Southwark Labour are London’s worst landlord. Families priced out, crime rising, fly-tipping everywhere. Next May we can change it. Please use your vote for a cleaner, greener, safer Southwark. Only the @swklibdems are standing up for residents. #Southwark #LibDems #TimeForChange
Independent Housing Watchdog vindicates what @swklibdems and residents have been saying for years - Southwark Labour is London's Worst Landlord The Labour leadership's positions are clearly no longer tenable, and there must be accountability https://t.co/xOsKeZeSI3

Individual freedom and the rule of law are at the heart of liberalism. @LibDems want to empower people and communities so they have more control over the issues that affect their lives. #LiberalValues

Rejoining Erasmus is a real opportunity to start repairing the disastrous Conservative Brexit deal. We are pleased the government has finally listened to us on that. However it must be a first step on a clear roadmap to a closer relationship with Europe. Starting with

No words. Well done to Efra Chair Alistair Carmichael for giving Starmer four mins of hell at the Liaison Committee and standing up for British farming on IHT. He had a chance to back us. We have an uncaring, mechanical and heartless PM who doesn’t listen to his own Labour MPs

Alistair Carmichael lists all the majority-Labour select committees against the family farms tax: "Why do you not listen to your own party colleagues?" Starmer: "I do listen to party colleagues all the time." Carmichael: "And then do what you're going to do anyway."

When you've got victims waiting years and cases listed for 2030, that's not a backlog it's a crisis. Justice delayed is justice denied. But it's not just our courts that we need to fix - it's changes across the board to prevent crime and rehabilitate offenders. #politicslondon

Too many people are stuck in hospital because there isn't the social care they need. Our plan for a dedicated winter discharge unit would get thousands out of hospital and home in time for Christmas. @AlisonEBennett
