“My default position has been for 19 years, if somebody on Kendal Market asked me what I did this week and I felt any sense of shame about telling them - don’t do it in the first place” Lib Dem Tim Farron is applauded for his stance on accepting gifts in office #bbcqt

"I tell you what is the best deterrent, competence." - Tim Farron on #BBCQT Instead of wasting money on failed schemes like the Rwanda Plan, let's process asylum claims quickly. Return those who aren't refugees humanely, and welcome those who are.

Lib Dem gain from Labour. Labour go from first to third 👀🔶

I’ll be joining these two legends on BBC Merseyside this morning to chat about tomorrow’s charity abseil for Sahir House. I’m already scared, as I asked them to be in full drag and in Liverpool City Centre ready to go for 8am 🫣

With the general election turning every Merseyside seat red, city hall and the metropolitan mayoralty sewn up, and their party conference on the waterfront days away, Labour’s standing in Liverpool appears insuperable...🧵

"If a week is a long time in politics, then three years is a virtual eternity. Nonetheless, the golden rule of Liverpool politics suggests the strong possibility that voters will be tempted to look at parties and options with a different hue from the incumbent government."

A cringeworthy performance by Liverpool Labour MP Kim Johnson on BBC Merseyside this morning. Trying to explain how our city benefits from her accepting free tickets to Taylor Swift and Grand National, and why she failed to vote against the winter fuel cut & child benefit cap.

A great speech by Ed Davey topped off by telling Conference that we will be taking the fight to Labour in Liverpool 🔶💪🏼

Liverpool Liberal Democrats Ed Davey Let's do this Carl Cashman, as tens of thousands of survivors across #Liverpool feel thoroughly let down by the Metro Mayor, as his promise to never give up fighting for #ParityNotCharity has completely been forgotten. #ExcludedUK Liberal Democrats Pete Price x.com/MetroMayorStev…

Carl is a leader who isn’t like anyone I have ever met politically A genuine person who cares Proud to call him and Rebecca Turner 🔸 mates If you want to stand against the Liverpool Labours mismanagement and neglect of Liverpool then think about joining Liverpool Liberal Democrats 🧡

Carl Cashman Rebecca Turner 🔸 Liverpool Liberal Democrats Nice one mate 🧡 Thank you very much 🤞2027 Imagine a Lib Dem run council with councillors who are all in it for the right reasons. The campaigners and councillors we have now already work so hard and stand against so so much

Liverpool’s young Liberals are boss pass it on 🔶💛

As Labour arrive in Liverpool this weekend for the party’s annual conference, I’ve been speaking to pensioners in the city who are really worried about the government’s plans to cut winter fuel payments for so many One said: ‘Stop making it harder for us to live’ 🧵

As Labour descend on Liverpool for their conference, I echo Carl Cashman's words from last year: Welcome to the city, apologies for what your party have done to the place.

Wonderful from ⁦The Telegraph⁩ ⁦Liberal Democrats⁩

Today’s pre-Labour conference Liverpool Echo as the government rolls into the city A challenge from worried pensioners to the PM and analysis from myself and Dan Haygarth
