Peterborough Lib Dems

On the controversial item of Ken Stimpson Academisation which includes the fencing of the Werrington Fields, the Liberal Democrats have submitted an amendment that seeks to listen to local concerns and reduce the size of the area enfenced from all of C to just C1.

We understand that there are only 9 questions submitted for full council this week - 3 from members of the public and 6 from councillors (all of which are Liberal Democrats)

With Labour having the largest majority in the 21st century and yet with the lowest percentage of the vote for any government for over 100 years, first past the post is looking even less democratic.

Maybe @andrewpakes_ could get government to fairly fund Peterborough City Council by reversing the Tories austerity cuts? Something @paulbristow79 (Ghost of Xmas Past) was unable to do when he had the seat.

@nigelpauley @johnelworthy Maybe @paulbristow79 will throw his hat in the ring and displace @WayneFitzgerald from being the @Conservatives candidate?

@johnelworthy If Lil Wayne becomes mayor the rest of the county might beat Peterborough to it …

Can someone please tell the former adviser/gofer/ to @paulbristow79 which county Peterborough is in? The most insane tweet of the day - and there's been some tough competition

Sorry Rishi…Yellow Hammer 2 is go!

Caring isn't just Ed's story, it's the story of millions, caring for each other, dealing with tough times, and keeping going with love. The Liberal Democrats will be the voice of carers every day, fighting their corner in Parliament.

The Yellow Hammer is coming, first stop Cambridgeshire

Congratulations to Cllr Christian Hogg confirmed as group leader for another year, along side him is Cllr Chris Wiggin confirmed as deputy leader and Cllr Jade Seager as group secretary. Nick Sandford will remain as Group Chair.

Good luck to @clrnicksandford and all our candidates this year!

Reasons not to vote Conservative this May - They played fast and loose with our money in pursuit of a quick profit and ended up having their fingers burned. Can we really afford to give them back control of our city's finances?

@johnelworthy @paulbristow79 @peterboroughtel The conservatives were in charge for the last 23years and this space has been empty for most of that. Peterborough First took over 6 months ago and he's only just noticed this space? Can Peterborough afford to give control back to the Tories?

Are you seriously going to blame 'the council' for every empty space across the entire city @paulbristow79 ? Or just prepping your next column @peterboroughtel ?

@PoliticsPboro @paulbristow79 Is he joining @Darren_Fower in a life after politics on the buses?

What's that, we haven't had a #Politiciansinhighviz for a while? Let's fix that, with Peterborough MP @paulbristow79 on a visit to Stagecoach bus depot.

Wishing Muslims celebrating in the UK and beyond a wonderful, blessed and happy Eid ul Fitr. Eid Mubarak!

Celebrating International Women's Day - thank you Cllr Sandra Bond and Cllr Jade Seager for all you do for our council group and the residents that you represent.

'SOS M&S': Politicians and civic leaders met outside Peterborough's stunning cathedral this morning to call on retailer to stay in the city centre Council leader Mohammed Farooq says talks with the company are ongoing

@WHSmith is being criticised for their new branding being too similar to the NHS brand. The real kicker though is that you have more chance of seeing a doctor in WHS. #brokenNHS
