Richmond upon Thames London Borough Council

For the 2018 local elections, Liberal Democrats and Green candidates in Richmond upon Thames formed an arrangement where the two parties would field joint lists of two Liberal Democrats and one Green in some three member wards.^[6] This was repeated in the 2022 elections.^[7]

General elections 2017 and 2019

In the 2017 general election,^[8] the Liberal Democrats and Green Party refrained from standing candidates against each other for certain constituencies in Brighton^[9] and Oxford.^[10] Such informal arrangements ensured the successful re-election of the only Green MP Caroline Lucas for Brighton Pavilion and resulted in the Liberal Democrats regaining Oxford West and Abingdon as Layla Moran was elected there.

During the 2019 general election, this was extended to more constituencies, as part of the Unite to Remain campaign in order to boost each other's chances of winning those seats.^[11][12]

Oxfordshire County Council

Liberal Democrat and Green councilors elected to Oxfordshire County Council following the local elections in May 2021, formed a joint group prior to negotiations to form a coalition administration also including the Labour Party.^[13] These councillors sit in a grouping formally known as the Liberal Democrat Green Alliance.^[14] The leader of this group, and of the council, is Liz Leffman.^[15]

Wealden District Council

Following the 2023 local elections, Wealden District Council came under no overall control with the Liberal Democrats holding 13 seats and the Green Party holding 11. The two agreed to form a co-operative alliance in which the position of council leader will rotate between the leaders of both party groups on an annual basis.^[16][17]

Liberal Democrat policy

The Liberal Democrats are officially opposed to alliances, with senior party figures preferring a non-aggression pact with Labour over unilaterally standing down.^[18]
