Brexit has been a disaster – it’s time the guilty men felt some shame

[John Braithwaite @jbraithw9]

@libdemlocalgov @CarolinePidgeon Unlike Merton Labour who happily introduce changes to reduce scrutiny and strengthen cabinet control

[Liberal Democrats @LibDems]

Our democracy is under threat from powerful men outside our country who wish to destroy it.

Our plan would cut the strings of foreign interference in our politics.

[Wimbledon & Merton Lib Dems🔶 @MertonLibDems]

Our plan for a Safer and Cleaner borough will focus on getting the basics right, ensuring your Council Tax funds visible improvements.

This includes restoring proper community policing and introducing fixed-schedule street cleaning.

@AJ_Fairclough Also good to see Merton coloured Orange on BBC London this evening

[Wimbledon & Merton Lib Dems🔶 @MertonLibDems]

Merton's Labour Council talks about the cost-of-living crisis, but their choices tell a different story.

Residents are being squeezed from all sides, and something has to change.

The Liberal Democrats will deliver a fairer & more affordable Merton👇

At a time when Trump has launched an illegal war that is devastating the Middle East and pushing up bills for British families, it’s clear this visit should not go ahead.

[Wimbledon & Merton Lib Dems🔶 @MertonLibDems]

We're fighting to take control of the Council because our community deserves better: better services, better value for money & a council that actually listens.

Back the Liberal Democrats in 2026, and together we'll build the Merton people choose proudly to call home.

[Wimbledon & Merton Lib Dems🔶 @MertonLibDems]

Today, we’re proud to launch our manifesto & set out our positive plan for Merton.

The local elections are a chance to choose a fresh start for our community.

Merton Community Panel are looking for Clarion residents to join their Community Panel. This is a great chance to have a real say in local housing, regeneration, and community funding.

@PJSutton9 @LibAbbey @pippamaslin @JimBouldenTV @SaveWimbledon I see the tree canopy has been lifted at last too. Just waiting for the central raised bed timbers to be renewed or are they doing that at the same time?

[Wimbledon & Merton Lib Dems🔶 @MertonLibDems]

The government has baked in £24m of cuts for Merton Council over the next three years.

We don't think this is "fair".

[Wimbledon & Merton Lib Dems🔶 @MertonLibDems]

Tonight is Merton Council's annual budget meeting.

Here's an explainer on what to expect & how, contrary to Labour's spin, council tax is going up by 2.5% & how Merton will get £24m less in government funding over coming years in their 'fair funding' for Merton.

[Paul Kohler🔶MP for Wimbledon @PaulKohlerSW19]

The Mayor & the Met had promised there would be at least one 24hr police counter in every borough.

With Merton now losing public access to both its police stations, I spoke to @BBCLondonNews about the impact on vulnerable residents.

[Hina Bokhari OBE AM 🔶 @HinaBokhariLD]

Did you know the Northern Line gets the most complaints for tube noise? So we asked TfL to come to South Wimbledon to talk to local residents about what they're doing to reduce it.

[John Braithwaite @jbraithw9]

@MertonLibDems A worrying development as there always seem to be long queues at both the post offices. This would make thngs worse. Thank you Paul for trying to find a solution
