NEW: EFRA committee chair confirms he is now looking at calling in the shareholders of South East Water for questioning in Parliament.

Alistair Carmichael tells me:

[Mike Martin MP 🔸 @ThreshedThought]

YEEEEESSSSS!

Our campaign pushed the government to enact the already passed legislation (our team in the Lords also laid the dam amendment earlier this week).

Harassing women in public will now be an enforceable crime!

Best Christmas present ever!

If you are a business in Tunbridge Wells affected by the ongoing water situation please fill in my short survey to help me argue for your compensation

Try going days without water. That’s what people in Tunbridge Wells have had to do.  

Families, care homes and schools are in limbo while South East Water still can’t say when this will be fixed. Thank you Mike Martin for stepping up and holding those responsible to account.

[Mike Martin MP 🔸 @ThreshedThought]

I am aware of the water outage in Tunbridge Wells - indeed I am without water myself.

I am onto the CEO of South East Water and will post updates here as I get them.

I attended County Council meeting with a Reform leader who reportedly swears at her members, sacks them instantly, and demands letters of personal loyalty.
This is absolutely not how you run an effective, democratic County Council in Kent. ❌ https://t.co/SEyO3AMlD5

This lovely sunny weather means the ground is very dry so if you’re planning to enjoy the sunshine in one of the beautiful parks or green spaces we look after in Tunbridge Wells we’d rather you didn’t BBQ there.

My amendment forcing the government to implement the Sex-based Harassment in Public Act 2023 has been selected for a separate vote.

Have you heard about the Community Governance Review?
We’re asking if you think a parish or town council should be created for the six areas of Tunbridge Wells without one.
Lots more information about the CGR and what it might mean for you on our website https://t.co/V1vmiTGZWz

[Mark Ellis 🇬🇧🔶🇪🇺 #LibDems #FBPE @markstraffellis]

As a Lib Dem Cllr on KCC, watching this Reform circus is concerning and predictable. Their much-vaunted DOGE cost-cutting drive already in tatters - key figures resigned within days. Vulnerable residents deserve serious governance, not populist stunts.

[Mark Ellis 🇬🇧🔶🇪🇺 #LibDems #FBPE @markstraffellis]

As a newly elected Lib Dem Cllr, I'm disgusted by Reform UK's dangerous games with Kent County Council.

They parachuted in some Musk wannabe promising a 'DOGE effect' on services for thousands of vulnerable people.

5 days later? Gone.

A reckless populist stunt.
