“Four years ago I was talking about how this lamppost was on 24 hours a day. “How much has this Labour administration [in Waltham Forest] wasted by failing to fix our lampposts?” @arranangus.bsky.social , Liberal Democrat Grove Green candidate. #walthamforest #grovegreen #votelibdem

“Antisemitism, just like Islamophobia, is abhorrent. This [latest report] raises serious questions about the Greens’ vetting processes locally & nationally,” said @arranangus.bsky.social after a Waltham Forest Green candidate became the latest to be investigated for antisemitism.

“Labour have let our community down again.” Here’s Joe Dyer, the Liberal Democrat candidate for #Leyton ward, on Labour’s failings in the #housing sector & how to start putting things right. #WalthamForest #VoteLibDems

💫”Six to Fix!” 🔶The Waltham Forest Liberal Democrats manifesto for the upcoming Local Elections on 7th May focuses on crime, health, housing, waste & recycling, the environment, roads and pavements. #walthamforest #votelibdem #grovegreen #highamhill #leyton

Meet Arran Angus My name is Arran Angus & I am part of the Grove Green ward team with my brilliant colleagues Naomi McCarthy & Fiona Hamilton. I have lived in the local area for over a decade where I’m now bringing up 2 children. I have always thought that it’s a fantastic place to live. 1/2

Meet Naomi McCarthy Naomi has lived in Grove Green with her husband & two children since 2012. She joined the Lib Dems in 2016 & has been championing local residents' concerns ever since. She has supported them on issues such as housing, special educational needs, & fly tipping complaints. 1/2

Meet Fiona Hamilton I’m a resident of Leytonstone since 2019, living in the heart of Grove Green with my partner. I want to see local businesses thrive & believe LibDems on Waltham Forest Council will help ensure a vibrant local community with good-quality housing & reliable transport. 1/2

Lib Dems will use empty dwelling management orders to help address the borough’s housing crisis. “It’s a power that councils hold & Waltham Forest has never used it to take action on long‑term empty homes,” said Grove Green candidate @arranangus.bsky.social walthamforestecho.co.uk/2026/04/29/l...

🔶 Our hard-working Liberal Democrat team in Grove Green,Naomi McCarthy, Fiona Hamilton and Arran Angus, have reported the rubbish strewn across Murchison Road. 🚮 #grovegreen #Labourrubbish #SixToFix #votelibdem @naomimccarthy.bsky.social @arranangus.bsky.social

“The Liberal Democrats believe that everybody has a right to safe, affordable #housing, but that’s not happening here in Waltham Forest,” Fiona Hamilton, Lib Dem candidate for Grove Green ward #walthamforest #libdems #grovegreen #SixToFix

The delay compels patients & staff to use a 123 yr old hospital in dire need of urgent repairs & investment. #WalthamForest deserves better! Vote Lib Dems on 7th May, so we can maintain the pressure on Labour to fix our local health services. #labourbrokenpromises #whippscrosshospital 2/2

You can’t trust Labour! Before the 2024 General Elections, Shadow Health Secretary @wesstreeting promised to rebuild Whipps Cross Hospital. Yet after being elected, they’ve scrapped that pledge with the hospital rebuild not due to start until 2032 at the earliest!! 1/2

From health and housing to safer streets and a cleaner environment, our Waltham Forest Liberal Democrat candidates are ready with a Six Point Plan to improve life for everyone in our borough. #walthamforest #SixToFix #libdems #votelibdem #localelections

Labour councillors in Grove Green missing in action - again!! We have traffic chaos in our neighbourhood with this and other road closures following serious incident on Wednesday night. Well done to @arranangus.bsky.social for stepping up

With no action from Grove Green’s 3 Labour councillors, Lib Dem activist @arranangus.bsky.social has stepped in, liaising with gas workers on Grove Green Road & pushing Waltham Forest Council to arrange a special bin collection for residents whose bins were missed due to the #roadworks.

🔶Higham Hill councillor candidate Alex Marshall-Lewis puts the spotlight on an area between Shaw Square & Millfield Avenue, E17, that is plagued with littering & dumping, explaining how Lib Dems would combat these #flytipping hotspots if elected.🔶 #SixToFix #Environment #HighamHill #VoteLibDem

Did you know… Labour-run Waltham Forest is just *247th out of 321 councils in England for #recycling. Improving recycling and bin collections across the borough are one of Waltham Forest Liberal Democrat’s ’ #SixToFix Local Election pledges. 1/2

This water has been pouring out of this council block for three weeks now. Lambeth council say it will be another month until they can fix it! It is completely mad that people are kept awake at night and huge amounts of water are wasted because the council can't get their act together.

