My thoughts today are with the 72 people who lost their lives in the Grenfell fire, and with the survivors and bereaved families who have fought so long. This is their day. They have waited too long to get the truth, and are still waiting for real justice and meaningful action.

Pensioners shouldnโ€™t have to choose between heating and eating again this winter. I will never stop fighting for a fair deal for our Bath community๐Ÿ‘‡

The news of the stabbing in Odd Down yesterday is deeply distressing. Thank you to Avon and Somerset Police for dealing with the incident so swiftly, and to staff RUH Bath ๐Ÿฅ for their crucial support. My thoughts and prayers are with the victim, their family and friends at this difficult time.

Huge congratulations to Team Bath legend Dimitri on your heroic win!๐Ÿฅ‡๐Ÿคบ I'm sure everyone in Bath and across the country is incredibly proud of you!๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง The immense success of Bath-based athletes in Paris is a testament to the city's brilliant facilities and strong spirit๐Ÿ‘

Cutting winter fuel payments now, when measures to mitigate the impact will only come through after winter is deeply unfair. Politics is about choices - and many of my Bath constituents are worried sick. Pensioners should not be paying the price for Conservative incompetence๐Ÿ‘‡

No one should be prevented from travelling due to a lack of accessibility measures - but sadly this is a reality for many across the UK. That's why we Liberal Democrats are committed to fighting for a fair deal for all passengers, and will call on the government to do the same.๐Ÿš†

Fantastic to see we've reduced almost 40% of emissions in B&NES in recent years. Around 1/3 of our emissions are caused by the electricity & gas we use at home - that's why energy-efficiency measures are vital ๐Ÿ  The progress B&NES Council has made in these key areas is brilliant ๐Ÿ‘

We must win hearts and minds to show that Net Zero is good for our communities, good for our pockets, and good for our economy. Community energy is the win-win-win policy that can do exactly this. That's why we @libdems are urging Labour to include it in the GB Energy Bill๐Ÿ‘‡

Have your children been inspired by the golden performances of Team Bath athletes in the Olympics and Paralympics? While the summer of sport might be nearing its end, there are still plenty of opportunities for young Bathonians to try out something new with Team Bath!๐Ÿ‘‡

Congratulations to Bath City Farm on reaching your target!๐Ÿ‘ The farm is such an asset to our city, offering people of all ages the chance to connect with nature, animals & sustainable farming. It is very welcome news that the farm can continue to be a vibrant community hub๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐ŸŒพ

We Liberal Democrats welcome the steps in the government's Bill to ban bonuses and introduce sentences for greedy water bosses. But these measures don't go far enough. We need to overhaul this disgraced industry and bring in a tough new regulator to end the sewage scandal for good.

Congratulations to Dimitri Coutya, Piers Gilliver and Oliver Lam-Watson for your fantastic performance!๐Ÿ‘ Another triumph for Bath-based athletes as the trio secure silver๐Ÿฅˆ What a spectacular moment for our city and Team Bath! ๐Ÿ™Œ

Years of Conservative neglect have pushed prisons to breaking point - there's no time to waste in fixing this mess. We Liberal Democrats have long called to resolve this crisis by cutting reoffending and tackling the court backlog to reduce the number of people in prison on remand.

Green economic growth could bring ยฃ1trn to UK businesses - an immense opportunity that we cannot afford to miss. We must prioritise Net Zero to maximise the vast economic & environmental rewards that it can offer to communities in the UK. Anything less would be a major misstep.
