Quad-demic fears as a million people who tried to contact GP last month could not get through

Great to visit the Community Front Room in Wareham providing mental health support in Purbeck.fascinating to learn more about the service,look around this great facility run by BCHA & commissioned by Dorset Healthcare & discuss mental health with the team

Every victim deserves to feel safe and protected by the police, but brutal cuts to community officers mean that's far from the truth. The government must change course, get tough on crime and investing properly in local neighbourhood policing.

Newhaven MP, James MacCleary, has spoken out on worsening traffic congestion in the town centre on the A259. Queuing traffic throughout the day is causing frustration and delays affecting local businesses and residents. www.leweslibdems.org.uk/news/article...

James MacCleary MP says the Government has betrayed 1950s-born women affected by changes to the state pension age by refusing to implement the Ombudsman's recommendation for compensation. www.leweslibdems.org.uk/news/article...

We have always fought for fair votes, because the best way to fix our broken politics is to empower people with a system where EVERY vote counts. It's time for proportional representation to give everyone an equal say!

It might be almost Christmas and blowing a gale, but you can’t stop Lib Dems from their enthusiasm for delivering a leaflet! Thank you so much to everyone who has volunteered this year. ❤️

Fabulous Lewes Town Council 50 years event this weekend. Thank you to the 100s of people who came to take alook backwards and to also tell us what they would like to happen to their town going forward. @leweslibdems.bsky.social

This is the Conservative’s legacy of failure on crime. Thousands of victims left without the justice every single day. Things cannot continue like this. Our communities deserve to feel safe - and that includes being confident that if you’re the victim of a crime, the police will turn up.

It's positive to see the Chancellor engaging with the EU, but the govt are so unambitious. British business needs access to the single market, not more cautious cherry picking. Labour must to put British prosperity ahead of their fear of Reform UK. www.ft.com/content/5636...

A cracking piece from @samfr.bsky.social, though I would add a fourth theory for the paralysis - that the technocrats are not good enough... 1/3 samf.substack.com/p/politics-v...

The British public clearly want a closer economic relationship with our fellow Europeans. The question is what that could look like. What compromises will they accept, and what will the EU consider? One thing is clear; it must be much more ambitious than Labour's current toe dipping.

A real treat to attend the Swaffham Bulbeck Christmas Fair earlier today! 🎄

It’s Small Business Saturday! We've got some great local businesses in our area. These local businesses are the heart of our community, creating jobs, adding to our culture and driving our economy. Let’s show them some support today.

Lewes Lib Dems supporting the Foodbank collection today. Thank you to Mark Perryman for organising and thank you to the amazing generosity of Lewes people during this cost of living crisis.

A kick in the teeth for Lewes. www.moreradio.online/news/sussex-...

It was lovely to meet Bruce the French Bulldog, who was at Westminster with my colleague Danny Chambers. I will be supporting Danny's Puppy Smuggling Private Member's Bill in its second reading. The bill looks to tackle the abuse of smuggled animals.

A new Christmas classic has landed. Bath Philharmonia Young Carers’ Choir and Ed Davey are bidding to claim a Christmas Number One with the release of Love is Enough, in aid of Bath Philharmonia and Carers' Trust.

I’m so grateful to everyone who put their trust in me—including those who voted tactically to make it happen. In my first speech in Parliament, I promised to push for real electoral reform, so no one ever feels their vote doesn’t count.

#Surrey County Council have written to residents on Kingfield Road and Wych Hill Lane in #Woking about upcoming roadworks. The A247 between Turnoak roundabout and the football club will be closed from 28th November, 8 pm to 6 am, for two weeks for resurfacing.

It is deeply worrying to hear that the Post Office in Yate is potentially up for closure. This would be a huge blow for both Yate and Sodbury, which have seen many banks shut up shop in recent years.

“Will the government at least exempt GPs, community pharmacists and other health and care providers from this tax rise?” 📺 Edward Davey pushes the government to rethink the NI hikes on GP surgeries which could see millions struggling even more to secure an appointment.

Now more than ever, we must stand up for core liberal values—equality, democracy, human rights, and the rule of law. Join us in defending these values: http://libdems.org.uk/join
