We think GB News presenter Camilla Tominey needs a calculator, and a map… 🤦‍♀️

Lib Dems WIN 25 councillors in Newcastle 🔶

Have you ever been inside the House of Commons Chamber?

We don’t do division. We fix potholes, repair church roofs and clean rivers. We focus on the local issues that matter to you and we get things done. Vote Lib Dem on Thursday for a local champion who'll work tirelessly for you.

We @libdems.org.uk are gathering views on how children use social media & how they can be better protected online. Your input will help shape our response to the Government’s online safety consultation. Fill in our short survey by May 11th.👇 docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

When Liberal Democrat councils are doing this well, it’s no surprise even Kemi Badenoch wants a share of the credit.

There's just one week to go before crucial elections which will decide how your communities are run. A vote for the Liberal Democrats on 7 May is a vote to elect a strong local champion, someone who will fight for you and your community.

Ed stands up for Britain at its best, a country where people look out for each other, where public services work, and where politics is about fixing problems not stoking division.

Happy Saint George's Day!

Over 450 British armed forces personnel died during the entire 20-year involvement in the conflict in Afghanistan after the 9/11 attacks and the invocation of NATO's Article 5....

Horrifying to see an American woman shot dead by an ICE agent on a Minneapolis street, and Donald Trump’s ghoulish response is truly chilling. Britain mustn’t follow America down this dark path.

She reversed, she turned her wheel, the officer was to the side of the bonnet when she moved forward, as her wheel was turned, her vehicle was turning away from him. This is evident from the entry point of the bullet. #Minneapolis should ask #ICE to leave immediately after the #MinneapolisShooting

Keir Starmer must come to Parliament today and make it clear that Britain stands with Denmark against Trump’s threats.

I have just seen on the news that hotel staff are advised to contact their local police if a male/males check in with a child where a woman may not be present... What in the homophobia is this?!?! This will not address grooming gangs but will target single fathers, uncles and gay parents.

She has zero shame...

We remain a member of the Council of Europe, as we founded the council in 1949. The flag represents the council, not the EU.

Nowcast Update - Reform fall short of a majority for the first time since July. RFM: 310 (+305), 27.3% (26 Short) LAB: 86 (-325), 18.3% LDM: 80 (+8), 13.6% CON: 72 (-49), 20.0% SNP: 44 (+35), 2.8% GRN: 26 (+22), 13.8% PLC: 6 (+2), 0.9% Oth: 7 (+2), 3.4% electionmaps.uk/nowcast

First Venezuela, next Greenland? You don't suck up to bullies like Trump, he will just see it as a sign of weakness. Keir Starmer needs to get on the phone to our European allies including the Danish PM, and show a united front against Trump's threats.

I think you're on your own there. If a Country of 300+ million people can't remove one 79 year old fat dude from the White House, there's a lot more wrong with your Country than the 79 year old fat dude!

Trump just handed Russia and China all kinds of pretext and precedent to take illegal, unilateral action. We are headed into very dangerous times.

Putin shows he can invade Ukraine with minimal reprisals. Trump shows he can take over Venezuela with minimal reprisals. It’s like they’re giving the nod to Xi Jinping to have a go?

Even if Trump’s attack on Venezuela and kidnapping of Maduro somehow led to a positive impact on Venezuela’s future, it would not make these actions by the United States legal, moral or wise. Normalising and legitimising this behaviour endangers all countries - democracies and dictatorships alike.

Those threats made by Trump against Canada, Greenland and Mexico hold new weight today.

Rubio is claiming that they did not need Congress permission because it was a law enforcement mission. The US is behaving as a global police state, extending its own arbitrary legal decisions to the whole world. This is not a problem just for Venezuela.

Trump has just announced he is going to RUN another country (with or without boots on the ground) to ensure oil flows for US companies. Yes, there’s still people - including in Latin America - pretending this is about Maduro winning elections or not. How is a Trump occupation any more legitimate?

For the #USA to run #Venezuela prior to a transition, they will have to engage in a full scale military operation... Where is #Congress ?

If #Venezuela strikes back against the #USA will #NATO be called to support the USA, or has President Trump voided this by attacking first?

Keir Starmer should condemn Trump’s 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.

Hello everyone some of you may have heard the news. Yes, Venezuela has been bombed. For the time being, it has been confirmed that only military bases, airports, and government related facilities had been struck. I'm safe for now, scared but safe. Will keep you guys updated as to how things go.

The capture of #Maduro is a world war level risk... Imagine if Russia captured #Zelensky ? This has just flipped the lid on what is acceptable for modern "warfare", and all world leaders are now at risk.

Happy New Year

Don’t let Trump’s America become Farage’s Britain. Where gun laws are rolled back, and schools have to teach children what to do in case of a mass shooting.

Don't ignore the elephant in the waiting room: You can't fix the NHS without fixing social care.

Israel attacked Iran last night... Does this mean by Western Standards, Iran has a right to defend itself?

A very Happy Easter to all celebrating across the UK and around the world today!

China can’t expect to benefit from the UK’s openness while denying entry to British MPs and targeting pro-democracy voices. It’s unacceptable. We’re urging the Foreign Secretary to summon the Chinese ambassador and demand answers for @werahobhouse.bsky.social

It's the elephant in the waiting room. You can't fix the NHS without fixing social care.

For the US to side with Russia and North Korea to oppose a UN resolution condemning the illegal invasion of Ukraine defies all common sense and adds insult to the countless injuries suffered by the brave Ukrainian people. edition.cnn.com/2025/02/24/p...

This is the scary far right world we are living in, a #Reform candidate for parliament openly calling for the murder of our Prime minister. It's my understanding that he's been arrested and is under investigation but how many young men has he influenced prior to this?
