This wasn’t pitch rolling, it was pointless. The Budget will be a bitter pill to swallow as the Government seems to have run out of excuses.

We can’t keep punishing households, high streets and hospices whilst big banks and social media giants don't pay their fair share.

"I would argue very strongly that the Conservatives and Nigel Farage, the champions of Brexit, caused the small boat crisis themselves.

"It's about time that we held them to account for that."

So it comes down to us. Or Nigel Farage.

Liberal Democrat change – true to British values. Transforming our economy, our public services and our politics. The real change people crave.

Or Farage’s change. Change away from the country we love. Change towards Trump’s America.

It should be simple: people who cheer on violence in the UK can't enrich themselves with British taxpayers’ money.

That means Elon Musk – no government contracts for you, no energy supply license for you.

Save Lavender Hill Police Station Front Counter - Wandsworth Liberal Democrats The Met Police plans to shut Lavender Hill’s front counter, leaving Battersea without local face-to-face support. Join us to keep it open.

I have used this precious local service on a number of occasions, and cannot believe we will now have to go to another borough to speak to the police face to face! Please share! #lavenderhillpolice #londonmetclosure #wandsworth

Save Our Parks: Lib Dems launch petition on Council’s Events Policy Wandsworth’s parks are at risk β€” and the Council isn’t being clear. New rules could bring more commercial events, more disruption, and less public access β€” without proper consultation.

Save Our Parks – Demand Transparency on Wandsworth’s Events Policy - Wandsworth Liberal Democrats Wandsworth’s new parks policy could mean more noise, more disruption, and less access β€” all without a clear plan or proper public say.

Wandsworth Council is modifying its policy for how events are run in our parks and green spaces.

The deadline is next Monday.
There’s no public meeting and the documentation is unclear.

Sign our petition to demand transparency and real public input:

Great article from @rbreich.bsky.social. During his campaign Trump chillingly said something along the lines of 'Vote for me now; then you won't have to vote again.'
The silence of the opposition is deafening, and if they do not react now there may not be another time.

If you've got elections today, vote Liberal Democrat. Vote for local champions who'll listen, stand up for your community, and get things done.

I hope the rumour the UK government is considering cutting the Digital Services Tax for US corporations proves incorrect. πŸ™

We should not reward the mega-companies that facilitate the corrosion of democracy.

Lowering that tax now would amount to appeasement.

In the 1900s, Liberals launched a brilliant fightback, associating tariffs with higher prices, political corruption, lining the pockets of the rich and a menace to world peace.

Can the Democrats match that today?

We did it!

The CHAC agreed to rethink rather than proceed with changes that would have weakened the protection of our historic buildings, parks, and conservation areas.

Our heritage is ours to protect. Let's keep doing so together!

Thank you to everyone who signed/shared the petition.
