The botched Brexit deal dreamt up by the Farage and delivered by the Conservatives has brought nothing but red-tape and economic misery.
The government must now deliver their promised “EU-reset” - starting with a new UK-EU Customs Union.

So proud of my son and his team for winning their first football match over the weekend. It’s their second season together and they had lost every game up to now. It meant so much to them, like they won the cup final.
I will always remember this 🥲

Mad busy but happy doing what I do best. Our engineers are installing a heat pump in Southport and I’ve been getting everyone’s heating going for the winter.
Finished last heat pump repair at 9pm tonight. On Monday I fixed a heat pump 5 or 6 engineers tried to before me and I sorted it in an hour.

Last week Sefton Council voted against asking One Vision Housing to reinstate the gardening service at these bungalows for elderly and disabled residents.
But that didn’t stop me getting them some help as a temporary solution. Thanks to Parrydise Gardens, Jillian is now delighted with her garden.

Just a couple of minor improvements to report:
A resident asked for the bin to be replaced outside Fleetwood Rd park just a few weeks ago. Cambridge Ward councillors have covered this through ward funds.
I reported a large pothole on Radnor Dive.
Thanks to Sefton Council staff for sorting.

Lib Dem Treasury Spokesperson @libdemdaisy.bsky.social spot on again. The employers’ National Insurance hike has been one of the most damaging economic policies in recent memory.
We’re seeing fewer jobs, more shops, bars and restaurants closing, and the cost of living continues to rise.

I am relieved that Southport pier appears to be okay after a small fire last night. Thank you to Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service for a fast reaction to save it.
Hopefully the next news we hear on the Pier will be the funding confirmed and a date to start the long-term repair.

I got BT to clean up the phone box on Manchester Rd. Just wanted to do a favour for the businesses as it wasn’t fair on them having this filthy thing outside.
I have also asked about getting it replaced which I am discussing the Council and fellow Cambridge Ward councillors.

Russia is blatantly committing war crimes doing double tap strikes on Ukrainian emergency service vehicles, and some people think Putin is coming to negotiate in good faith with Trump.
Nothing good will come of this Alaska meeting, it’s all for show.

I agree with these words. I don’t think it’s wise for the police to announce the ethnicity of the suspect every time there is a high profile case. A dangerous step for society to take.

Family of Southport stabbing victim criticise plan to reveal ethnicity of suspects
Exclusive: Michael Weston King, grandfather of Bebe King, warns government against ‘kowtowing to the likes of Farage’
The family of Bebe King, one of the three girls killed in the Southport attack last year, have urged ministers to reconsider their support for disclosing the ethnicity of serious crime suspects, saying this information is “completely irrelevant” and that “the propensity to commit crime happens in any ethnicity, nationality or race”.
Bebe was six when she was murdered by 17-year-old Axel Rudakubana, a Welsh-born black Briton from a Christian family who had lived in the local area for a number of years. Continue reading...
