After the latest Mandelson revelations, Starmer needs to get a good lawyer. Wasn’t he supposed to be one? | Jonathan Freedland If only the PM had been the process-obsessed technocrat he was once painted as, this disaster wouldn’t have happened – and he wouldn’t be on the brink, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Freedland

There is a special place in hell for the landlords issuing section 21 notices to secure tenants ahead of the Renters Right Act becoming law on April 30. I’ll do everything in my power to stop this happening to people across #Bermondsey It’s shameless and shameful.

I’m truly shocked at the UK’s potholes - seems I’m not alone! IAM RoadSmart’s director of policy, Nicholas Lyes, said: “….We need a long-term approach that invests in proper surface maintenance, rather than the all too often ‘patch and dash’ repairs that crumble at the first sign of bad weather.”

Very useful to attend the #Southwark Homeowners Conference 2026. Leaseholders are beyond frustrated, many are furious.

It’s an excellent forum for knowledge sharing & collaboration, plus pushing for real solutions to the mess many leaseholders face here.

Hats off to the organising team.

The updates from national campaigners, local activists and legal experts on leasehold reform have been particularly interesting and valuable. As a leaseholder myself, I’m fully on board with the need to replace this arcane feudalistic nightmare with a much fairer system.

My colleagues Cllr Maria Linforth-Hall & Francesco Guerrieri represented the @southwarklibdems.bsky.social group from the start of the event 🔶 They’re both excellent campaigners for leaseholders & on other housing matters. Proud to work alongside them.

Phone snatching is an epidemic across London - but Southwark hosts some of the worst hotspots in the capital.

Liberal Democrats have a plan to tackle crime and ASB in Southwark - double community safety wardens, invest in CCTV, and give our young people more opportunities.

The right to a fair trial is one of our most fundamental freedoms. I’m deeply concerned by the Labour government’s plans to curtail it. It was not in Labour’s 2024 manifesto & is the wrong way to tackle court backlogs. The LibDems will always stand up for civil liberties.

In Southwark, diversity is our strength.

We are not an "island of strangers" as Keir Starmer claims, and we will not let Reform divide us.

Southwark Liberal Democrats are proud to have a team from all over the globe who call Southwark their home!

The last thing the UK needs just now is Tony Blair’s advice on whether to trust a US President about a Middle East war. We know how that White House movie ended.

Women are natural community leaders. Yet their representation in Local Government remains sluggishly low at just over 1/3 elected representatives.
