Keir Starmer should condemn Trumpās illegal action in Venezuela. Maduro is a brutal and illegitimate dictator, but unlawful attacks like this make us all less safe. Trump is giving a green light to the likes of Putin and Xi to attack other countries with impunity.

It is a timely article, from the Taipei fire and the high court verdict on Jimmy Laiās case, journalists in Hong Kong are increasingly difficult to hold government into account, and civil liberties had been heavily curtailed.

In the last term, HK's "patriots-only" parliament, 130 bills were passed and the only ONE rejected was LGBT rights. Yet, 60% in the city agree with same sex marriage. LibDems must stand firm on furthering LGBT+ rights, setting a firm example for human rights.
