Shouldn’t @libdems.org.uk stop using the platform? It would be a good place to start.

With Labour and the Conservatives both having let people down and failed to deliver the change our country needs, it comes down to the Liberal Democrats or Nigel Farage. Two visions for the future that couldn’t be more different.

The media - no, we're not going to report on serious Lib Dem policies

The media - yes, we will report on fun stunts

The media, also - the Lib Dems need to show they've got serious policies

This'll be very telling when he comes to speak. If Farage uses his appearance in front of that committee to encourage a foreign state to bully his own country, he'll have crossed a very specific line.

Politico: "The Sun has seen evidence to [a US] committee submitted by Nigel Farage in which he suggests the White House should use “diplomacy and trade” in the free speech battle, which sounds like calling for Britain to be bullied into a law change."

Is Farage calling for sanctions AGAINST the UK?

You are talking about Kinship Carers. They look after children who would otherwise end up in care. They don’t get the support that foster or adoptive parents get.

Out and about with Cllr Tony Paterson and Cllr McNulty-Howard and officer Raphael Younger in The Terrace, Barnes yesterday, sharing our ideas for a 'Pedestrian Improvement Pilot'.
The Terrace is in MBC but on the border with Barnes Ward.
Good inter-Ward collaboration and Hector came too 🐶
