Mark Wilson

I am honoured to have been selected as the Lib Dem candidate for Mayor of Sussex.

I want to win with unity, not division, promoting a prosperous and green future for our county.

Many people have lost all faith in politics, it's time we restored some hope.

Lib Dems stand for giving everyone better access to nature and the outdoors.

As Mayor of Sussex, I will put the environment at the heart of decision-making, benefiting all our health and well-being.

Hostage… prisoner… ?

Why the difference between a hostage and a prisoner?

We all know Brexit’s to blame for the crisis facing UK steel – it’s time for politicians to be honest and reverse it | Simon Jenkins With British industry faltering, the excuse that the public wants this is risible. Parliament must force Starmer to act, says Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins

✊ "The public is clearly ready to see Brexit reversed. There cannot be a single industry that would oppose it."

➡️ "This should not be a partisan matter, except insofar as it might isolate Farage’s Reform party – and be his undoing."

This strikes me as a pretty major Brexit shift from Starmer.

Perhaps the beginning of 'Brexit is sh1t and has caused real economic damage'.

Boris Johnson breached rules designed to stop abuse of contacts made in public office, watchdog finds Johnson found to have breached rules after refusing to answer specific questions about allegations published by the Guardian Boris Johnson breached rules designed to stop the abuse of contacts and access made in public office, an ethics watchdog has found. Last month the Guardian published revelations about Johnson’s conduct since leaving office. The Boris Files, a trove of documents from the former prime minister’s private office seen by the Guardian, suggested he repeatedly broke rules forbidding him from exploiting contacts made in office for private gain.

My message to the millions of One Nation conservatives who reject the divisive politics of Badenoch and Farage is this:

Come and join us. Help us save our country. Come and win with us.

After a lifetime supporting Labour I joined the Lib Dems, I still like and respect many in Labour, I love one, my wife! But I became increasingly frustrated with the top down management of Labour. I want an evidence based, non dogmatic, non vested interests, compassionate politics. Join us.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Here I am in 2020 in the flimsiest, most pitful PPE - like so many other NHS staff, some of whom died from the Covid they caught in their hospitals.

Tory peer Michelle Mone - who today lost her legal case & must repay the govt £122m - dares to claim she’s been ‘scapegoated’.

What, Michelle? 🧵

People often claim it's a mistake to call far-right figures racist. But it's extremely telling how much they hate being called racist. Farage doesn't welcome it. He is afraid of it. And he has benefited from people's reticence about using it to describe his policies.

Promotion of Self-harm, grooming and sexual exploitation is all happening on Elon Musk’s watch.

He must be held criminally liable.

TEXT: BBC NEWS Don't let Farage turn UK into Trump's America, says Ed Davey. Davey tells the conference the Lib Dems offer a different change compared to the one offered by Reform UK and Nigel Farage.

Imagine the Trump-inspired country Farage wants for Britain. No NHS, huge insurance bills, people denied care.

That’s Trump’s America. Don’t let it become Farage’s Britain.

The truth is when you look at Elon Musk you've got to follow the money.

He doesn’t care about the British people or our country.

Gambling addiction is a public health issue.

@MaxWilkinson.bsky.social explains why the Lib Dems are leading calls to protect people, families, and our high streets from gambling addition.

Freedom From Harm - Gambling as a Public Health Issue Liberal Democrats have passed bold new policy to put public health at the heart of gambling regulation. These reforms would save lives, raise hundreds of millions for NHS treatment, and finally hold…

This is about safeguarding families, strengthening communities, and tackling addiction at its root.
