Well done to Geri Sayers and the team for achieving a solid second place here.
Proud to have spoken on the Lib Dem budget amendment, which sought to be preemptive to residents needs, not reactive. Surprise, surprise the Tory’s are happy to bury their heads in the sand and voted it down.
Proud to second the Lib Dem budget amendment at NCC:
* An extra £1m on AI projects to prevent falls & cardiovascular disease
* £500k back into homelessness & housing support
* £500k into 50 road safety projects.
All proposals to improve lives and save money. Norfolk wins
If you don’t like what Trump is doing in America don’t let Nigel Farage do it here - take action - join the Liberal Democrats today: https://t.co/ZdsnDQRI0G
The Chancellor should cancel her visit to China, and instead give an emergency statement setting out how she’ll grow the UK economy, including by scrapping the government’s damaging jobs tax.
With the £ falling and borrowing costs soaring, this should be the priority.

💯 days as MP for North Norfolk!
The election feels like a lifetime ago, but what a fantastic 100 days it's been.
We've made progress on vital issues like sewage and rural health, as well as handling over 1,000 pieces of casework.
Thank you again for putting your faith in me 🙏
It is time for Parliament to stand up and take action on the sewage crisis after years of failure under the Conservatives.
Liberal Democrats have today tabled an amendment to Labour’s Water Bill, to outlaw bonuses for Water company bosses. This disgraced industry has shown it is not worthy of any bonuses, while they fail customers and continue to dump sewage in our water ways.
The proposed increase in parking charges is a modest amount compared to the overall budget gap. I have concerns about the impact on residents and businesses, especially like #Norwich, #King’sLynn, & #GreatYarmouth, where parking costs have risen this year. #Norfolk#Parking
Cutting payments to vulnerable pensioners in North Norfolk isn't the way to balance our country's books 😡
Winter is fast approaching, & energy bills are eye-wateringly high ❄️ 📈 😓
That's why I voted against the govt's cruel winter fuel payment cuts this week.
Hatred will never divide us - great article by Cllr @DavidSayers83 in @TheLynnNews Racism and Islamophobia have no place in our society. We must work together to consign this hatred to the history books & we are proud of what #LibDems are already doing to make this a reality. 🫂
Appalled that Tories shut down debate on plans to reduce minimum income guarantee at today's NCC meeting. Democracy was silenced. Despite strong opposition from public, they seem set to press ahead with move. This is just plain wrong and a slap in the face for vulnerable people.
Reminds me of this quote: An ignorant person is inclined to blame others for their own misfortune. To blame oneself is proof of progress. But the wise person never has to blame another or their self.
Former South West Norfolk MP Liz Truss has blamed Rishi Sunak's decision to "trash my reputation" as a reason for the major general election defeat. https://t.co/okSq1aZ8Bt 👇 Full story
As anyone who's emailed me in the last week might have guessed, I need people to help in my new MP's office!
