Sunday:
Street stall campaigning can be fun...
I'm Richard Flowers.
Liberal Democrats believe in working together.
That's why we want Britain to remain in the EU.
And that's why I'm here today at the Cheadle Lib Dems street stall, putting the positive case that we remain stronger in together.
You'll've heard all the scare stories. About the economy and trade.
But we don't believe the British are quitters.
We believe Britain can lead in Europe, and that there are positive things we get.
28 countries working together has already delivered a longer period of peace and prosperity than ever before in history.
But think about the future. Kids today who deserve the chance to work, travel, learn yes and even retire anywhere in Europe. We want to give them that opportunity.
The Liberal Democrats believe in a future that's better for all of us together. And that's why we want to Britain to remain in Europe.

Day 5625: Messages from Cheadle #1 - the NHS
Thursday:
We are trying a new experiment in VIDEO BLOGGING.
Daddy Richard will be doing some news'n'views from his old home town, and for the start he has brought Daddy Alex along to go back to the very beginning, the place where he was born.
More to follow, you lucky people!
Richard: I’m Richard Flowers – and my husband Alex was born here, at Stepping Hill Hospital.
Alex: We both depend on the NHS. And we’re both grateful for all the things that they do.
Richard: We’re glad that the junior doctors have got their agreement – at last – but why do the Tories keep picking a fight with the NHS? Last time it was the nurses. This time it’s the junior doctors.
Why do they keep trying to rip up the NHS?
Alex: It’s the same with the schools, and even the BBC. I just don’t get why the Tories keep trying to break the British institutions that all the rest of us love.
Richard: The Liberal Democrats want to build a better future – invest in the NHS and work with professionals, not against them.
The big change that we want to make isn’t imposing bureaucracy or picking a fight.
We want the NHS to get better at delivering for mental health issues. And we’d put in the money to do it.
Alex: We all know people who suffer with mental health problems. But they’re not as easy to put into targets – or photo opportunities.
Richard: These are the priorities for the Liberal Democrats.
Not picking a fight with doctors.
But building a better future and a better deal for those who need it most.
