Thank you @PaulKohlerSW19 for backing the cancer communities’ calls for a national cancer strategy in parliament yesterday, and highlighting the need to improve uptake of breast screening to increase early diagnosis and better outcomes.

If you look to the US in despair - if you believe in progressive solutions, open government, and a focus on supporting the individual - join us libdems.org.uk/join

We’re told Merton Council: “Will put residents at the heart of everything we do, and be responsive and resident-centric in our approach ... ”. Later this month, councillors will debate whether it does! Let us know your experience- good and bad digitallibdems.typeform.com/to/Wo4HE8eN?em…

Great morning out with @PaulKohlerSW19 and Wimbledon Park councillors - discussing everything from missing street trees to Gaza, the playground in Wimbledon Park and street lights!

I am very pleased that today TfL announced that Morden Station has been shortlisted for new toilet provision following community pressure including the @mertonlibdem petition presented to the Assembly in December last year. tinyurl.com/4adnmz92

When accessibility isn't prioritised, this can be the reality of being deaf at school 💔 #WaterlooRoad #Drama #DeafAwareness #DeafEducation #DeafCommunity #SignLanguage #Learning #HearingImpaired #BSL Details of support for some of the issues raised in this video are available…

Hi @Lord_Sugar, I’m a blind person. I can’t believe I’m having to say this, but disabilities aren't gimmicks. Having disability representation on @BBCStrictly makes people like me feel seen. It shows what we can do, not what we can’t do. There’s nothing gimmicky about that.

I don't know when Strictly come dancing are going to run out of contestant gimmicks. I would not be surprised if they had a AI mechanical robot next year. @bbcstrictly

Hello @berlinairport My name is Halli. I use a wheelchair. My plane landed at your airport earlier today. Here's the TLDR: The experience was terrible. The good news though is that this is very easy to fix, and I think you can even save some money. ---- Here' the blow by…

There’s around 80,000 profoundly deaf people in London. So this #InternationalWeekoftheDeaf I learnt some words in British Sign Language. Our city must be accessible for all which is why I’m so glad we passed this motion.👇🏽 @InclusionLondon london.gov.uk/motions/disabi…

My inbox is jammed full of disabled folk, many from the mental health community, terrified and thrown into increased despair and worthlessness due to Labour’s refusal to front-end validation and basic human rights. This is not what positive change looks like @Keir_Starmer

Wheelchair users need to live in houses too & like to visit friends & family. But do forgive me, I forgot that I am but a lowly cripple and am only entitled to access the places which the ableds deem I am worthy of, which doesn't include a comfortable, safe, accessible home 🙃

New private homes shouldn't have to be wheelchair accessible. Many of the most attractive homes in the country have steps up to the front door, allowing for basements with generous natural light. Building regulations effectively ban building like this any more.

Following the damage to their Plough Lane home and the likely scenario of fan-owned AFC Wimbledon having to play their games elsewhere for a few months, fans have set up a crowdfunder to help the club get through this devastating scenario. Fair play. 👏 justgiving.com/crowdfunding/g…

I hope it’s not as bad as it looks but if ⁦@AFCWimbledon⁩ need help fulfilling their home fixtures over the next few weeks I hope @CPFC will offer them Selhurst Park. standard.co.uk/sport/football…

A compelling evidence-based rebuttal of the false ‘illegal immigrant’ (sic) narrative of far too many politicians. Thank you @timfarron👏

Tim Farron: "The unpleasantness about this debate is only matched by the lack of proper information" Absolutely brilliant 👇

The @LondonLibDems have been supporting the resident led local campaign group @SaveWimbldnPark & recently presented the Mayor of London their petition against AELTC plans. We urge the Deputy Mayor to focus on the negative environmental impact this development will have. 👇🏽

🔶A truly horrific condition for woman to endure with up to 60 week wait times in Merton - that’s why @MertonLibDems we’ve pushed Women’s Gynaecology up the Agenda @Merton_Council Healthier Communities Overview & Scrutiny Panel - we need to see more community provision!

Holly’s been in and out of hospital with endometriosis for two decades. She’s had ten surgeries since she was 14 - including a hysterectomy - and still expects to have more.
