4 years ago today I was on the front cover of the Lancashire Post as part of the Lib Dem campaign to get new schools built in Preston.
A few months later in 2022, I proposed a budget amendment to fund the new high school build.

Another narrow victory (by 2pts) for my Imperial Fists Space Marines.
Still making newbie mistakes but a fab game with Bailey. Ended up with just 4 models on the table in total ☠️
My Land Raider tank once again got destroyed without firing a shot 🤣

Fab night out with university friends (24 years and still going strong)
After 8hrs of fun and good times I got a tap on the shoulder “Are you the leader of the Lib Dems?” - slightly nervous after belting out Teenage Dirtbag in Hopwoods 🤣

Had the privilege of hearing Flower of Scotland at Murrayfield, always awesome.
Come on Scotland 🏴
120 years and they have never beat the All Blacks. Got a feeling, today might be the day.

I always pause before sharing images like this one from Reform because I know a lot of their political strategy is using bigotry to seek attention.
This is so belatedly anti-Semitic and racist it’s difficult to believe someone would design this, edit it, caption it and post it in 2025.
