This is the kind of barchartery even Lib Dems haven't dreamt of
Published headline polling continues to rely on a methodological sleight of hand: discounting Reform support by four points through legacy turnout weighting while assuming full legacy party recall. In raw voting intention tables, Reform is already at 29%, breathing down Labour neck while the Conservatives stall in the low twenties. The uniparty uses weighted polls as psychological reassurance; the real arithmetic shows a dead heat across key parliamentary battlegrounds.

โPutin will go nuclear before he gives up.โ
Dragonsโ Den star @FarleighRichard says that it may not be palatable, but Ukraine will have to accept a deal with Russia, because โthe West wonโt win this warโ.

Anyone who believes that Birmingham is going to elected one independent should be banned from reporting on politics
A good litmus test of people having a clue about politics is knowing this is obviously nonsense

The party that is currently most likely to form the next government has has senior members who have taken bribes from the Kremlin. God help us.

Thank you to everyone who voted for me in last week's @libdemlocalgov Group Elections - It's an absolute honour to have been elected as the Lead Member for our Party on the Safer and Stronger Communities Board
Out doing with residents surveys with @ethanbstafford
Only the Lib Dems are working hard all year round in Dudley!
Good to speak with @LGAcomms / @libdemlocalgov about the value of the LGA Peer Programme
Having peer support has been vital for me in my role as Group Leader in Dudley, and I'm looking forward to sharing that experience as a recent recruit to the Lib Dem peer pool
A remarkable sense of self-reflective honest from the Labour MP here. I too am sure residents who voted in three Labour councillors last May will be disappointed with what they've ended up with.
Lib Dems celebrate growing council presence with rally in Wollaston ift.tt/WvY67jc
Reducing the land of Shakespeare and Dickens, Newton and Darwin, the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution and of liberal democracy to a project is deeply offensive
In 2017, I said Brexit was the greatest ever vote of confidence in the project of the United Kingdom.
Keir Starmer and the Labour Party have never had that confidence in our country.
So they wonโt seize the opportunities in front of them.
