📝Yesterday I submitted my petition demanding the removal of the 9:30am start time for disabled bus passes. ❌Disabilities don’t start at 9:30am & neither should disabled bus passes. 🤝Thanks to organisations supporting this campaign. Together, we’ll break down these barriers!

We’ve questioned the Council’s plans for our parks and allotments from the outset. It’s time to come clear.

I can’t believe @NewcastleLibDem just voted down @NCLGreenParty’s friendly amendment on their welfare bill motion, that sought to add a requirement for council leaders to meet with local disability groups, simply because our amendment mentioned the *option* of a wealth tax.

Newcastle’s Labour council is trying bankrupt well regarded local small businesses with punitive rent rises. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Pleased to be able to speak to support the Lib Dem motion on social care and carers this evening - and particularly pleased to be able to commend the inspirational work of my constituent Janice and @kinshipcharity for kinship carers locally and nationally.

This is damning evidence of the scale of social inertia in parts of our city. It is not simply about disadvantage and poverty (see the East Ham data) but is a lot to do with the failure of the region's political leadership to insist on a NE version of en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Ch…

Lib Dems are standing up for the North East on sewage dumping. From our local efforts to challenge the state of the Ouseburn to national representations in Parliament, only @LibDems are serious about tackling this scandal.
Liberal Democrats@LibDems

Since KKR bought into Northumbrian Water, bills have soared and raw sewage has flooded the Whitburn coast. Now they're set to buy Thames Water. Can the Prime Minister guarantee they won’t hike bills and dump sewage again? @EdwardJDavey

Ugh... ☹️ UK #GDP fell by 0.1% for the second month running in October - and remember this was before the #Budget announcements! Biggest fall was in production (incl. manufacturing - hit by global weakness), but construction also down and services flat. (More to follow...)

An honour and a privilege to represent the residents of Ouseburn Ward at tonight's Christmas Tree Switch On. Fantastic to see so many people attending what is a lovely event. Especially nice to hear the idea of reinstating the ferry to Bergen get a big round of applause!

A consequential @newcastlecc Cabinet meeting tonight. Hard to escape the conclusion that the decision to end post 16 SEN transport “to generate budget savings” and the council stepping in to take over Urban Green as it teeters on the edge of insolvency are weirdly connected.
