A great evening at City Hall at a Meet the Councillors event with Lib Dem colleagues. Interesting presentations, lots of great questions in the Council Chamber, and a chance to try on the Lord Mayoral robes in the Parlour. Hopefully there were a few future councillors in the audience tonight!

Only 10% of bike thefts in Bristol were solved last year.

The @LibDems have a plan to fix our broken relationship with the EU with a new UK-EU Customs Union and eventually rejoining the Single Market.
Please help us apply pressure on a reluctant Labour government by signing and sharing our petition.
