Fair play Ed Davey for condemning masked racist thugs on the streets of Britain. Why is it left to a Lib Dem leader to fill this chasm? #EdDaveySpeech #LibDemConference

I’ve been very happy to support this motion. Water companies’ customers and the environment need radical change in the water industry
It is now Lib Dem policy to mutualise failing water companies.
The privatisation of the water industry has been a license for rich executives to extract billions of pounds instead of reinvesting it to benefit customers.
The Lib Dems now have a more radical policy on water than Labour. 🔶🤝🌊 #LDConf

For years, our rivers, lakes and seas have been pumped full of filthy sewage while executives pocket billions.
It’s time to take profit out of water, end failed privatisation and put communities and our environment first.

I was proud to be in the hall and vote for this motion.
Delighted to have got the chance to get up in stage at Lib Dem Conference to speak truth to power and advocate for the rights of trans and non-binary people.
Even more delighted that the motion 'Restoring trans rights' passed overwhelmingly.

While Farage fights in a bin in Clacton, we are winning across the country, with a GAIN from Reform in Kirklees and Labour in East Devon.
In so many parts of the country, only the Liberal Democrats can defeat Reform.
Huge congratulations to the teams on their results!

It’s outrageous that #ThamesWater customers are now being asked again to pay for the mismanagement of their local water network over years. Like double taxation, it just isn’t fair.
Once again, billpayers are being rinsed for £3.4bn to fix a water network neglected for decades.
It's time the government kept their promise and finally scrapped the failing Ofwat for good.

They are taking the mickey! It’s high time the government sorts out #ThamesWater. It should be owned by its customers, with proper regulation and without its long suffering customers having to pay twice for required investment.

MPs and mayors close to Andy Burnham have told the prime minister there is a “third way” tlauo gain more control of failing companies, as the row over whether or not to nationalise Thames Water rumbles on.
Burnham is said to be concerned about the increase in government debt that Treasury projections show could be a result of nationalising water companies. Continue reading...

Not all areas have strategic mayoralties and not all areas look like Manchester. Large rural councils have their own, unique challenges and must be given the resources and the devolved powers to run them well
Power and resources need to be devolved to all areas of the country not just the areas with strategic mayors. Hopefully this will be confirmed later.

Increased drilling in the North Sea will not bring down domestic fuel prices. There is no benefit to it. Andy Burnham must resist the temptation
There’s massive fallacy at the very start and heart of this story - no amount of new oil and gas from the North Sea can bring down the cost of living - global markets set the price, even when we make it here - not us.

We need more democracy, at national level and also - very importantly - at local level. Local democracy needs more power to make decisions in the interest of residents and more democratic accountability
2024 General Election. Second lowest turnout in history. Labour won on only 34% of the vote. - Andy Burnham needs to do what he preaches and upgrade our democracy, not only fair votes, but the democratisation of every level of local and national government.

Net Zero has been dragged into a culture war, putting real climate progress at risk.🌍
This Net Zero Week, we need to separate fact from fiction.
Only when people understand what Net Zero and renewable energy actually mean will they back the transition we need.
