10:10 is a new all party campaign supported by the Liberal Democrats and launched this month to reduce the UK's domestic greenhouse gas emissions by 10% during 2010.

Robin Lawrence, Liberal Democrat candidate for Wolverhampton South West, has called for the Government to award big pay rises to military personnel many of whom are risking their lives on the Afghanistan front line. He is backing new Liberal Democrat policy to give the worst paid servicemen and women, who earn less than trainee police officers and fire fighters, pay rises worth almost £6,000 a year.
