@TravelSYorks
Could I report a smashed glass panel on bus stop 37023372 (Monteney Road/Wordsworth Avenue)
Could I also ask for you to set up a BlueSky account so I can contact you on there

Lib Dems delivering for residents come rain or shine!
Great to be out with @WoodhouseWillis and Rintaro in the rain talking to residents about how Labour have let them down so much in just a short time.

It's been a while since we have had queues to sign a @LibDems petition on a street stall in Chapeltown, but the anger is real.

Residents of Chapeltown signing our petition asking our new MP, @MarieTidball to reconsider her vote to remove support payments for the elderly.
Plenty of people sharing their experiences of how it will affect them.

I try not to hide my neurodiversity or how it affects my mental health, but for many they don't have the support or space to speak up and seek help.
On this #WorldMentalHealthDay I want to speak up for all those that need help but don't have a voice.

Met with the @steel_valley Project with Cllr Kurtis Crossland and Michael Morrissey to discuss their current work in rewilding, community projects and nature accessibility.
Looking forward to seeing how we can help expand their work across the city.

Great few days in Bath on the @LGAcomms Next Gen course. Learning how @bathnesld have been taking an ambitious approach to waste management, heritage and house building.

My contribution to @SheffLabour's motion on mental health in the workplace.
I am wanting to speak out about my own neurodiversity, it's affect on my life, the support I have been given and how current the long diagnosis waiting list in Sheffield is potentially killing people.

Words and actions are two very different things, @Keir_Starmer
We can build a future where AI drives growth, creates wealth and attracts investment in the UK, strengthening our position on the world stage.

The liberal alternative to Labour's austere attitude should be building stuff and investment.
But laying track and building houses isn't ambitious enough. The state can, and should, take risks on supporting blue sky thinking.

A very tired and husky me summing up to BBC Politics Live my thoughts on the conference, @EdwardJDavey's speech and our hopes for the future.
Life is always tough for Lib Dems, but I hope that we can do what we do best and hold Labour to account.

As the 83 bus weaves its way from Chapeltown to Fulwood, through Firth Park, the life expectancies of the communities change by 10 years.
I spoke to @health_equals about ways councils can work to fix this.

What a welcome Chapeltown gave to the Tour of Britain as it passed through.
Didn't envy the riders as they tackled the Côte de White Lane after this, a road only ever delivered from top to bottom!

The right to reply on our @SheffLibDems motion on scrapping the universal Winter Fuel Payments.
There are tough decisions, but this is a policy of unintended consequences for those with complex needs.
Labour should invest in insulating homes, not leaving your nan to freeze.

"A policy of unintended consequences"
Spoke to @elliecolton_ this morning about the Chancellor's decision to remove universal winter fuel payments will leave those with complex care needs and poor insulation high and dry this winter.

Good to be out doing a speed check with Sue Davidson, Cllr Alan Woodcock and the Sheffield North East Policing Team along Nether Lane in Ecclesfield.
Plenty of vehicles spotted will get reminders of their responsibility to the community.

Good to meet with Des Smith to discuss the bright future that the Caribbean Club in Ecclesfield has and to face down some deliveries from the kids practicing there.
I don't think that I am going to be the next Devon Malcolm, despite treading the same wicket.

Here is Feargal Sharkey saying that we "need a Labour government" whilst endorsing Olivia Blake in Hallam.
Oh how the tune has changed.
“Feargal Sharkey to lead mass London rally over Labour’s failure to tackle water pollution.”

New things today:
- PB 5K time
- Cafe Van in Ecclesfield Park
Was brilliant to welcome Cherry Blossom Coffee to their new pitch and purchase their first coffee as a business.

For a Chancellor and Government elected on a platform of "Economic Growth" this seems quite anti-growth.
It seems like austerity has been rebranded "Fiscal Responsibility" and communities will suffer.

On only 3 hours sleep I was delighted to attend the opening of Ecclesfield Park's new and improved tennis courts on Friday.
A great introductory session with three primary schools getting the kids involved in sports from an early age.

According to the IFS, the Lib Dem manifesto is the most redistributive of the major UK-wide parties.

We need a more engaging type of politics, not one that just points and says "Vote for me because I'm not them"
I got into politics because I was annoyed and I wanted to give people a chance to vote for real hope and a #FairDeal

What a great day helping Shaff get elected in Sheffield Hallam.
Hundreds of conversations, thousands of leaflets and one very good cake from @JohnD2357.
Thank you @RichardNewby3 and those from across the country for coming over to help.

There is something about them that just stands out regardless of where they are...
Walking around just now, it occurred to me that whoever said, “Let’s make the @LibDems’ signs black on bright orange diamonds” was an absolute genius. Seriously, it’s a design masterpiece - at least compared to what the other parties work with. Anyone know the history?
