“The fact is Liberal Democrat Councils put council tax up more than other parties do”

Fact: Lib Dem Councils cost you more.

In Merton, if you want low council tax and better services vote Labour on 7 May 🗳️

🚨 5 key changes for tenants from 1st May 2026 🏠

The new Renters' Rights Act means:

1. Landlords can no longer evict tenants through no-fault evictions - they need a valid reason.

No more bidding wars - landlords can’t ask for more than the advertised rent price.

Landlords can only ask for a maximum of one month’s rent upfront.

Landlords can’t just say no to pets - they must consider requests reasonably.

No more fixed-term tenancy contracts. Rolling contracts will give more flexibility.

With the lords up early today I went out to support @MertonLabour candidates in Ravensbury ward for the elections on May 7 th - I’ve known one candidate for 50 years ! - a long history of labour campaigning together continued today @LondonLabour

[Cllr Sebastian Budner @SebastianWandle]

There are many renters in my area, including in the blocks where I live - I was a renter myself.

These new protections will be a huge weight off many shoulders, giving people more security in the homes they live in.

5/5

The choice locally is simple:

👉 Lower bills and responsible finances with Labour
👉 Or higher costs under the Lib Dems

Because of the financial decisions we’ve taken, we’ve been able to spend more on what matters to residents.
