Buzzed: Made in Lambeth, Failed in Lambeth: The catastrophic Starmer project was born in the borough – and is now crashing down in humiliating fashion, thanks to Claire Holland’s latest bout of petty Labour factionalism brixtonbuzz.com/2026/05/made…

This is factually incorrect. I have never been offered a seat in the Lords, and would not accept one if offered.
I am the adopted Labour candidate for Hackney North & Stoke Newington. I intend to run and to win as Labour's candidate.

Effective tactical voting could easily see the @LibDems overtake the @Conservatives as the main opposition party.
Wouldn't that be a result?!

Ed Davey: Liberal Democrats 'aim to unseat as many Conservatives as possible' in the South
In addition to Eastbourne, key targets for the party include Tunbridge Wells in Kent, Lewes in East Sussex, Chichester in West Sussex and Wokingham in Berkshire.

Today is by election day for Knights Hill and Streatham Common & Vale Wards!
Two Labour councillors quit. One over a point of principle, the other because they want to be a MP.
Today is your chance to show Lambeth Labour not to take you for granted!
Vote for Nick!
Nicholas McKay retweeted
If you do have a vote in the Streatham Common & Vale by-election tomorrow, I strongly recommend voting for Nick Davidson, not just because he is a Lib Dem, but because he is a great bloke, independent minded and would provide much needed challenge in Lambeth Town Hall.
Nicholas McKay retweeted
For friends and acquaintances in Streatham Common & Vale ward one of main issues driving their vote in tomorrow's by-election will be Lambeth's poorly thought out Streatham Wells LTN.
But I don't think that can justify voting for an apologist for Donald Trump and Nigel Farage.
It appears that @StreathamCons should perhaps have done a bit more due diligence on social media activity of their candidate for the forthcoming Streatham Common & Vale by-election!

Can this be real, Lambeth councillors about to raise their basic allowance 32.8% to almost £16K at a stroke - how can this be justified?
Looks like #Lambeth councillors are set to vote themselves a 32.8% increase in their basic allowance at next week's council meeting, increasing from £12,014 to £15,960: moderngov.lambeth.gov.uk/ieL…

@lambeth_council put leisure centre memberships up by 6.7% (regular memberships)
Inclusive memberships (Disabled ppl) are being increased by 9.9%
I only found out about everyone else being on 6.7% more by flook.
That’s how easy discrimination happens & can go unchallenged!

Quick Streatham Wells #LTN poll. Interested to know peoples feelings as things aren’t quite as rosy within the LTN as many make out and @lambeth_council wouldn’t listen to certain views at their meeting last Wednesday night. Please vote and retweet!

Lambeth Council should let residents drive through its LTN, at least until it better understands their impact, MP Bell Ribeiro-Addy @BellRibeiroAddy said at a community meeting on Yesterday. "At the moment it's clearly not working," - The first truth @clairekholland

Streatham residents were stood up by their councillor after he failed to attend a scheduled monthly meeting with locals.

Please now formally resign your Streatham/London councillor post. The ward (which you neglected while campaigning) has 12,000+ residents badly needing representation, now.

"Blanket LTNs are just a hammer to crack a nut"
"Those that live on the boundary roads have the displaced traffic and increased congestion, pollution and noise and those that have little traffic, reduced pollution, peace and quiet."
