Constituents in #StLoyes Ward will note their Reform UK Limited City Councillor's comments and wonder why she didn't called a by-election when she defected from the Conservatives to Reform UK Limited at the end of last year.
The @libdems.org.uk demand better.

Electoral Commission responds to potential election postponements
We are concerned by the possibility of some council elections in May being postponed, and even more by any further postponement to those which already had been deferred from 2025.

We’re handing more money to big US pharma firms while our patients languish in corridors or wait 12+ hours in A&E.

That's why we've set out our plan to end the A&E crisis.

People were rightly furious with the Conservative Party for plunging the NHS into this crisis. Now they are fed up with Labour for letting things get worse on their watch.

We must tackle the crisis in A&E.

12 Hour A&E waits aren't normal. A culture of corridor care isn't normal.

Our A&E crisis is a scandal and we have a plan to fix it. 👇

Farage backed Boris Johnson's disastrous Brexit deal and Liz Truss's catastrophic mini-budget.

No wonder he’s welcoming someone who enthusiastically supported both.

January sees the highest rates of suicide than any other time of the year. This cannot continue.

We need a bold public health campaign that encourages people to talk, reach out, and get help they need.

Here’s some of what I got up to in the first week of 2026:
Graphic with an orange background and blue bands going from right to left. On the top-left is a circular image of Richard Foord standing with some cliffs behind him. On the top-right is text reading “Richard Foord MP Demanding better for Honiton & Sidmouth”. Below the text is an outline of Devon filled with the Devon flag, and a Liberal Democrat logo. Underneath these are two images of Richard. On the left of the graphic is a translucent box underneath "5th - 9th January 2026" and five chevrons acting as bullet points. Each point reads: - Urged the Government to take action to make rural roads in Devon safer - Wrote in the Herald about my 2026 priorities: local services, water quality, and our NHS - Promoted in Parliament the work of pupils from Axe Valley Academy - Asked the Defence Secretary about US commitment to Europe - Spoke to LBC News about the US stance on Venezuela and Greenland

Tearing NATO apart only helps the likes of Vladimir Putin.
The UK should offer to send troops to Greenland as part of a joint NATO operation under Danish and UK command. If Trump is serious about security, he'd agree to participate and drop his outrageous threats. Tearing the NATO alliance apart would only play into the hands of Putin.- Ed Davey
