Glory to A̶r̶s̶t̶o̶t̶z̶k̶a̶!̶ America?

🚨BREAKING🚨

MPs have voted to PASS our bill to establish a UK-EU customs union.

The Prime Minister must now listen to his own MPs, drop his self-imposed red lines and finally go for proper growth through an ambitious trade deal with the EU.

It’s time to chainsaw the Brexit red tape and end the cost of living crisis. Labour MPs should back our plan for a new customs union.

We need to cut red tape, cut the cost of living and turbocharge our trade with Europe.

@LibDems Bill to establish a UK-EU customs union PASSED

Fix Britain's Trade Liberal Democrats want to turbocharge our economy by forming a Customs Union with the EU, tearing down the trade barriers and red tape holding us back.

A customs union to cut the red tape & cut the cost of living, overlaid on images of an import dock, a stack of paperwork and a pile of UK £5 notes.

A customs union is the best way turbocharge our economy and tackle the cost of living.

Those MPs who agree with us should vote to back our bill on a customs union tomorrow.

The silent majority of British people are crying out for politicians to come up with practical solutions on immigration.

That means recruiting more caseworkers, getting the backlog down, letting asylum seekers work and pay their way and creating safe and legal routes for refugees.

Another successful #Motion passed at this week’s December Full #Council meeting: Birmingham #LibDems succeed in making the Council to commit to tackle #Birmingham’ s planning enforcement crisis.

“When will Acocks Green Library be repaired and reopened?” - Question asked by Roger Harmer, Leader of the Birmingham Liberal Democrats and the Labour-led Council, again,sadly failing to provide a proper answer.
#Birmingham needs a truly positive, competent change that only #LibDems can deliver 🔶

Let’s be honest about the damage that Brexit has done. There is a £90bn hit to treasury income every year as a result of the Brexit deal. In the OBR papers, they say disposable income for families is going to go down and that the effects of Brexit outweigh and wipe out any of the benefits of all of the government’s new trade deals combined. Brexit has been a disaster for our country, it has been a disaster for our economy.- Daisy Cooper, Deputy Leader of the Liberal Democrats.

It’s time to admit what a disaster Brexit has been.

Liberal Democrats have a plan to fix our trade with Europe to turbocharge the economy, fix the cost of living crisis and properly fund our public services.

#Birmingham businesses need to not just survive but thrive. For the #May2026 #Council elections Birmingham #LibDems are prepared to bring the change so urgently needed. We need more competent councillors and councillors who truly care about helping communities 🔶

As Islamophobia Awareness Month ends, the rise in anti-Muslim hate remains impossible to ignore.

Together, we must call it out and build the inclusive Britain we all need and deserve.

IMAGE: HELEN MORGAN MP TEXT: This is a Trump shakedown of the NHS, and cannot go ahead. RFK Jr has put it in black and white: Trump demanded these pay rises to put Americans first, and our government rolled over. Patients stuck on crammed hospital corridors, or unable to get an ambulance, won’t forget it. The British people didn’t vote for this. The government must put the agreement to a vote in Parliament.

This is a Trump shakedown of the NHS that nobody voted for.

The government will divert billions of pounds away from frontline NHS services- all on the whim of a foreign president

They must put the deal to a vote in Parliament.

The Chancellor's chosen to copy the Conservatives with a stealth tax.

You can't tax your way to growth.

Young people are feeling hopeless because escaping debt and achieving basic goals like owning a home seem like impossible dreams.

Labour have shot their ambition and the ambition of working people with their stealth tax rises in this budget.

Many thanks to incredibly inspiring, hardworking #Worcestershire Councillor Sam Ammar for joining us today during our #LibDem Group Meeting. Fantastic discussion & encouraging lessons learned on many of the opportunities ahead of us for #Birmingham #May26 elections and beyond 🔶

Rachel Reeves admits Brexit has damaged the economy but won’t take the steps needed to fix it.

Do you want to know why Birmingham City Council is bankrupt? Chambers have made an excellent documentary on the subject which you can see on YouTube (linked here). I was more than happy to take part and help tell the story.
