So many people love The Hurst & enjoy the incredible views. It’s an SSSI which Cumnor Parish Council (CPC) via the Conservation Group have managed for years. All Souls want to sell it. CPC urgently need to fundraise £50k to buy it. Spread the word! @LaylaMoran @emilysmithLD
Oxford Clarion@OxfordClarion

Cumnor Parish Council is fundraising to buy Cumnor Hurst, after All Souls announced the end of its lease to the Parish Council, who say the college wishes to sell on the open market which may mean loss of access to the Site of Special Scientific Interest. cumnorparishcouncil.org.uk/save-our-cumno…

Thames Water saw pollution incidents increase 40% in 6 months last year. They've been issued with fines, but nothing changes. We need regulation with proper teeth. That's why I support @LibDems proposal to put water companies in special measures when they miss pollution targets.

Thank you Rail Minister Lord Hendy for meeting me today, to hear the case for a railway station at Grove, more coaches for GWR intercity trains, and Didcot-Oxford electrification. He was supportive, but highlighted the challenge of value for money in capital investment.

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

The impact on UK food production as a result of today's budget is a very real worry. More than ever before we should be investing in local production of healthy food, food security, and supporting small businesses and rural communities @LibDemsOxon @teamSVBS @libdemlocalgov
Helen Morgan MP 🔶@HelenMorganMP

Today’s budget has been nothing short of awful for farmers and food security. Only the Lib Dems are fighting for our farming communities.

A few positives in the Budget today, but not much for local councils services... a fraction of what's needed for potholes, a fraction of what's needed for SEND, and still no long term fair funding settlement to enable councils to plan services more efficiently @LibDemsOxon
LGA Lib Dems@libdemlocalgov

LGA Lib Dem Group Leader @joeharrispark with his initial response to the budget. “When it comes to local government it’s a case of meet the new boss, same as the old boss. Austerity remains alive and well.”

Glad to see the new boss working with @timfarron to raise the needs of rural communities in the run up to the budget. Rural busses, local food production, sewage and the the impact of short-term let's on housing supply are huge challenges for #Oxfordshire @LibDemsOxon
Olly Glover MP 🔶@OllyGloverLD

I've joined fellow @libdems MP in signing @timfarron's letter to the Chancellor calling for greater support for our rural communities in her #budget Vital services need to be protected for families and businesses.
