Good to see my campaign to sell unused public sites for community benefit and affordable homes being picked up on the Labour backbenches. I hope the Minister will take note of the new cross-party support and be bold enough to tackle the crisis in housing across London!

I wish I was surprised. Buried in this Budget is a plan to slash the Digital Services Tax, giving a multi-billion tax cut to US tech giants and the likes of Elon Musk. That's right, cutting taxes for the world's richest man while hiking them for millions of hard-working Brits.

This is especially galling coming on the heels of COP 30, where @Ed_Miliband UK is committed to going “all in” to tackle the climate crisis. Yet @HeathrowAirport is the UK’s single biggest polluter & both @theCCCuk & @CommonsEAC say a third runway puts UK climate goals at risk.

The Government’s ‘Fair’ Funding review is a significant threat to Richmond Council’s finances and could put at risk the services we provide to residents. We will explore all options to protect our residents, and if that includes legal avenues so be it https://t.co/gBfv1VbWea

A great night in Surrey as @LibDems win SIX seats in SURREY by-elections. The Blue Wall continues to crumble! And latest attempts by the Conservatives to cancel local elections again next year shows how scared they are of losing all Surrey. 💪🔶

The Lib Dems also won three borough and district council ward by-elections in the county.

Great to have supported Purple Elephant’s new patron! Another great run in the borough this morning was the #HamtonCourt10K- fortunately no clash at Kingston Bridge …
Thank you to all those who sponsored me for the @cabbage_10. Finished in 1:41 and raised over £1k for brilliant local children's mental health charity, Purple Elephant. It's not too late to give! https://t.co/bAu3oi3jU3 Thanks also to all who organise & volunteer at the race!
