Cllr Andrew Brown 🔶🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦

Published and promoted by C. Allard on behalf of Andrew Brown (Liberal Democrats) at 26 Chantry Road, Bristol BS8 2QD.

Councillor Tony Dyer, Leader of Bristol City Council, said: "Everyone, regardless of their role, background or beliefs, deserves to feel safe in their workplace and in public spaces." Read his full statement below:

Aggression is not activism, and tactics designed to intimidate politicians have no place in our society.

Have you had your say yet? The consultation on @NorthSomersetC joining the West of England Mayoral Combined Authority is now live. You have until 10 April to give your views on the proposals for expansion

Lib Dem Cllr Andrew Brown: "If we remove this funding from the Cascade Steps landing stage today, we face a real risk that this will end up being closed for health and safety reasons, disadvantaging residents, visitors and businesses alike." #ldreporter

Taking no lectures on standards in public life from you of all people, sunshine.

Keir Starmer should condemn Trump’s illegal action in Venezuela. Maduro is a brutal and illegitimate dictator, but unlawful attacks like this make us all less safe. Trump is giving a green light to the likes of Putin and Xi to attack other countries with impunity.

I'm obviously on Santa's Nice List this year... ...the MHCLG has just given me an NPPF consultation for Christmas! 🥳

Marketing email received today: "If you haven't quite finished your Christmas Shopping"... ...it's December 5th!

@StephenWi11iams From the Red Book: "Local authorities will collect this revenue on behalf of central government and will be fully compensated for the additional costs of administering this new tax."

Rise in council tax for houses worth more than £2million - will local councils get all the benefit or will the Treasury find a way to claw it all back into national budgets?

I've ended up with other engagements meaning I won't be able to watch the budget tomorrow... ...but given how much as been briefed tonight, there's probably no need to watch!

🎉 Success! The Government has finally listened to our campaign to introduce visitor levy powers in England. However, it's crucial that the money raised is not kept in the Mayor's coffers. It must be spent in our local communities to make Bristol a better place to visit and live

@char1iewatts They sold the high street stores - those are the ones that rebranded - and retained the "travel" business - e.g. rail station and airport shops... that's the bit that that's in trouble, despite it previously being regarded as the profitable bit of the company!

Should’ve quit after changing the name to the abysmal TJ Jones tbh

A trip to the pub or fish and chips on a Friday shouldn't be an unaffordable luxury for hard-working people. Our plans to cut VAT on hospitality and energy bills for households would put £270 back into your pockets. ⬇️

The transfer window is open at City Hall...

One for my Lib Dem friends and followers - I'm standing for Federal Council in the internal elections - ballots due to land tomorrow. Manifesto below, please consider a first/high preference

@ChopsyBristol Not sure why that's not linking to the story. Can you get prescription redirected? My surgery gave me a choice of preferred pharmacies for any prescriptions.

@andrewbrownld The GP shouldn’t be sending the prescriptions there then. I’m waiting in the health centre but I know I’m going to get sent away when I need it urgently. Like last Friday

Absolutely ridiculous now. Just say the pharmacy has closed down. Pricks

@ChopsyBristol Jhoots Pharmacies could lose NHS rights, MPs told - BBC News

Following today's shocking attack on a synagogue in Manchester, Councillor Tony Dyer, Leader of Bristol City Council, has shared the following message with communities across our city.

Liberal Democrats cannot support mandatory digital IDs. People shouldn't be criminalised just because they don't want to hand over their private data.
