Our plan to cut VAT and energy bills would put £270 back in your pockets.

Wishing His Majesty The King a very happy birthday. 🇬🇧

Today is the beginning of Trans Awareness Week. It’s an opportunity for us to celebrate trans people, acknowledge the challenges they face, and reflect on how we as a society can work together to improve trans people’s lives.

A trip to the pub or fish and chips on a Friday shouldn't be an unaffordable luxury for hard-working people. Our plans to cut VAT on hospitality and energy bills for households would put £270 back into your pockets. ⬇️

£270 back in your pocket. Lib Dems are calling for a 5% VAT cut to save the high street and help make small joys affordable again.

This morning, I raised concerns about AI chatbots in Parliament. Children are increasingly turning to chatbots for medical advice, emotional support and more - yet Ofcom regulations are unclear as to how one to one private conversations are regulated in the Online Safety Act.

Congratulations to @Victoria-Collins.bsky.social - newly elected Vice President of the Liberal Democrats.

Huge congratulations to Josh Babarinde on being elected President of the Liberal Democrats. As an MP, he’s already secured vital protections for domestic abuse victims and been a tireless champion for his community. He’ll be a real asset as we fight for a decent, caring Britain.

Congratulations to @JoshBabarinde.bsky.social - newly elected President of the Liberal Democrats.

Over half of UK job losses since the last budget have hit our struggling hospitality industry. The next budget must right this wrong.

The BBC belongs to Britain, not Trump, Farage or their cheerleaders at GB News. Keir Starmer needs to stand up to Trump and defend our BBC, to keep it strong and truly independent.

Hospitality is on its knees. A 5% VAT cut would give our economy and our high streets the lifeline they need.

🙌🏾 Thank you Liberal Democrat Friends of Hong Kong for your endorsement!

At the going down of the sun and in the morning. We will remember them.

The BBC isn't perfect, but it belongs to Britain not Trump. Political leaders across the UK must unite in defending its independence from the White House.

𝗟𝗲𝘁’𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗯𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗺 𝗹𝗼𝘂𝗱 𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻! Last week, both presidential candidates were approached by Sky News and the BBC. I’ve got a track record of using my platform as an MP to secure coverage. As President, I’d shout about more of our values and campaigns - but I need your #1 preference to do that!

"The BBC belongs to Britain." "We cant allow the Trumpification of our politics and our media landscape." @munirawilson.bsky.social

On Remembrance Sunday, we come together to honour all who served our country and gave their lives for our freedoms. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten. We remember those who fell, and those who came home forever changed by their service.

A free, independent BBC is vital to a free, informed democracy. Don’t let Trump’s America become Farage’s Britain.

The resignations of Tim Davie and Deborah Turness must be an opportunity for the BBC to turn a new leaf, rebuild trust and resist those like Nigel Farage who want to destroy it We must stand up for a strong, independent BBC, to stop Trump’s America becoming Farage's Britain.

I had my disagreements with the BBC under Tim Davie but he was a decent man doing a difficult job. To see Trump's White House claiming credit for his downfall and attacking the BBC should worry us all.

Lib Dems want our economy to be fair, strong, and stable. We would back small businesses, cut red tape, and sort out trade with our closest neighbours.

This Remembrance Sunday, we remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice. We must never forget them — nor can we forget the veterans and serving personnel who continue to protect our freedom.

Thank you so much to all those members, activists, councillors and parliamentarians who have supported my campaign! We’re on the home straight now! Now let’s finish strong — please rank me #1 for Party President before 11th November 🙏

Exactly three years ago today we said the failing water regulator Ofwat should be scrapped. The government are still dragging their feet. Liberal Democrats won’t stop fighting to end the sewage scandal.

“It feels like Brexit déjà vu, the same hollow promises of taking back control, the same disregard for facts, the same blindness to consequence.” Paul Kohler speaks out as Reform and the Conservatives push to scrap the ECHR. @paulkohlersw19.bsky.social

Elon Musk is deliberately using his platform to poison our politics and divide our country. It's time for the government to wake up to the threat he poses to our democracy.

The Government has revealed plans for a new mandatory digital ID. It’s invasive and could mean millions of people unable to go about their daily lives.

Nigel Farage's favoured Mayoral candidate for Doncaster said black people cannot be English. Reform councillor Alexander Jones claimed being English requires Anglo-Saxon ‘lineage’. The messages were deleted after questions were raised by Byline Times bylinetimes.com/2025/11/05/n...

The Govt. must decide what they think is fairer, taxing struggling families or taxing big banks? @LibDemDaisy.bsky.social

You’ll need an extra whiteboard, Antony.
