Graphic with text "Lib Dems Winning: Liberal Democrats take poll lead in the South". Below a bar chart shows the result of a recent Yougov poll in the South of England and changes from the previous poll: Lib Dems 25%, +5; Conservatives 23%, -3; Reform UK 22 %, -3; Labour 18, =.

A new YouGov poll out today has us leading in the South of England.

Millions of people want a strong anti-Trump, anti-Farage party that works everyday for their communities.

Would be fantastic to see a Lib Dem Metro Mayor for the first time. Would be even better it being Mike Ross!

Today Liberal Democrat Peers in the House of Lords will table a fatal motion, to reinstate the delayed local elections. If passed, millions of people would get their votes back.



The Conservatives must back our plan and end their disgraceful stitch up with Labour.

Had a fantastic time at this spring’s Liberal Democrat conference. Always amazing to know how many brilliant and lovely people we have in our party and in parliament and to be able to actually discuss policy with MPs. Highlight was certainly the Thunderbird Clive Jones!

Will be door knocking in Garretts Green for the first time on friday evening. More than happy to spend time talking to residents about their concerns and will be passing on casework!

that’s less than half of her daily pay, why is she that incredibly petty?

i know she needs them to do her job well however it’s incredibly petty for someone earning ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY THOUSAND a year to claim Β£371 for newspapers as expenses

50 years ago was the darkest day in the history of birmingham, when 21 people were killed by two IRA bombs in city centre pubs. 50 years later there is still no justice for the victims, and likely will never be. The city will never forget the lives of those 21 people. JFT21.

Would love if we could have planning like this for the west midlands, even our most developed proposal doesn’t really have a chosen route!

Increasingly those who backed the Conservatives previously are astonished at the extremes to which it has lurched.

They are looking for a new home, and they are finding it with the Liberal Democrats.

We overtook the Scottish Tories at the General Election, let’s do it at Holyrood too.

Important to note this week is road safety week - and these are stories us brummies are all too familiar with. We need safer streets, tragedy on our roads is far too commonplace.

i don’t think dems realise the path to power now involves looking at lib dem policies and translating them best as possible. being a socially liberal party which panders to farmers is a really good strategy when 20% of the senate is farming states

fairly consistently polling at our strongest in 5 years right now, the GE really revitalised the lib dems. people still might not think of us as serious but at least they think of us now. we exist!
