Cllr Steven Jefferies spoke to the BBC about the pollution incident that killed many fish, including endangered eels, in the River Pool, which runs through north Beckenham. The Lib Dems have long campaigned for tougher action and greater accountability to protect our rivers.

Our local Police were on Beckenham Green this morning speaking with residents about bike marking, crime prevention and support for victims of domestic abuse. It’s great to see officers out in the community. Local police updates and community events at www.metengage.co.uk

People across the country are turning to the Liberal Democrats as the only party that can stop Reform and elect strong local community champions. We focus on church roofs, sewage and the cost of living, not copying the Trump playbook of divisive populism.

We can only assume the Reform Party is jealous of our excellent Bromley councillors, having recently tried to sign up Bromley Town's Sam Webber as a 'paper candidate'. @huffpost.com has highlighted this, noting the party has lost 65 councillors since last May!! shorturl.at/O1vPt

Sad to see Bromley's 24-hour police counter closed on 28 February. Sadiq Khan broke his promise every borough would keep a 24-hour police station. Cllr Graeme Casey said the idea of someone fleeing to the station at night and finding it was closed was "frightening".

It's good to see that work has started on the pedestrian crossing on Homesdale Road; we hope that work will be completed by Easter. Meanwhile traffic is controlled by temporary traffic lights along Homesdale Road, and Godwin Road is closed at the junction with Homesdale Road.

Bromley Council must do more to tackle empty homes in the borough. Figures highlighted this week show the number of long term empty properties, empty for 2 or more years, went up from 381 in September 2024 to 497 in September 2025 – a hike of 30%. We suggest an officer is dedicated to this issue.

Two social media posts. 

The first is from Keir Starmer and reads: “The UK has long supported a transition of power in Venezuela. We regarded Maduro as an illegitimate President and we shed no tears about the end of his regime. I reiterated my support for international law this morning. The UK government will discuss the evolving situation with US counterparts in the days ahead as we seek a safe and peaceful transition to a legitimate government that reflects the will of the Venezuelan people.” 

Below it is a post from Ed Davey that reads: “This cop out isn’t good enough. Standing up for international law means condemning leaders when they break it, whether that’s Vladimir Putin or Donald Trump.”