Waltham Forest Lib Dems chair @libdemalex86.bsky.social on why we can’t trust anything Labour says! Council Leader Grace Williams promised a fair deal for Waltham Forest if a Labour government was voted in. Instead, we’ve got more cuts & need an emergency bailout! Waltham Forest deserves better!

For #LGBTQ History Month @arranangus.bsky.social , an activist with Waltham Forest Lib Dems, highlights the demise of LGBTQ+ spaces in London. More than half such venues have closed since 2006, including in our borough, meaning fewer safer spaces and less inclusivity. What are your experiences?

So much hope. So much sadness. #AsOne

Planning to travel on the Central Line this weekend? There are line closures and service changes, “so if you have a journey to make, leave enough time” says Waltham Forest Lib Dem activist @arranangus.bsky.social . #leyton #centralline #travelupdate #arranangus

Our WF Lib Dem activist @arranangus.bsky.social reports a big water leak on the corner of Francis Road & Warren Road, Leyton E10. It’s been like this for 3 days, but Thames Water hasn’t sent anyone to investigate let alone fix it!! Let us know if you’re experiencing similar in your neighbourhood.

A (slightly belated) enormous thanks to Sutton's Royal Mail delivery office for giving me a tour of their amazing sorting operation - particularly at the busiest time of year!

Layla Moran MP is a spot on. 👏👏👏 It’s way past time to GET PR DONE to MAKE VOTES MATTER ‘Make seats Match Votes’ #getPRdone #MakeVotesMatter #FairVotes #ProportionalRepresentation

Labour council candidate defects to Lib Dems over ‘toxic culture’ at local level’ #LibDems 🔶 harrowonline.org/2025/12/05/l...

Great to meet Sue Bill from the charity PROMISEworks today. ✅ It was useful to talk with Sue about local issues, and how their mentors can support our young people. I now look forward to working with Sue to grow a network of mentors in West Somerset. Find out more here 👇 promiseworks.org.uk

This was a hopeless budget.

It was great to meet Shannon from Preston School this week, during Parliament Week, for an interview for their school newspaper. It is brilliant to see young people taking such an interest in democracy. I am looking forward to seeing the paper when it goes to print on Monday.

Last night, I am proud that our party defeated @Nigel_Farage & stood up against his latest attempt to drag our country away from its proud tradition of #freedom, #fairness and #justice. #LibDems

@libdems.org.uk across #London are backing #Kamran4VP @hinabokharild.bsky.social @meralhusseinece.bsky.social @christinecheng.bsky.social

It is glorious to see Twickenham filled to the rafters for the Women's Rugby World Cup Good luck England

From Butch Cassidy to All the Presidents Men via the Sting Robert Redford was a titan among actors. 'The futures all yours, you lousy bicycle'

While I disagree profoundly with Charlie Kirk I would not want him killed I feel for his family and what they are going through I do find my self angered by the hypocrisy of the right wing, both here and in the USA. In the last 72 hours there have been 45 deaths across the US caused by gunfire

“Liverpool is a traditional Labour heartland but in January lost its first local authority by-election there in 27 years to the Lib Dems” It’s also the only party to potentially have sufficient seats at the next GE to put a line through #Brexit to reboost the economy. news.sky.com/story/lib-de...

What an amazing defencive tackle by the Scots. Covered a huge amount of ground and stopped the Fijian player just before the try line #AsOne

It's good to hear from @carlcashman.bsky.social in this @skynewsrss.bsky.social article. He has long advocated for Liberal representation in Liverpool and other (Labour) urban areas for some time now. I would love to see more wins for the #Libdems like the recent one in West Hampstead in London.

This is a great game between Scotland and Fiji. And not just because Scotland are winning. #AsOne

West Hampstead (Camden) Council By-Election Result: 🔶 LDM: 54.4% (+15.4) 🌹 LAB: 21.2% (-23.4) 🌳 CON: 10.3% (-6.3) ➡️ RFM: 7.2% (New) 🌍 GRN: 7.0% (New) Liberal Democrat GAIN from Labour. Changes w/ 2022.

The fact that Reform were trying to run a person who had been dead for six months as their Croydon Mayoral candidate is proof if it were needed that they are not a serious party. It demonstrates abject incompetence and no vetting as well as utter contempt for the electorate.

Lib Dems urge Labour not to ‘turn their back’ on London amidst proposed council funding cuts

We must get online safety right! Lord Clement Jones and I have written a letter to the Secretary of State regarding our concerns about the implementation of the Online Safety Act, calling for a cross-party committee from both Houses of Parliament to ensure effective implementation.
