Updating @news.sky.com on the situation for residents in the Cotswolds following the incident yesterday. Those evacuated are still not allowed home.

I spoke to residents from Whelford earlier - they are safe and being looked after. My thanks go to the emergency services who acted so swiftly and decisively to prevent what could have been a terrible attack on Gloucestershire soil.

Totally support the pledge today made by @eddavey.libdems.org.uk at #LDConf to raise the income tax threshold to £15k - paid for fairly and honestly. Putting money back in people’s pockets.

Today I spoke at Conference about maternity services in Gloucestershire. There have been failings but some improvements are thankfully happening. Women need safe and accessible birth units in our very rural county. @libdems.org.uk

Thanks for the warm reception on the doorstep today in Blockley Ward. The Cotswold District Council by election is almost here - 24 September and people are increasingly backing Danny Loveridge. It was great to have @mp4stratford.bsky.social supporting Danny’s positive campaign.

We have to treat mental health with the same seriousness we treat physical health. And that starts with funding. While mental health services receive such meagre funding, vulnerable people and children will be left on waiting lists. We need fairer funding to get this right.

It’s the local government Hokey Cokey. Government announces that it is pausing reorganisation in Gloucestershire just 2 months after giving it the green light. So much work and money has already gone into this. We need certainty.

Supporting local businesses in the North Cotswolds. We’re lucky to have lots of small businesses locally and I dropped into one today - the Lamb at Great Rissington. Nothing is easy at the moment so buying local is one way of helping businesses to thrive.

Very sad to hear of the passing of a Chipping Campden resident last night. A major fire incident involved 13 fire engines from 3 different counties. My thanks go to Gloucestershire firefighters and to our neighbouring services. My thoughts of course go to those who knew the deceased.

Paulcotswolds @paulcotswolds.bsky.social · 03/08/2026

@rozsavage.bsky.social and I have written to @andyburnham.bsky.social about the importance of an infrastructure first approach to planning in the Cotswolds. This isn’t opposing new homes, it’s about development being supported by infrastructure that all residents deserve.

Hottest by far! Average max temp of 26.4c in July for readings taken here in the Cotswolds (usually 2-3c cooler than Cheltenham and Gloucester. Incredible consistent heat not seen before @westweather.co.uk @metoffice.gov.uk

Delighted to announce today a major boost to Domestic Abuse funding over the next 6 years in Gloucestershire. Over £6 million which will help keep people safe. DA represents 20% of all crimes in our county.

Another day, another Prime Minister. For the sake of the country we desperately need stability and hope. Andy Burnham has talked about this but he must deliver and fast on helping with the cost of living, fixing our NHS and beefing up our defences. @carmelogarcia.bsky.social

I showed @eddavey.libdems.org.uk the River Coln in North Cotswolds on Friday. One of the most polluted rivers in England with high levels of sewage pumped into it by Thames Water. The company has failed & must be put into administration. @libdems.org.uk

Breaking: Government confirms Gloucestershire will become one unitary council from April 2028. This option is my preference. The decision means that county wide services like fire, public health, adult social care, children’s services won’t need to be split up.

It was a great honour to welcome delegates yesterday in Gloucestershire for the first time to the Asian Fire Service Association Conference. I heard some compelling and emotional speeches and it was a really good event.

Glad to hear that a review of the ‘temporary’ changes at Cirencester Hospital will be reviewed at the county’s Health Scrutiny Committee in October. Our mass petition with @rozsavage.bsky.social called for services to be protected so I hope the NHS will listen to that.

Two excellent by election wins for Lib Dems in the Cotswolds overnight. Big majorities in both with Tories and Reform way behind. Congrats to my new colleagues Andrea Pellegram at county council and Naomi Bloomer at district council.

The Government have dangerously short-changed our Armed Forces when they need urgent investment after years of Conservative negligence. It's time to go much further and take up Liberal Democrat plans for defence bonds to give our Armed Forces the investment they need.

I announced at last week’s county council meeting that the @libdems.org.uk administration intends to send fire engines to Ukraine once they go out of service here. We’ve already been talking to our friends in Ukraine and stand in solidarity with them.

Nearly 1,300 people a month are dying in A&E departments while waiting for care that could have saved them, almost 10 times the toll in 2015. Opening a Liberal Democrat debate, Barbara Janke said this is the human cost of a health system that's stopped coping.

Clifton Brown makes no connection to the fact his own party started the chaos with Brexit, then had 4 short lived PMs. He talks about ‘lack of vision and plan’ yet he supported all of his own leaders publicly. 34 years as an MP and we get this. Time to go!

Stow on the Wold! Another pit stop on my video blogs. Steeped in history (civil war buffs will know) and looking quintessentially Cotswolds in the summer sunshine. The independent small shops and businesses in the town are a key part of the local economy.
