@MarkPawsey @luhc Sorry @MarkPawsey, if you come speak to residents of Houlton instead of getting a script from Urban & Civic, you will hear them tell you how they lack access to GPs and primary school spaces. The roads the developers have left in some parts are in shambles.
Thank you to everyone who voted for me in Sutton Coldfield. I am pleased to have almost tripled my vote share to 12.2%. Thank you also to all my fabulous team. While the national outlook is hugely disappointing, I will continue to stand up for Liberal values.

.@JennyWLibDem summing up in the debate. #VoteLibDem for a change in Sutton. The conservatives have moved to the extreme right. Labour have moved to the extreme left. The Lib Dems offer a place for sensible policies for our country #GE2019
The Liberal Democrats’ plans seem to involve lower levels of borrowing than implied by either the Labour or Conservative manifestos.
They would appear to be the only party which would put debt on a decisive downward path, says Carl Emmerson at our #GE2019 manifesto analysis.
