Last week I challenged the decision to sell Mansion House. Cllr Goodway first admitted that Cllr Thomas had not invested in it properly and then told us that he would prefer to sell off Cardiff's built heritage than repurpose it and save it for the future.

@janehordley @cardifflibdems @joseph_carterUK @rodneyberman @bablinmolik The Cabinet Member promised us an update next month....so let's see what is said! It's a shame that Cardiff Singer of the World was cancelled this year. It survived COVID but not this Labour administration.

@HannahPerkin The reaction I get from the public when I turn up in hoodie and jeans (and maybe a tick music t-shirt) to meet them is hilarious. But it makes them more relaxed. As Lib Dems we don't follow the crowd and celebrate individualism. Be yourself, it's no one else's business!

Down at Waterloo Gardens this afternoon members of Penylan's St Peter's Rugby Club are selling yummy cakes to help fund their under 10s tour. I had one only to support the local community....not for the cakes at all.... 😉

We’ve decided to bring down Trump and Vance by reactivating Agent Truss. She torched the Tories for us in less than 2 months. Musk will have deleted his account by Summer. Happy to help.

@greg_jenner I'm listening to the latest You're Dead To Me on the Spanish conquest of Mexico and Jen Brister says that all the men are awful yet glorified, whilst the few women are vilified.... Has she not listened to any previous episode? That's basically history in a nutshell!

When you find a nook in a stunning room with a stunning view, you have to get out a book and relax! My son in his happy place. @cadwwales @cadwcymru #CastellCoch

Getting close to nature at @StFagans_Museum. A lovely day out with the kids (as it always is)....albeit a tad cold!

Hello @cardiffcouncil social media team, me again! This bag has been dumped on Marlborough Road outside Marlborough Primary School. Could that be dealt with too please? Diolch!

[Cllr Jon Shimmin 🔶🇪🇺🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦 @jon_shimmin]

Good afternoon @cardiffcouncil. Could a team be sent to empty this overflowing bin outside the Blenheim Road entrance to Marlborough Primary School.

Plans to build a new velodrome in #CardiffBay look set to be scrapped and campaigners fighting for the survival of historic Maindy Velodrome have been given a glimmer of hope.

Thank you Cabinet Member Lee Bridgeman @09bridgey for coming out to Penylan Library & meeting with me & manager Jen to discuss the great work @cdflibraries do. I advocated for the importance of this service & we discussed how it can grow & serve the community even better.

Former Welsh Lib Dem Baroness Randerson dies aged 76 https://t.co/vB6TkwpN76

[William Powell🔶🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 @WmPowell2021]

@jennyranderson was #Liberal to her core, embodying a commitment to grassroots community politics, which she never lost. In @cardiffcouncil @SeneddWales @WalesOffice @UKHouseofLords, she was always a voice for the marginalised & the vulnerable. We will not see her like again #RiP

[Cllr Jon Shimmin 🔶🇪🇺🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦 @jon_shimmin]

I was lucky enough to know Jenny both personally and professionally. She was a wonderful, kind person with a true passion for liberalism. She leaves a legacy to be proud of and I am proud to have known her.

[Cardiff Liberal Democrats @cardifflibdems]

It is with huge sadness that we announce the death of Baroness Jenny Randerson, former Assembly Member for Cardiff Central and Minister, who passed away at her home in Cardiff on Saturday at the age of 76.

Great to be out in Penylan with @CoedCaerdydd and local residents planting apple trees.

@cardiffcouncil @Help_C2C Is that the new process for logging a Member's Enquiry? We haven't been informed of any changes.

Afternoon @cardiffcouncil another bollard has been knocked out at the crossing of Waterloo Road and Melrose Avenue. Thanks!
