Strengthening leaseholder protections over charges and services: consultation
π£ The government is asking for feedback on reforms aimed at giving leaseholders of homes more transparency and control over service charges and quality of work.
These issues are raised frequently by constituents so do respond with your views by September 26th.

Really encouraging shift towards supporting voting reform. I am definitely part of the 60%.
Voter apathy is rife, and making every vote count and removing the need for tactical voting would surely help reverse that.

But the base line salary is within the National Living Wage for someone over the age of 20 which is pretty important to clarify.

The rhetoric coming from the PM this week fills me with sadness.
@amcarmichaelmp.bsky.social is spot on here. For a so-called 'progressive' party, Labour has this frighteningly wrong.

Graph from the Guardian predicting Labour switchers at the next GE
The government are wrong if they see yesterday's results as a further reason to shift right.
People are certainly disillusioned, and 2024 Labour voters are looking elsewhere - but mostly to the Greens or Lib Dems, not Reform.

Both my kids did #Bikeability through school and it was fantastic. Gave them confidence to understand the rules of the road and ride further afield.
