Wanstead Lib Dems

The only party in Wanstead campaigning to bring London together. We believe in better public services, working with our EU allies and democratic oversight.

The tragic death of Henry Nowak should not be used to sow division.

Instead of condemning comments made by US politicians, Zia Yusuf chose to attack the BBC.

Britain needs leaders who stand up to division, not fuel it.

Congratulations @rogerbhx and @brumlibdems 🔶👏👏👏

[Ed Davey @EdwardJDavey]

We all need to resist attempts like this to politicise Henry Nowak’s death and divide our country - whether they come from MAGA politicians like Vance or their cronies here in the UK.

[Ed Davey @EdwardJDavey]

This would be simply unforgiveable.

With an aggressive Kremlin and an unstable White House, Starmer must show leadership.

We are calling for the use of defence bonds to raise £20bn to end this stagnation.

[Wanstead Lib Dems @Wansteadlibdem1]

Nigel Farage missed 77 out of the last 77 votes in Parliament. He wants to be PM. How does he think democracy works?

[Liberal Democrats @LibDems]

Our democracy is under threat. From the Kremlin to Mar-a-Lago, powerful men are trying to destroy our great country.

Our new laws would ban foreign money, block foreign ads, and stop tech giants like Elon Musk buying influence.

We need action now. Only our party is offering it.

This Pride Month 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ it is more essential than ever to stand up for the rights and liberties of all LGBTQ+ people.

We have never and will never shy away from standing up for those rights, and will always stand against those who use the community to stir up hatred 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

From sewage to farming, we are leading the way on environmental issues that matter to British voters.

Meanwhile, when was the last time you heard the Green Party actually talk about green issues?

It's the @LibDems who are championing environmental causes

To be fair, if anyone knows how the KGB work….its Reform.

[Peter Stefanovic @PeterStefanovi2]

Reform UK chief Nigel Farage faces a standards probe after it emerged he had been given £5million by a Thailand-based cryto billionaire - which he dubbed a "reward for campaigning for Brexit"

Farage now claims Russian spies hacked his phone to obtain details of his controversial £5million gift

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage failed to pay a debt of £9,400 and had a County Court judgment imposed against him in 2024

[Wanstead Lib Dems @Wansteadlibdem1]

Parties like Reform and the Greens need to get their act together if they want to be taken seriously. Reform have lost something Ike 20 Cllrs since this years election. The Greens 5. It costs us all when they can’t get their vetting processes right. https://t.co/imT58THaYi

[Ed Davey @EdwardJDavey]

Wes Streeting gave a passionate speech today about a closer deal with the EU.

But he just voted against our amendment to do just that.

All words, no action. What does he really believe?

[Ed Davey @EdwardJDavey]

Trump & Vance need to stop meddling in British politics and fix their own country.

Here’s a message back from the UK: we don’t want your division, conspiracy politics or MAGA culture wars. And we don’t want unarmed civilians shot in our streets.

Britain is better than that.

[Ed Davey @EdwardJDavey]

This is a make or break moment for Labour MPs. As we force a vote tomorrow for a UK-EU Customs Union, leadership hopefuls like Andy Burnham are already U-turning on the EU.

Will they back our vote and fix this Brexit chaos, or keep failing the public? It's their choice.

Apparently the accounts didn’t quite tally up. Always follow the money….

Presumably, Britain was also on the wrong path during the 16 years Mr Burnham was a MP, including the 4 years he spent in a Labour government.

[Robert Peston @Peston]

Burnham to @DanielHewittITV: “Britain has been on the wrong path for a very long time”, including under the current Labour government. But “I’m not saying I’m the best” to lead Labour and the country (though this statement is probably not quite what he thinks)

So….no vote no voice then?
