This ruling shows that proscribing Palestine Action was a grave misuse of terrorism laws. Labour must accept its mistake, drop its appeal and stop wasting taxpayers' money on suppressing civil liberties.

It’s clear we need a full statutory inquiry into Jeffrey Epstein’s ties with the British political establishment and the impact on his victims, including the disgraceful leaks from Peter Mandelson at the very top of government and the impact on national security.

Fantastic win in East Dunbartonshire, where we’ve beaten the Conservatives into 6th place. Right across the UK, former Conservative voters have heard Kemi Badenoch tell them loud and clear that they’re not welcome in her party – and are backing us instead.

We cannot trade away our political freedoms or our national security. Starmer must make that clear. Red lines mean nothing if we let China cross them.

Harrased by ICE when leaving church...

Bovino was forced out of Minnesota because the American people stood firm. Tens of thousands of people took to the streets in below-freezing temps to peacefully defend their neighbors & freedoms. We’ll keep fighting. No more deaths at the hands of rogue DHS agents.

The United Kingdom is at its best when we’re true to our values: tolerance, decency, respect for individual freedom and the rule of law. We can't let Nigel Farage throw that all away by turning Britain into Trump’s America. Choose a brighter future with the Liberal Democrats.

Trump is acting like an international gangster. The Prime Minister has tried appeasing him for 12 months and has failed. It's time we finally stood up to him and united with our European allies to make him back down.

Just as films are rated according to their content, online platforms should be rated according to the risks they pose. Our message to social media giants is clear: if your platform spreads harmful content or relies on addictive and algorithms, you should not be allowed anywhere near our children.

The PM must tell Trump in no uncertain terms: if he goes ahead with these outrageous tariffs and continues to bully Greenland, there’ll be no state visit to the US in April. The UK must not be a doormat for an extortionist, or reward Trump’s behaviour with the pageantry he craves.

Keir Starmer failed to answer my question at PMQs, so today I’ve written to his minister to demand action. She should strip South East Water of their licence immediately. Thousands of people are still without water. The Government has no time to lose.

Tonight's turret meeting will be pretty awkward

Watched Saving Private Ryan again this evening. I think it is obvious what my Father's generation were fighting for... and it was'nt Trump....

I was pleased that the Spectator magazine published my letter this week. Please read on...

The UK should offer to send troops to Greenland as part of a joint NATO operation under Danish and UK command. If Trump is serious about security, he'd agree to participate and drop his outrageous threats. Tearing the NATO alliance apart would only play into the hands of Putin.

Why is Labour giving Trump a free pass to break international law? We know what happens when US Presidents launch illegal wars. It’s why the Liberal Democrats opposed the Iraq War and it’s why we condemn Trump’s law-breaking in Venezuela today.

“A customs union would eliminate the paperwork, tariffs and quotas that are choking our trade.” @AlPinkerton.bsky.social

Keir Starmer should condemn Trump’s illegal action in Venezuela. Maduro is a brutal and illegitimate dictator, but unlawful attacks like this make us all less safe. Trump is giving a green light to the likes of Putin and Xi to attack other countries with impunity.

Reform is mired in scandals of racism, corruption and Russian interference. It's no wonder more and more people are turning to the positive voice of the Liberal Democrats as the antidote to this divisive politics.

Putin tells Russians that they invaded Ukraine to fulfill Russia's destiny. None of the lies about NATO and the EU fed to us by Russia's tools like Farage, Gill, and Arron Banks. (Thanks @berlinbridge.bsky.social)

@eddavey.libdems.org.uk , @ldbrianmathewmp.bsky.social , on the off-chance that this is not just click bait, perhaps you could ask the Home Sec whether refugees' looted possessions will be auctioned off regionally (e.g. Devizes has a good auction house) or centrally, like old army Land Rovers.

There is a direct line between Donald Trump trying to destroy the BBC and him excusing the brutal murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Trump hates the independent free press – whether in the US, Saudi Arabia or the UK. We will always defend it.

