Liberal Democrat councillor Cleckheaton ward in Kirklees. Local Govnt Spokesperson in Lords. Promoted by the Liberal Democrats 1, Vincent Square London SW1P2PN

Cleckheaton, West Yorkshire
Joined July 2010
At tonight's #Kirklees Full Council meeting, the Conservative group have just backed Reform in a move to bring forward their motion to "undeclare a climate emergency" in Kirklees. Undeclaring climate change does not change reality! There is no way we could ever support such a motion. #ClimateJustice #Lindley #Kirklees #LibDems

I feel profoundly sad for the Greens that joined a party thinking they were going to be environmentalists and have found themselves surrounded by antisemitism. I am also appalled at the cowardice displayed by their leader, who chose not to lead, but to hide. If you’re a Green Party member and your political foundation is rooted in equality for all, as well as being a proud custodian of our natural world, you can find your political home in the Liberal Democrats.

Social care and who pays debate needs to be illuminated by some facts. 1/3 (approx) of adults receiving social care are aged 18-64. Due to complex needs their funding takes approx 1/2 of council funding available. Figs. are nationwide and from Govnt.

Liberal Democrats took more than 3 million people out of paying income tax altogether with the personal allowance. Rewarding hard work and aspiration. Helping the lowest paid the most. 

So we will raise the tax-free personal allowance to £15,000. Taking 2 million more people out of paying tax altogether, and giving most taxpayers a £680 tax cut.

Completely agree. That’s the reason for the private members bill that I introduced on Friday. If only the Government would act on even some of the measures in the Bill!!
Replying to @GrenfellUnited
Grenfell should have been the moment that made the safety of people in their homes an absolute priority. But nine years later, too many are still living with the consequences of a system that has been far too slow to change. Every delay matters. Promises must become change.

💯 Under this bill, ALL leaseholders (unless they are/were the developer) would be equally protected. Regardless of building height, whether the building is enfranchised, or how many other properties a leaseholder owns. None of these exclusions would exist. @NonQualifyingLH 2/2

Thank you, @kathpinnock, for your unwavering support for victims of the building safety crisis. Many of our members are trapped in unmortgageable flats they can no longer afford. They need urgent action, not more warm words from the Government.

Thank you @KathPinnock! You’ve always been so supportive and passionate about the plight of leaseholders. Keep up the good work, hundreds of thousands of us are grateful. Perhaps @andyburnham will succeed where Keir Starmer failed. @UKLabour must do more & support Lib Dem efforts

Under four in ten buildings with unsafe cladding in England have been fixed, and leaseholders who did nothing wrong are paying the price. Kath Pinnock set out her bill today to protect leaseholders in buildings of any height and make the firms responsible pay. @KathPinnock

Thank you Baroness Pinnock & the @LibDems for your ongoing support in our battle for justice. It will also be Baroness Blake’s first appearance as Building Safety Minister. Will there be signs this crisis will no longer be swept under the carpet? Tune in tomorrow to find out.

It’s clear Farage is happy to take money from anyone to fund his personal power trip. He doesn’t care about voters, it’s all about his ego. Foreign donors, wealthy companies - he clearly doesn’t care if he’s breaking the law. Excellent journalism. Over to you @metpoliceuk
Nigel Farage and other senior members of Reform UK have been filmed by undercover reporters celebrating secret new foreign donations. Channel 4 News and @Verbatim_Media, a group of investigative journalists, can today reveal a plot to break the law on party funding at the highest levels of Reform UK. You can watch the full investigation here: youtu.be/aXut3s90rUI Channel 4 News approached Reform UK, Mr Farage, Mr Jukes and Mr Orr for comment on the findings of this investigation. They did not comment but we understand they deny the allegations in full.
