Why does Sadiq Khan think Sutton needs less affordable housing than the rest of London? 😡😡 Councillor @jakeshort.bsky.social explains the Mayor's recent decision and why we'll be fighting it every step of the way.

Fascinating visit to Zotefoams in Beddington – a global manufacturer employing hundreds of people in our area. They produce high-quality products used in everything from construction and cars to planes and footwear. Great to see a business like this thriving locally.

Very shortly, MPs will be voting on our #LibDem amendment to kickstart negotiations for a UK-EU Customs Union. It's time for Labour MPs to put their money where their mouth is and take a genuine, concrete step towards fixing the Brexit mess. I really do hope they'll walk through the lobby with us.

Trump's illegal war in Iran is already hitting families with higher prices at the pump. Half-measures and long-term policies won't cut it. We need to slash fuel duty now. Today we have launched our plan to keep Britain moving - including a 10% cut in fuel duty.

On Christmas morning 2021, Lillie Clack was hit by a drunk driver travelling up to 100mph. She died three days later. Her family have been bravely fighting for Lillie's law, which I'm backing. It is right that we permanently revoke someone's license if found guilty of death by careless driving.

If Labour agree that the Tories' botched Brexit deal is hurting our country, they should stop complaining and start fixing it. Starting with a new UK-EU customs union.

An Ed Davey quote which reads:
I know Labour MPs are relieved that they are finally allowed to say the Conservatives’ Brexit deal is a disaster.

But that can’t just be a political ruse to attack Nigel Farage – however much he deserves it.

Or even worse – given we still have the highest inflation in the G7 – it mustn’t be a smokescreen to raise taxes on ordinary people.

It must be a call to action.
 We must negotiate a new UK-EU customs union.
