Solihull Lib Dems

The Government’s Health Bill doesn’t fix the problems patients actually face. Too many people still can’t get a GP appointment, A&E waits are rising, and social care is in crisis - yet the focus is on shuffling responsibility around Whitehall and centralising power, not on frontline care.

We are proud to celebrate Pride Month with Solihull's LGBTQ+ community and celebrate progress in LGBTQ+ equality and the achievements of LGBQT+ people. #Solihull #lgbtqcommunity🏳️‍🌈 #pride🌈 #pridemonth2026🌈❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Merry Christmas and Best Wishes for 2026 from all of us at Solihull Lib Dems! #Solihull #Christmas

🎄Christmas Greetings 🎄 from Cllr Kathryn Thomas, Paul McCabe and Cllr Ade Adeyemo. Wishing you a Happy Christmas and the best for the New Year. #Lyndon #Solihull @kathryntld.bsky.social @solihullpaul.bsky.social @solihullld.bsky.social #LibDems #MerryChristmas

This Remembrance Sunday, we remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice. We must never forget them — nor can we forget the veterans and serving personnel who continue to protect our freedom.

On Remembrance Sunday, we come together to honour all who served our country and gave their lives for our freedoms. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten. We remember those who fell, and those who came home forever changed by their service.

We just defeated Nigel Farage’s Bill in Parliament to tear up people’s rights and withdraw from the ECHR. Farage wants to do away with the Britain Churchill built and turn it into a version of Trump's America. We stopped him.

Lib Dems MPs heckle Nigel Farage as he presents ECHR bill - and Ed Davey floors him www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

Speeding - Cllr Adeyemo asks why Church Hill Road is a 'Special Case' for traffic safety improvements when roads with worse statistics have never had such preferential treatment? @solihullcouncil.bsky.social @kathryntld.bsky.social @solihullld.bsky.social #Solihull #LibDems youtu.be/LDdalgb6SzA

Our monthly Olton councillors advice surgery is taking place this Saturday 11th October from 10-11:30am at the Happy Heart Cafe on Richmond Road. No appointment required. @jamesjbradley.uk @olton-mike.bsky.social @sarahphipps.bsky.social #Olton #Solihull

No one should be stuck in the awful position of waiting months on end for mental health services. It's time to supercharge mental health care in this country.

Councillor Kathryn Thomas presented her fireworks motion last night in Full Council. There was cross-party support for the motion with councillors from all parties speaking in support. @kathryntld.bsky.social @solihullld.bsky.social #Solihull #LibDems #Fireworks

Liberal Democrat Leader Sir Ed Davey MP has announced a new, expanded frontbench team. As part of the changes, new spokesperson roles for migration, schools, cancer care, rural affairs and a Shadow Chief Secretary to the Treasury have been created.

Lib Dem motion to @solihullcouncil.bsky.social calling for Local Control Zones to reduce fireworks nuisance in residential areas will be debated on Tuesday 7th October. @kathryntld.bsky.social #Fireworks #Solihull #LibDems @birminghamlive.bsky.social www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/midland...

Shana Tova! Wishing all of our Jewish friends a happy and sweet Rosh Hashanah. #roshhashanah #happyjewishnewyear #solihull

The optics are really bad, but it’s important that we hear from the Parliamentary Standards Commissioner or from Dr Shastri-Hurst himself. #Solihull

My council are making our lollipop lady redundant who has been working the same patch for over 20 years. Instead, they are planning to put 2 zebra crossings within 100m of each other. She's heartbroken and it's going to cause traffic chaos. @solihullgreens.bsky.social @solihullld.bsky.social

Until 2000, the Armed Forces had a ban on LGBT personnel, who could be discharged or face criminal prosecution. Jess Brown-Fuller has won action from the Government to speed up compensation for LGBT veterans who lost their jobs and were stripped of their pensions.

Watch @EdDavey.LibDems.org.uk call out the BBC for their failure to hold Nigel Farage to account.

Tying ourselves ever more to fossil fuels would only benefit foreign dictators like Vladimir Putin – which is probably why Farage is so keen on it. Investing in green energy will cut bills and grow our economy.

Most people in Solihull are blissfully unaware of the damage that sewage dumping is doing to our rivers, waterways and our environment. After all, we are nowhere near the sea and there are no major rivers in #Solihull. #Sewage #SewageCrisis @theriverstrust.bsky.social #LibDems

'Disgust' at comments made by Conservative councillor at children's scrutiny board meeting. www.solihull-libdems.org.uk/conservative... @solihullcouncil.bsky.social @cllrade.bsky.social #Solihull #LibDems #Children #Scrutiny

Lib Dems expose massive scale of sewage dumping in Solihull. "Shocking statistics" reveal 451 sewage spills, totalling 4,384 hours. @cllrade.bsky.social #sewage #solihull www.solihull-libdems.org.uk/sewage-dumpi...

Today's announcement is a good first step. Now the government must go further by auto-enrolling eligible children and tackling the cost of uniforms. Liberal Democrats will hold their feet to the fire. @munirawilson.bsky.social‬

Greetings to all Muslims and everyone who is celebrating Eid al-Adha on Friday 6th June. Best wishes also to those who are in Makkah for Hajj. Eid al-Adha Mubarak! 🤲🏾🕋 @solihullld.bsky.social #Solihull #LibDems #Hajj #EidMubarak

When are service reductions not 'cuts' and when is a government bail out 'not a loan'? Challenging #Solihull Conservatives on cuts to council services and £48.273M government 'EFS' bail out. @solihullld.bsky.social @solihullcouncil.bsky.social #LibDems #EFS #Cuts youtu.be/RoC-r-fA5oE

"The best Mayor of Solihull I can remember". My vote of thanks to the outgoing Mayor of Solihull, Councillor Shahin Ashraf MBE. @solihullcouncil.bsky.social @solihullgreens.bsky.social @solihullld.bsky.social #Mayor #MadamMayor youtu.be/sj6AAvLXGOY

Send him victorious! Rendition of the National Anthem after the Mayor of Solihull lit the beacon in Elmdon Park for VE Day 2025. @solihullcouncil.bsky.social #Elmdon #ElmdonPark #Solihull #VEDay

Communities across the UK came together today to mark VE Day and remember those who served and sacrificed. Their bravery secured our freedom and helped shape a better world.

"Parliament needs to have a say, to be able to scrutinise this deal and see what the implications are and to have some reassurance that Donald Trump will actually stick to it." @calummillerld.bsky.social #bbcqt

Its vital we take climate change seriously and work hard together to tackle it and reach Net Zero. @calummillerld.bsky.social #bbcqt

"The government's got to publish this deal and allow MPs to scrutinise it and vote on it." @eddavey.libdems.org.uk

Doris from Kent says keep tabs on your postal voter turn out. Only 9 days to polling day.

Sad news today about Pope Francis. Whilst by no means perfect, he was a man of the people. A champion for the poorest and the most oppressed. Another leader lost to the world. #RIP #PopeFrancis

To everyone celebrating across England. From Devon to Durham, Kent to Kendal, Lincolnshire to Lancashire. Happy St George's Day! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🐉

With millions of others across the world I mourn the loss of a wonderful religious leader. Whether of faith or not, Pope Francis was an inspiration and an example for how to create a humane society.
