Candid snap of Sir Keir Starmer addressing No 10 staff who haven't yet resigned.

@cesea-libdems.bsky.social For those candidates knocking on doors of HKBNO residents. Facts - Lib Dems have a total of 5 HK born Councillors. Also produced the 1st HKBNO Councillor. Lib Dems are represented by a bird logo. Tick on that.

Jimmy Lai’s imprisonment and persecution at the hands of the Chinese Communist Party is an outrage. The Prime Minister should summon the Chinese Ambassador today, and demand Jimmy Lai's immediate release and the quashing of this trumped-up sentence.

Lib Dem leader Ed Davey hits the nail on the head 👇 www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The shockwaves from the Mandelson affair and the revelation at PMQs have rocked the Labour Party and posed serious questions for the Government.

The UK’s first councillor on a Hong Kong BN(O) visa says 👇🏽

No matter where you are in Scotland, you can elect a Liberal Democrat MSP on the peach-coloured regional ballot in May. Every vote for the Scottish Liberal Democrats on that ballot will deliver change with fairness at its heart.

Really critical deadline for your postal vote!

Delighted that in addition to Vice President, VIctoria Collins, the following amazing MPs are speaking at our event. Luke Taylor, Will Forster & Al Pinkerton. @libdemwomen.bsky.social @alpinkerton.bsky.social @willforster.bsky.social @luketaylorld.bsky.social @victoria-collins.bsky.social

On Holocaust Memorial Day, we remember the six million Jewish men, women and children murdered in the Holocaust, and the millions of others killed under Nazi persecution. We honour survivors and renew our commitment to a country where all can live and worship safely.

In 2018 today, I was on Possession Street in HK on the 177th anniversary of HK becoming a British colony.

(also, just as a matter of fact/basic national accounting, tuition fees at overseas branches of UK universities aren't exports and don't contribute directly to any export target! There may be a small indirect contribution but miniscule compared to foreign students studying in UK)

In any other context, requiring a high-productivity sector to offshore the production of its highest value-added exports would be seen as the economic illiteracy it so obviously is... www.ft.com/content/a23c...

BREAKING NEWS Hong Kong is now in Brazil

Scottish Liberal Democrats are clear that Scotland’s NHS needs fresh ideas. We believe the problem lies in the crisis in social care which keeps patients in hospital when they should be home. If we get that right, we can alleviate the pressure on A&E, waiting times and GPs.

CESEA Candiates out in their communities campaigning hard.

Today is the first day of the last Lunar month of the Year of the Wood Snake. It's apt to see a water dragon first thing at the Botanic Gardens

It's Davos this week, so please find attached a list of phrases that you may hear and what they actually mean. Full phrasebook here 😉 www.ft.com/content/ab4f...

Lisa’s son John McNab was tragically stabbed to death in Leith. She has channelled her grief into distributing 'bleed kits' and training people to use them so that lives might be saved in the future. Today she delivered one to my office and trained my staff and I to use it.

I raised the need for governments to work together to support hospitality, leisure and retail businesses facing pressure across the UK.

It’s that time of year! Look out for news of our LNY dinner event in February

"We're the only party showing we want to re-engage with Europe in a serious way." @EdDavey.LibDems.org.uk

It’s so important to recognise and celebrate the contributions of fellow healthcare professionals. This is why I have nominated my colleague, Samantha Thomas for her work on delay diagnosis of cancer claims at the forthcoming Black Heathcare awards. blackhealthcareawards.cahn.org.uk/awards/

When world leaders and politicians suck up to Trump, their power and status drains away and Trump's surges. It is obvious to a 5 year old but not to political and even some military leaders, it seems. That's why Im grateful to @eddavey.libdems.org.uk and all that speak truth to power.

If everything in this world is about oil and petrol, then I'm glad that I've spent my entire adult life walking, taking buses, tubes/metro, trams, coaches, trains and the occassional taxi.

Too many local businesses have already closed their doors. We need urgent action to save our hospitality sector. Lib Dems’ proposal to reduce VAT to 15%, at least until April 2027, would be a step towards protecting hospitality before it is too late for others.

Thank you Ying @yingtperrett.bsky.social for chairing our EGM/first executive meeting of 2026. Thanks to all of our members for attending the EGM. Executive meeting was long because it’s a BIG year for CESEA with so many candidates running for election. www.chineselibdems.org.uk/about-us

Positive signs from the @iea.org that low-emission power, grids, and storage are dominating power sector jobs - and the power sector is dominating energy industry job creation. Getting people is still tough. More thoughts: criticalmass-sustainability.com/2025/10/08/t... @greenlibdems.org.uk

If I were the Lib Dems press team. I would also do this but splice it with all the times Starmer has looked ridiculous by praising Trump.

Jenrick says he’s not a misogynist because he has a wife and daughters. “And if you're trying to suggest that somehow I don't respect women as a husband, as a father of three daughters”

I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of peace

Those who have been unaware or on the fence, I hope you are now realising how right these men were.

There is a genuine appetite for challenge to our current governments – but one based on ideas rather than incessant internal drama. Many former Conservative voters will be looking at this latest eruption and see it as the last straw. Other, more moderate parties are available.

Apologies for the typo. That should be Chou - *Turvey

#OTD 1976: Happy birthday to Wendy Chamberlain, Liberal Democrat MP for North East Fife since 2019. Chamberlain joined the Liberal Democrats after the 2015 election and in 2017 stood in Sterling. In parliament, she's the Lib Dem Chief Whip and spokesperson for Scotland and Wales.

Thousands living in mouldy homes as SNP accused of leaving Scotland ‘to rot’ https://www.europesays.com/uk/668481/ Lib Dem MP Susan Murray said local authorities and housing associations were skint as a result of SNP…#uk #news #uknews

As someone who has been a Lib Dem campaigner for a decade and a half, can I just warn Scottish Labour that "we'll just fight 73 by-elections!!!!" is so cursed and so doomed Though it would be deeply hilarious if, come May, Labour had diabolical results across the board but entered Govt in Scotland