"It's disgraceful that Nigel Farage is egging Donald Trump on as he attacks our institutions, our media, and the pockets of millions.” @EdDavey.LibDems.org.uk

Trump and his cronies have the BBC in their sights. Leaders can’t stay silent while one of our great institutions is attacked. We must defend its independence, end political appointments, and remove Robbie Gibb from the Board.

You don't get coverage like this on Russian TV without Kremlin approval. The Kremlin knew Farage would be a useful tool, and such he has been and continues to be.

Today my thoughts are with everyone affected by the dreadful attack near Huntingdon - the victims, their loved ones, and everyone who witnessed it. We're all hoping those injured make a full recovery. Grateful to the passengers and emergency services who showed such bravery.

We just stopped Nigel Farage’s plan to drag Britain out of the ECHR and tear up people’s rights. Farage wanted to scrap Churchill’s legacy and bring us closer to Trump's America.

Nigel Farage wants to take away your rights. The ECHR has secured our freedoms as we know them, from torture (1978), to the press (1979), to sexual expression (1981), and privacy (2025). Today, I voted to defend these rights.

When Trump bullies Canada, Britain can’t stay silent. The Prime Minister needs to come out and clearly criticise these tantrum tariffs, not sit on the fence. 🇬🇧🇨🇦 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Last year I met Itzik Horn, whose two sons were being held captive by Hamas. Yair was released earlier this year and today I am overjoyed that Eitan is also going home. I cannot imagine the trauma their family has suffered, and I pray they can now start to heal and move forward.

Who does Farage work for - the people of Clacton or his paymasters? I'm sure most people know the answer to that. Lucrative second jobs for MPs and big money political donations must be made serious criminal offences. They subvert democracy and are gateways to corruption.

News of a ceasefire deal in Gaza brings real hope. The UK and our allies must do all we can to get the hostages home, get aid in to starving people, and finally end this horrific violence. This must be the first step towards a two-state solution and a lasting peace.

I am horrified by the images of a mosque in Peacehaven burning after a suspected arson attack. Everyone should be able to worship free from fear and terror. Islamophobia is totally unacceptable. Those who spread hatred and incite violence against Muslim communities must stop.

Leaving the ECHR would hand Putin a huge victory. Those who advocate doing so are colluding with an enemy of our country. They are traitors.

Hiding the truth won’t change history. A nation built on Brown and Black suffering will remain a nation built on Brown and Black suffering.

We in the UK have to retake the flags. They are currently very powerful weapons in the hands of the enemies of democracy. One step in doing that is linking the flags to the war against fascism. Let's see how well Farage and Yaxley-Lennon can stomach that.

We must do the same for Melksham and see a new railway station opened at Devizes Gateway

The UK must lead on the world stage in acknowledging the genocide taking place in Gaza – and advocating for a return to diplomacy.

What is happening in Gaza is a genocide. And the President of the United States is doing nothing to stop it. Keir Starmer must raise this with Trump during the state visit.

Brazil has jailed former President Bolsonaro for 27 years for trying to overturn a democratic election result. Trump is in the White House. The USA is a first world country with a broken political system and a corrupt third-world government.

I’m old enough to remember when Conservative Party leaders believed in law and order.

I raised both Devizes Gateway Railway station and the Bath & Wiltshire Metro in the Commons this morning. I will keep pushing for the rail network Wiltshire needs and deserves. youtube.com/shorts/8d2l0...

🍺 Pubs are the heart of our communities🍺 This week I stood up in Parliament for our local pubs. They’re more than just places to eat and drink. They’re where neighbours meet, friendships are made, and communities thrive. Profitable pubs pay taxes. Closed pubs don’t. youtu.be/vUsU0cj7HIk?...

Shocking.... Reform are a disgrace

A letter from our Liberal Democrat Spokesperson for Foreign Affairs Calum Miller MP to David Lammy Foreign Secretary on the ongoing situation in Gaza, Palestine and Israel.
