 The Conservative Cabinet member then said that they can be sold to parish councils to run but of course there will be no funding from KCC, i.e. they will close. Libraries are essential services, they are community centres, they should be thriving assets. We must not lose these seven libraries across our Borough. We must send a clear message to KCC&#x27;s Conservatives that we will not accept their closure.",
