Can a party really claim to be in opposition when they set the annual budget? (Value £1.2bn)

Labour are in charge of implementing the budget.
If things go wrong then Labour are to blame.
If things go well then it’s because the LibDems allocated the money.

I'm not sure if Twitter feeds you can't reply to are a sign of Lib Dem's or Twitter's failure as an entity. If I wanted the Lib Dem news I wouldn't have removed myself from their mailing list.
If the best thing you can say about a party is that they aren't the Tories then there isn't much worth saying.

Last May, we elected 10 fantastic new Green councillors!
Since then, they have been making a real difference to the people of Edinburgh.
We look back at just some of their Green Wins from the past year:
