"There seems to be no point at all voting Labour here if you have not got the guts to stand up to your national colleagues and stop this erosion of our hard fought local plan and the handover of control to developers." Cllr Katie Porrer on her motion at Cambridge Council. @cambridgelds.bsky.social

Cambridge Labour set a dangerous precedent at recent Full Council meetings - abusing their majority to shut down debate on motions, for the only reason that they didn't like them. Those are the methods of Trump and Musk. Cambridge deserves better. @cambridgelds.bsky.social #DemocracyMatters

Elon Musk has shown his hand. If politicians like me won’t curb his malign powers, who will? | Ed Davey It’s the job of democracies around the world to stand strong together and hold oligarchs and their platforms to account, says Liberal Democrat leader Ed Davey

Elon Musk is powerful, dangerous and an incredible bore - we’re going to have to hold him and the other tech bros to account because Donald Trump certainly won’t.

Cllr Olaf Hauk speaking at a City Council meeting in objection to Labour's plan.

Cambridge Lib Dem Cllr Olaf Hauk led the opposition at the City Council to Labour's plan to send Cambridge's recycling waste to Northern Ireland - without even investigating the Carbon Footpront of their plan.

Nadya, David and Olaf enjoyed the beautiful sunshine and lovely people on the streets of #Trumpington Meadows today. @cambridgelds.bsky.social

Spent today admiring the incredible work of Burwell Print Centre with Charlotte Cane.

This fantastic organisation is providing adults with additional needs the chance to gain skills, confidence, and opportunities. Loved every minute of it.

MPs have backed Sarah Olney’s bill on proportional representation. This is a historic moment in the campaign for a fairer voting system.



Today, as we have done for a century, Liberal Democrats are leading the fight for fair votes and making sure that no one can be ignored in our democracy.

We could not be prouder of our newly elected LDER President, Sarah Olney MP - who today moved a Private Members Bill for #ProportionalRepresentation in Parliament.

And we could not be more delighted by the support across parties that helped it PASS!

Woohoo! 🎉🎉🎉

Ragout style graphic. The top image is of a woman swimming in open water. The bottom half is a newspaper clipping from the Guardian with the headline "Record number of English bathing sites classified as having poor water quality"

Nobody should be scared to swim in their local bathing spots for fear of getting ill from sewage.

It's time to abolish Ofwat and bring in a real regulator with real teeth to clamp down on this disgraced industry.
