Birmingham Liberal Democrats

Birmingham City Council under the leadership of #LiberalDemocrat Council Leader, Cllr Roger Harmer, has reached a major milestone in delivering the government's flagship Pride in Place Programme, aimed to make a lasting difference for our residents in #Birmingham ✅ Link in the comments below 👇

Today we marked the 25th anniversary of the Birmingham Faith Leaders Group with an interfaith service for peace, coming together in reflection and prayer for peace in our city & across the world🙏 The city's faith leaders were joined by the Lord Mayor Cllr Choudhry and other distinguished guests.

Birmingham City Council has written to the government following the announcement of 4,000 potential job losses at JLR, urging Government to work closely with industry and regional partners to ensure that JLR and its supply chain have the support needed. More 👉 www.birmingham.gov.uk/news/article...

Businesses are struggling. You have a country where 99% of businesses are SMEs but the government has no growth agenda. The Government must focus on lowering taxes and allowing companies to employ more people to support our economy. Edward Morello MP

Farage has always behaved as though the rules apply to everyone but him. These allegations against Reform look like the latest example. Lib Dem Cabinet Office spokesperson @lisasmartmp.bsky.social has written to the police and the electoral commission asking them to investigate.

This is serious. If Reform blatantly, intentionally and knowingly broke election law, they should be held fully accountable. Liberal Democrats have asked the Police and the Electoral Commission to investigate.

Three senior Reform figures were involved in those Channel 4 revelations we saw last night. Two have been kicked out. The third is Nigel Farage. Farage should be suspended while this matter is investigated. He has very serious questions to answer.

#Birmingham Council Leader, #LibDem Cllr Roger Harmer: “The process we need to go through is to get a deal arranged, that has to go through various checks, when that has happened, we will take it to cabinet, if they approve it, and Unite approve it, then we have a deal,” #brum #brumlife #council

British Polling Council say its rules were broken by the JL Partners polls featuring in the Channel 4 story last night.

Liberal Democrats have a plan that would finally end the #smallboats crisis: a pact with every EU country that will allow us to return people who come over the Channel. It's time to take away the major pull factor that Farage and co-created and destroy the business model of the criminal gangs.

👏 Congratulations to everyone receiving their #GCSE results today, in #Birmingham and beyond! You’ve worked incredibly hard and should be proud of how far you’ve come. Whatever your results, there’s so much still ahead.

#England  🦁🦁🦁 Congratulations from #Birmingham lads 👏 Thank you for the best finish since 1966 and for showing the best leadership and values! Sadly, FIFA is not. Going forward, we need transparency, accountability, and a focus on fans over profit ⚽️ #worldcup #worldcup2026

"FIFA is really beyond the pale now in terms of corruption." Munira Wilson breaks down why we are calling on the FA and UEFA to withdraw from FIFA, demanding transparency, accountability, and a focus on fans over profit. 👇

The rot at FIFA has gone too far. Under Infantino, political greed has completely broken the game we love. We can't just watch from the sidelines anymore, the FA and our European partners need to walk away and build a fair, clean alternative from scratch. It’s time to move on.

Successful #Birmingham Liberal Democrats’ Council Motion at July’s Full Council: ✅ Supported Exempt Accomodation needs fixing. It needs to start being managed well! #Brum #housing #council #ASB #Councillor #LibDems #LibDem @rhbhm.bsky.social @izzyknowles.bsky.social @assoclibdemcllrs.bsky.social
