Don't miss out!
Following our fabulous election results, we would like to invite all members and supporters to the first of what we intend to be more regular members' social get-togethers.
We'd love to see you at The Royal Oak, Bishop's Cleeve, GL52 8LR on Sunday 1st June between 7-9.30pm.
There's plenty of parking nearby, and if the weather's good, we'll be out in the garden. If not, we've got a cosy spot inside at the quieter rear area.
Feel free to bring along any friends or family who share our values - the more, the merrier!
These are exciting times and as the newly appointed Membership Development Officer I’m looking forward to meeting you all I'll be working closely with Babs Farmer (who I’m sure many of you will know), to make sure we keep building this positive momentum.
The Southwark Lib Dems invite you to "Pizza and Politics - The Big Debate" on Tuesday 3rd June from 6-8pm at St Christopher's Inn, Borough High Street. Nearest tube/trains is London Bridge, zillions of bus routes go by there as well. The tables are booked from 5.45pm onwards. The big topic:
"The two party system is dead - are the Lib Dems doing enough to be the default option?"
Join us for an evening of debate, come along with your views or even prepared speeches (max 2 mins). Why not debate the opposing side to your opinion or hear what everyone else has to say before you pile in. Perhaps you just want to hear the debate and have a bite to eat with friends old and new. Whatever your views, this promises to be lively, tasty and a great opportunity for members new and old to share your views or just have a natter... You never know, some of your ideas may end up forming the spine of the 2026 campaign!
It's free to attend, a particularly good opportunity for members who are new to the party or haven't been in touch for a while to reconnect. All we ask is that you order some food and/or drink for yourself to cover the base costs of the venue.
We are delighted that Mike Martin, MP for Tunbridge Wells and member of the Defence Select Committee, will give a talk followed by a Q&A.
The pub drinks continue as usual!
We will be at the Jack Horner as usual - hopefully see lots of you there.

Come and join Zöe and Alistair for a journey of whisky and nibbles from around Great Britain & Ireland.
This event is open to anyone from expert whisky “tasters”, those who have never tried one and anything in between. Though organised by Liberal Democrats, and with the aim to raise funds for our future campaigns, this will largely be a non-political evening. Zöe and Alistair will be mingling so do feel free to ask them any questions of interest but all room discussion will be about the food, and most importantly, the whisky.
We will also be running a raffle. You can buy raffle tickets now and also on the night.

Join us for a timely and vital panel event looking at the growing challenges faced by trans people in the UK today.
Following many years of challenges to trans inclusion in our society, this discussion will explore key issues impacting the trans community in 2025 — including discrimination, inadequate access to gender-affirming healthcare, legal recognition, and the increasingly hostile discourse around trans inclusion in public life, including sports.
Our panel of trans individuals — including activists, researchers, and subject-matter experts — will share their lived experiences and insights into the current political and social landscape, and outline what needs to change for them. Central to the conversation will be how allies, communities, and political movements can effectively resist these rollbacks and support trans people with action as well as words.
A generous segment of the event will be devoted to open questions from the audience. This will be a space for honest conversation — whether you're seeking clarity, wanting to share your concerns, or looking to get more involved.
This event is open to all Liberal Democrat members and supporters. Whether you’re a long-time ally, newly engaged, or simply trying to understand the issues better: you are welcome.
We want to ensure a safe environment for our speakers and all attendees. Please do not share this advert outside of Liberal Democrat groups without speaking to Martyn first. Attendees are asked to come with an open mind and to engage with the discussion with respect for the lived experience of the panelists and opinions and beliefs of everyone present.
The event is completely free of charge, but voluntary contributions towards the cost of the room and refreshments are warmly welcomed (including cash or card payments on the night).
For further details, contact Martyn Cooper (Diversity Champion, Southampton Liberal Democrats): diversity@southampton-libdems.org.uk / 07531 975204.
