Last night was my first Council meeting and I loved every second. This morning I’m back to doing Physics revision for my uni exams.
Very proud to be a woman smashing down glass ceilings in STEM and Politics 💪🏼 ❤️
I am proud to say that I have been officially approved as the Lib Dem candidate for Wavertree this May 🧡 It’s been lovely getting to know the residents so far and I can’t wait to get out more when the restrictions allow. Roll on May 6th!!

The state of the weeds and street cleansing in Liverpool isn’t good enough. This is due to 14 years of Labour letting our City down, by failing to get the basics right.
