This also marks the first time Reform have not led in our tracker since April 2025. It is the lowest share of the vote for the Greens since October last year when Polanski became leader.

While other parties abandon environmentalism , Liberal Democrats remain committed to the fight.

Our message is clear: if you care about protecting Britain’s nature, we’ll offer you a better deal than anyone else.

35°C in May 🤯

It has never been this hot this early in the year, ever. The climate has changed and it's not going to go back to normal anytime soon.

People are already dying in heatwaves across Europe, yet Reform are busy scrapping climate targets and pretending this crisis isn’t happening.

We won every seat on Richmond upon Thames Council last week.

But that doesn’t mean we’ve changed our mind on electoral reform.

It’s time the Government stopped defending a broken system out of self-interest and backed proportional representation.

The old two parties keep failing people looking for change.

More people are turning to a party that stands for true British values: the Liberal Democrats.

8 sets of gains in a row - it's our best ever winning streak at local elections.

We are the party for those who want to build Britain up, not burn it all down.

This:
Saying: “I don’t like the mainstream political parties so I’m going to vote Reform”

Is like…

Saying: “I don’t like this burger so I’m going to eat a toxic waste tip instead.”

Does anyone understand this logic?

We are the only non-populist party left standing. We are the only party that can defeat Reform.

Join us, and fight to build our country up rather than tear it all down. 🔶🇬🇧

Strip away Farage's insults and outrage and there's nothing there but a desperation to turn the UK into his version of Trump's America.

We will talk Britain up, not down, because we know how special our country can be.
