Kemi Badenoch sneered at our party for caring about communities and working hard to get things done. Well that's who we are. Vote Liberal Democrat on 7th May.

The United Kingdom is at its best when we’re true to our values: tolerance, decency, respect for individual freedom and the rule of law. We can't let Nigel Farage throw that all away by turning Britain into Trump’s America. Choose a brighter future with the Liberal Democrats.

This leak on Milner Place, N1 was reported 3 days ago to @thameswater and there are still no signs of any repairs. How much longer should residents have to wait? @IslingtonBC

To the driver of the white Range Rover PG19 GKU - why speed dangerously through a red light and pedestrian crossing? @metpoliceuk @IslingtonBC can you do anything?

Islington is one of the top three councils for rat infestations reported in London. A shocking statistic for this Labour-run borough. It’s time to clean up our streets.

Very disappointed that plans for the cafe building on the Fields have been shelved. New designs for lavatories, park keeper’s office and space for a fixed or mobile food & drink offer will be drawn up - work due to start Sept 2026. Demolition of existing buildings due Feb 2026.

Hi ⁦@IslingtonBC⁩ - please could this important safety barrier by the zebra crossing on Highbury Grove be replaced asap? It was removed by contractors delivering a new toilet to Highbury Fields. They also hit the lamppost which has lifted the pavement and will need fixing.

🚨Lib Dem win!🚨 Glad to see the government is listening to our calls for a Youth Mobility Scheme with the EU. This has to be the first step in fixing our broken relationship with the EU.

"Let’s be clear – these thugs do not speak for Britain or our values. But how we choose to respond as a country does." Ed Davey calls for action: adopt a formal definition of Islamophobia and appoint an Independent Government Adviser on Islamophobia. libdems.org.uk/news/article/…

It’s been a difficult few days for anyone who is black, brown, perceived to be Muslim or visibly Muslim. I don’t want to keep talking about Islamophobia. London is a diverse wonderful city & we can get through this together. Let’s stop the hate.👇🏽 libdemvoice.org/hina-bokhari…
