We’ve repeatedly said we should raise revenue in a fairer way—by going after companies making billions in profits, who can afford to pay a bit more to help restore our public services. At the same time, we need to grow the economy and negotiate our EU trade deal. Daisy Cooper MP #bbcqt

"People wanted change from this government and what we've seen is a continuation of the mistakes that were made previously." @calummillerld.bsky.social

The #LibDems have a clear plan to fix #Oxfordshire’s roads, with a record £59 million budgeted to tackle years of neglect under Conservative rule. It’s such a strong plan that the Conservatives couldn’t even bring themselves to oppose it in a recent council meeting.

It was wonderful to welcome #LibDem MP for Bicester & Woodstock @calummillerld.bsky.social to Hanwell to meet villagers today! Calum is a well-respected county councillor and was elected as MP in July last year and is already making a real difference!

It’s not just embarrassing—it’s downright alarming. Our #PrimeMinister, Sir Keir #Starmer, is bowing to Donald #Trump, a man who shamelessly spreads lies, calls #Ukraine’s president a dictator, and aligns himself with #Russia and #NorthKorea. Image: Getty Images.

For three years, the brave Ukrainian people have heroically defended their country against Putin’s war machine. Now, more than ever, we must stand firmly in support of our Ukrainian friends, resist Trump's stitch up with Putin and work with our European neighbours to defend freedom and democracy.

This isn't just a #pothole - it's a #Tory pothole. Now available nationally thanks to the #Tories cutting of public funding

A fantastic evening at Wroxton Abbey tonight launching my #LibDem campaign with this amazing group of supporters here in the Cropredy & Hook Norton Division. 💛 A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and to Fairleigh Dickinson University Wroxton College for being such wonderful hosts.

Great news! The Liberal Democrat-led 🔶 budget passed by OCC today means more investment in fixing our roads, improving public transport, tackling flooding, and boosting public services. The Conservatives... well they voted against it—pushing for cuts instead - they love creating potholes! 🥴

Thank you for all the hello's in Hooky this weekend! Great to meet so many villagers! #Hooky #HookNorton

Here's a round up on some of the work completed last month.

It's #TimeToTalk Day. A day to focus us all to pause and think about our own mental health and others around us. 💛 #Banbury #Bicester #Oxfordshire

It's been a real pleasure speaking with so many villagers today here in #HookNorton! I plan to speak to as many people as I can in the run up to May's local election 👍🏽 Get in touch to lend your support Complete our Hooky residents survey here www.oxonld.uk/hook-norton

#politicslive Labour - We need to build to protect nature!?

Tomorrow is Holocaust Memorial Day - a time when we seek to learn the lessons of the past and recognise that genocide does not just take place on its own – it’s a steady process which can begin if discrimination, racism, homophobia and hatred are not checked and prevented.

Since you elected me as your district councillor last May, I’ve spent a lot of time speaking with local residents, listening to your thoughts, concerns, and aspirations for our area.

Thank God America

Why Donald Trump's second presidency means UK needs customs union with EU

No surprise seeing Boris Johnson at Trump's inauguration today. Says it all really.

"Forming a Customs Union with the EU is the biggest thing we can do to turbocharge our economy long-term." "But an agreement to work towards one would unlock big economic benefits for the UK now and start tearing down those damaging Conservative trade barriers this year." @eddavey.libdems.org.uk

Tune into BBC1 after the News at 10 or live on BBC iPlayer from 9pm to catch @calummillerld.bsky.social on tonight's BBC Question Time!

'Today I'm calling on the government to negotiate a brand new deal with the EU.' Ed Davey urges the government to join a customs union with the EU to 'Trump-proof' our economy.

Liberal Democrats have long called for a cross-party consensus on social care. But the work shouldn't wait for another 3 year review. There are changes we can make now, today. We cannot fix our NHS if we don't fix social care first. @calummillerld.bsky.social

This dangerous and irresponsible rhetoric is further proof that the UK can’t rely on the Trump administration. It’s in our national interest to rebuild trade and security ties with our allies in Europe.

People have had enough of Elon Musk interfering with our country’s democracy when he clearly knows nothing about Britain. It’s time to summon the US ambassador to ask why an incoming US official is suggesting the UK government should be overthrown.

#EdDavey approval ratings remain 'ding dong merry on' high! @libdems.org.uk

Yesterday afternoon, I had the privilege of spending time in #Banbury with members of Cherwell District Council's award-winning team. This incredible group works tirelessly year-round to support rough sleepers and ensure our streets and neighborhoods remain safe.

Today, I visited the A361 near Wardington to check on the progress of the repairs. While the road was initially expected to remain closed for several months, I’m delighted to share that Oxfordshire County Council has acted quickly to organise the works, and the road will be reopening very soon!

At yesterday's Executive Meeting, we approved the Proposed Cherwell Local Plan 2042 for consultation. When finalised, the Plan will help ensure that new homes, places of work & infrastructure are built in the right places #LibDem Council Leader Cllr David Hingley with Cllr Jean Conway (Planning)

Flooding this week in #Oxfordshire has been worsened by Thames Water discharging sewage into rivers in more than 50 locations around the county Thank you Oxford Mail for bringing this story back into conversation, highlighted by @freddievanmierlomp.bsky.social and I.

Nobody should be scared to swim in their local bathing spots for fear of getting ill from sewage. It's time to abolish Ofwat and bring in a real regulator with real teeth to clamp down on this disgraced industry.

Today, Ed Davey called on the Prime Minister to protect hospices from the national insurance rise and improve access to high-quality end-of-life care.

It's already a challenge dealing with flooding, but now #ThamesWater is also discharging raw sewage in Cropredy, making the situation even worse And it’s not just Cropredy—this is happening across Oxfordshire, including Horley, Hanwell, Shutford, Banbury, Bloxham, and Hook Norton. The list goes on

“Coercive control is a criminal offence, but is often overlooked, despite research suggesting it is the third highest risk factor in domestic homicide.” On #WhiteRibbonDay, Monica Harding has highlighted the essential assessments needed around the policing of domestic violence.

Also such a shame that once again Banbury’s Mill Arts Centre has been flooded again. I’m proud to be a trustee of this wonderful organisation so see the work that goes into making it such an important part of Banbury’s cultural make up. (Credit to Banburyshire-360 for the great drone shots!)

Absolutely gutted to see the damage done today at Banbury Utd’s ground today. I know how hard the team work to get the pitch match ready each week so this is such a shame for them.

Farmers are facing incredibly challenging times, playing a vital role in combating climate change, revitalising our countryside, and ensuring we have high-quality food on our tables.

Good to be out with Save the Horton team this afternoon representing Cllr David Hingley, Leader of Cherwell District Council See more about "Bring Births Back to #Banbury" on Banbury Guardian and Banbury FM #Oxfordshire @bbcoxford.bsky.social
