Every water company chief exec should give up their bonuses until filthy sewage dumping are brought to an end. It is an insult that families are being asked to pay more in bills to clean up the water companies' own mess.

After 15 years leading Portsmouth City Council and 19 years leading the Lib Dems here I am stepping down. We had a great election a week ago and the ambitious and effective Lib Dem team will carry on the work. @LibDems

Every year I get an email from an ex patient I treated more than 20 years ago for addiction. He tells me about his life, family and successes. He thanks me for his abstinence (he did all the work, not me). This is why I love my job as a GP.

A decision that significantly contributed to our Outstanding rating in the area, @DorsetCouncilUK
Delighted that @DimensionsUK are supporting our fair pay policy for the care sector. "Dorset increased the rate they pay providers to a level that facilitated competitive levels of pay in the local jobs market." For the full story - https://t.co/rBjfVybTc0

Just in case anyone needs to hear it - there is a difference between being personally committed to not having an abortion yourself and seeking to inflict your personal beliefs on millions of women through the criminal law. One is conscience. One is cruelty. #SNPLeadership

I am so pleased that my Bill has passed its third reading today. This is a momentous step towards the culture change needed to protect individuals from harassment in the workplace. @libdems.

Driving down a dark B road outside Hexham tonight, we came across a group of sheep all kneeling down on the verge. I couldn't help but recite Thomas Hardy to my sister, who was more bemused than anything. But still, we need a little hope for next year. Merry Christmas. πππ

Seconday care staff. Did you know that anyone with an https://t.co/Gx5sc2vjAA email can use @Accurx to send texts to patients? I use it all the time to send patient information leaflets and links to videos and support groups, especially when doing phone clinics.
