Thames Water recycled sewage proposals at Teddington and bathing water designation are simply incompatible. It's time for Government to stop the TDRA and focus on cleaning up our river!
This Chancellor, and this Government have lost all credibility - we cannot risk Heathrow expansion becoming another HS2, spiralling costs, half-cancelled after 10 years - the costs are too high.
Amazing news!!! Ham & Kingston is the first-ever official bathing water site on the River Thames in London. Massive thanks to the tireless work of local campaigners who made this happen!
Heathrow expansion will cost £49 billion, and that’s being conservative. Gov’t refuses to admit that taxpayers will be forced to foot the bill - I called for transparency and accountability!
Watch Munira Wilson(LibDem MP) school Matt Goodwin(Reform) on what councils can & can't do:
"You can't influence immigration running a council... these councils don't need a foreign policy, people want their potholes fixed.."
"It's just great to see steady, grown-up, thoughtful politics" - former Tory minister @SayeedaWarsi

The special educational needs and disabilities system needs reform, but any change must have children at its heart, not a Treasury drive for savings by removing rights in a vacuum. The Govt must put an end to rumours and come clean with families about its plans.
Proud to join @childrensociety@Oasis_UK@unicef_uk in listening to young people about their experiences and calling on the Government to invest in childhood for a brighter future. Far too many children in the UK are growing up in poverty, denied the opportunity to thrive.
Dodging the rain showers to talk to voters in Bushey with our fabulous candidate for County Council, Cllr Christopher Shenton. Lots of good feedback about Bushey Country Club, and Chris saving Kemp Place car park from closing. #happyvibes#LibDems@HertsmereLD
Absolutely delighted that the Government has confirmed this vital fund will continue, but I should NOT have had to drag ministers kicking and screaming to the House of Commons to do so, the day AFTER it expired. Families must not be put in this position again next year.
Very disappointing that the Prime Minister refused to confirm whether vulnerable children and their carers will continue to get the support they need through the Adoption & Special Guardianship Support Fund, which is due to end next week.
It’s so disappointing to see this Government risk losing its moral compass. Pupils can’t learn on empty stomachs and we need to be doing everything in our power to ensure that we give children the best opportunities to succeed in school.
After 9/11, NATO's Article 5 was invoked for the first (and only) time ever by the United States.
Troops from the UK, Canada, Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Denmark, Australia, Spain, Poland, Norway, Romania, Turkey, New Zealand, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Ukraine, Finland, and many others joined the fight in Afghanistan.
More than one thousand of these soldiers paid the ultimate price.
JD Vance - Have you said 'thank you' once for their sacrifice?
The legal limits on nitrogen dioxide levels have been breached for years in the area surrounding Heathrow. A third runway will only exacerbate the damaging impacts of pollution on the environment and our local communities.
Too many children who are eligible for #freeschoolmeals are missing out, including from some of the poorest families in our communities. I asked Ministers to support @LibDems calls to automatically enrol ALL eligible children.
A disastrous decision for our planet and our local communities who will be blighted by more noise and air pollution. The economic case is flimsy and the costs will be astronomical. If the Chancellor wants growth, she should cut red tape with the EU and reverse her jobs tax.
