Farage isn't fighting for anyone in Britain - he's fighting for the highest bidder. While people in the UK are struggling, Farage is grifting.

Andy Burnham made a bold pledge to save our pubs - will he stick to it?

Nigel Farage pocketed a £5 million Brexit reward. When he promised we would be better off, he clearly only meant himself. 10 years on, it's time to end the chaos and fix our broken relationship with Europe, starting by joining the single market.

🧵 After losing the confidence of more and more of his Ministers and MPs, Keir Starmer's resignation was inevitable. But that doesn't make it any less frustrating to see the revolving door at Downing Street is still well and truly in place.

And to think Nigel Farage and Kemi Badenoch wanted to support these people with their illegal war!

It’s time for the government to rip up their red lines on Europe to protect our defence, slash living costs and grow our economy. It’s deeply disappointing that they won’t commit to this.

Today, we @libdems.org.uk are announcing our plan for a new Growth and Defence Partnership with the EU, to: ✅️ Join the Single Market ✅️ Join a Customs Union ✅️ Boost growth and cut living costs ✅️ Strengthen European defence to keep Britain safe

Defence bonds would raise £20billion to shore to our national security in the next two years. The world has changed, and we need to respond. The government cannot afford to sit on their hands any longer.

Big corporations are making a fast buck whilst families struggle with soaring energy costs. We @libdems.org.uk will change that by clawing back their windfall profits to cut your bills, through our Essential Energy Guarantee. Watch to hear more.

Every single household in Britain should be able to afford their basic everyday energy needs. Our Essential Energy Guarantee would use the huge windfall profits of the big energy network operators to cut your bills. @libdemdaisy.bsky.social has the details. ⬇️

The energy operators have made huge windfall profits in the past five years. We want to claw back that money and use it to reduce people's energy bills.

I was asked what I thought about the Prime Minister's ultimatum to tech companies. Here's what I had to say.

I can't believe it's taken 2 years for the Prime Minister to issue an ultimatum to the big tech companies.

Labour's King's Speech included one new Bill for small businesses, namely to tackle late payments. This barely scratches the surface of the challenges facing small businesses.

The war in Iran is pushing up prices and impacting farmers, shaking the bedrock of our food security. The government needs to look at all the pressures, in the round.

Households across the country are paying the price as Trumpflation continues to bite. We Lib Dems have a plan to tackle this, by breaking the link between electricity and gas prices and halving energy bills in the next decade.

Very proud to join faith and community leaders from across our county to take a stand together against antisemitism, Islamophobia, and all forms of hate.

I wonder what it is about the PM fighting for his political life that’s made the Chancellor suddenly realise that a temporary VAT cut - that we Lib Dems have championed for months - might be a good idea? 🤔

British businesses face so much extra post-Brexit red tape. A new UK-EU customs union would strip much of it away. That’s why it’s so disappointing that Labour MPs joined the Tories and Reform in blocking @libdems.org.uk calls to kickstart negotiations.

The government's decision to extend the fuel duty freeze later this year is too little, too late.

The threat of Trumpflation is hanging over people’s heads. The government should take up our Lib Dem plans. Read the full story: www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c5...

Brexit has left us poorer and more isolated in a dangerous world. We must build real sovereignty with energy and food independence - whilst re-building our relationship with Europe to make us richer and safer.

WATCH: “I flippin’ well hope the Labour leadership contenders are listening”

Instead of tackling the cost of living, the Government is consumed by infighting. Read more: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I thought the £5m was for security… 🤔

The government’s King's Speech was too timid.

🔶🗳️🔶

Liberal Democrats are proud to serve their community. We don’t sow division; we fix potholes and church roofs, and we always sweat the small things. 

🔶 Vote Liberal Democrat this Thursday to elect a local champion for your community. 🗳️

There are millions of unpaid carers across the country quietly looking after loved ones, and for too long they’ve been ignored. Liberal Democrats will always be the voice of care, as it is the only way to rescue our NHS.

Save our high streets! Eye‑watering business rates bills are landing on doormats, meaning that some small businesses including here in St Albans will have to make the heart wrenching decision to close their doors, for good. I’ve called on the Chancellor again to take action to save our high streets.

The horrific antisemitic attacks we have seen across the country are both attacks on British Jews and attacks on our British values.

Nigel Farage received a £5m crypto donation from a foreign Bitcoin billionaire - while actively promoting cryptocurrency himself. That stinks. We will not let our British politics be bankrolled by Bitcoin billionaires. We do not want Donald Trump’s America to become Nigel Farage’s Britain.

“We do not want our British politics funded by foreign bitcoin billionaires.” Daisy Cooper on why Britain must reject Farage’s Trump-style politics. #BBCQT

“These are antisemitic attacks on British Jews, they are also an attack on our British way of life and our British values.” Daisy Cooper on why the Government needs to act to protect the Jewish community and tackle antisemitism. #BBCQT

People across our country have been struggling for years with a devastating cost-of-living crisis and Donald Trump’s idiotic war in Iran has only added to it. So why are Nigel Farage and Kemi Badenoch cheering him on?

Our plan would deflate Trumpflation, bringing down fuel costs for families and businesses across the country - now.

Trumpflation is ballooning the cost of living - yet it’s been cheered on by Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage. We Lib Dems are renewing our calls on the government to slash fuel prices, train and bus fares and EV street charging costs too.

If the Prime Minster lied about Peter Mandelson’s vetting then he’s got to go.

The Conservatives and Labour have run our NHS into the ground. People can’t see a GP when they need one and it’s only getting worse. We are clear: new housing must go hand in hand with new GPs. We will ensure that no community is left overwhelmed.

Join @EdDavey.LibDems.org.uk tomorrow for a big announcement regarding the NHS. 📺🔴 LIVE on Youtube and across our socials from 11am.

We @libdems.org.uk are calling on the FCA to investigate whether Farage’s plans to cash in on Crypto could potentially amount to market abuse and a conflict of interest. It raises concerns that Farage could be using the Trump playbook to put his own interests above the public good.
