Deeply disturbing images from #bondibeach #Australia. Thoughts and prayers for those involved

A well organised and attended discussion by @SloughLibDems: Liberalism as an answer to a polarised society. With populism on the rise, #Liberals are the clear alternative

Congratulations to Cllr Sophie Crossthorn for being selected in #Sheffield #Hallam. With @UKLabour in utter disarray, this is certainly a seat for @libdems.org.uk to win back!

Another #budget & another wasted chance to improve the lives of ordinary people - no wonder people are feeling that this Government doesn’t care for them

. @JessBrownFuller @libdems right to describe the plans as “completely disgraceful”. Justice not only should be done but should be seen to be done

#libdems - build bridges and not walls

My thoughts today are with those who lost loved ones or are still struggling today due to #Covid. The inquiry notes UK Government did “too little, too late” and that an earlier lockdown could have saved 23,000 lives is devastating. We owe it to all those that suffered that lessons are learnt.

Kamran rightly speaks against Labour’s use of migrants as sacrificial pieces in hope to swing votes. When populist rise, it's progressive's burden to be fair. Speak on the integration and contribution from migrants. Otherwise, it's mirroring those who seek to disfranchise democratic participation.

Our asylum system has been broken by the Conservatives and by Brexit. We need solutions that are going to work, and that’s what the Liberal Democrats are proposing.

I never thought I would see the day when senior @teamlabouruk.bsky.social figures would celebrate applause from the likes of Tommy Robinson and Rupert Lowe. Yet, here we are.

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

Opening doors, welcoming people and having conversations are important in tackling some of the challenges we face today. Together we can help break down stereotypes, reduce #prejudice, and build trust among #communities. Thank you to Imam Qari Asim and Makkah Mosque #Leeds for doing exactly this.

A very well organised & attended dinner for @watfordmayor.bsky.social re-election. So many people willing to donate to ensure that they not only re-elect Peter but to ensure they have @libdems.org.uk representation at all levels. Proud to play a small part in the successful evening!

The Government has announced that #Police and #crime commissioners are to be scrapped in #England and #Wales . This is a welcome move and one that should have happened a long time ago!

Congratulations to Josh Babarinde for being elected @libdems.org.uk President & to Victoria Collins MP for being elected as Party Vice-President. Best of luck to both in their new roles

With just hours to go before results are announced, I just wanted to thank all members who played their role, whether campaigning or turning up to hustings to listen to us. Whatever the outcome, we will come together to take on the fight for a more Liberal society. #libdems

Voting for @libdems.org.uk Party Vice-President closes soon - many thanks to members from across #England, #Scotland & #Wales for their support #Kamran4VP

Many sacrifices made so we can live freely

November marks #Islamophobia Awareness Month. And with almost 40% of all religious hate crimes in 2024 targeting Muslims, this is a stark reminder of the problem we face. We, @libdems.org.uk will continue to fight prejudice wherever it exists.

Another by-election and another gain for the @libdems.org.uk - beating the Greens again!

I voted Kam 1 yesterday. He's a good lad and he'll do the work.

Thank you very much to all those that have messaged to say that they have voted me for Party Vice President & for those still thinking, please do have a look at my manifesto. Thank you #Kamran4VP #LibDems
