After immoral #Rwanda bill is supported by #Tories turns out they have “misplaced” half the migrants they intend to deport. This Govt is not only morally bankrupt but totally incompetent on so many levels. Liberal Democrats #immigration #smallboats @Conservative
The The SNP have spectacularly failed to deliver for #Scotland in education, health & transport. Now their internal struggles are exposed as leader resigns & ex CEO arrested. Surely time for an election. Humza Yousaf @Libdems Scottish Lib Dems

Tories response to William Wragg MP case typically weak. He betrayed friends, party & abused position as an MP. Like Pincher, Khan, Parish, Warburton & Griffith, Tories are loath to take action unless their hand is forced. Major decline in standards during their tenure. Liberal Democrats
Contempt with which Tory Govt is viewed by US Republicans shown by snub for For Sec David Cameron as he tries to lobby over #Ukraine . Same people Liz Truss promised would give UK a post #BrexitDisaster trade deal when Donald J. Trump was #POTUS .

Sub Postmaster Alan Bates rightly critical of Whitehall & Post office saying they appear to have lied to MP’s & Ministers as well as PostMasters. Inquiry must lead to prosecutions as well as appropriate compensation for those affected. #PostOffice Scandal #PostOffice Liberal Democrats
The Friends of the Earth say England could produce 13 x more renewable energy, while using less than 3% of land without impacting food producing farmers. Tories disdain green policies opposing planning reforms for solar & wind to appease their climate denying right. #NetZero Liberal Democrats
The Resolution Foundation says average rents could increase by 13% up to 2027 as current high demand in rental market & lack of properties impacts existing tenancies. #Tories have had 16 housing ministers since David Cameron no wonder housing crisis is worse than ever. #HousingCrisis
