The government needs to stand up for a truly independent BBC free from political meddling. That means sacking Robbie Gibb and ending the political grip on the BBC board.

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.

Keir Starmer needs to wake up and fix our broken voting system before the next election, or he risks letting Nigel Farage into Number 10. We will keep fighting for fair votes to make sure every voice is heard.

It’s clear to anyone paying attention that Farage gets an easy ride from the media. They give him as much airtime as he wants but never hold him to account for the damage he’s done. So much of what’s broken in Britain is thanks to Nigel Farage.

The King is absolutely right to strip Prince Andrew of both his titles and his residence at the Royal Lodge. It’s clear that Andrew's position had become totally untenable, having disgraced his office and embarrassed the country.
