This thread for Billy Bragg explains how a great result for Liberal Democrats could be transformative for our agenda of care, environment, internationalism, reducing inequality & electoral reform Pls make it happen - here in MDNP that means voting for me!

Bookmark this in case you ever think, "were the Tories all that bad?" A thread of the Tories' worst moments...🧵 Nadine Dorries looking adoringly at Boris Johnson

I’ve changed the Labour Party. If you put your trust in me by voting Labour, I will change the country.

It's been a remarkable campaign. Now let's bring it home. Take the leap. Vote Liberal Democrat for a Fair Deal. 🔶

Still 2.5hrs to go …: make it happen

Stop 12, the final stop on my big tour of #BristolCentral, is Clifton In this beautiful garden, surrounded by Green volunteers and flowers, I feel grateful for everyone who has helped us make today the biggest, most positive day of the campaign so far 📷 #GeneralElection2024

Last yr a woman told me she could never vote for me as I was “just a waitress with no qualifications” (I owned a catering biz) & she was disgusted by Angela R who she said “couldn’t control herself” (as a teen mum) Today I’m the local MP & AR is Dep PM. That’s real Levelling Up

Vikki Slade MP 🔶💙 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 Too many people are tribal. I think HoC could do with more men & women who are grounded due to relevant work & life experiences, rather than SPADs out of Oxbridge & PPE degrees. Angela Rayner’s great. I’d like to see more cross party collaboration too on health & education.

😮 It’s going to be 72 #LibDem MPs #InvernessSkyeRossAndRossShire🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 What a great election the Liberal Democrats🔸 have had. Best result & most seats won for over 100yrs👏 I ran out of Orange spots & couldn’t keep up with #LiberalDemocrats gains. LD seats won 1979-2024 For A FAIR DEAL🧡

Very impressive results for #PlaidCymru Plaid Cymru 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 are a strong voice for #Wales🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Rhun ap Iorwerth had a great campaign. He came across very well on the TV debates & spoke so eloquently & bi-lingually too. Winning 4 seats is ardderchog #Llongyfarchiadau Plaid Cymru

Is it just me but suddenly everything feels …. normal ? No more psycho dramas and scandals. Like the grown ups are back in Govt & people can get on with their lives watching politics out the corner of their eyes. Safe

I found it very odd that my local Reform candidate didn't turn up to the two hustings I attended & had no social media. Did any of the candidates I follow here, Tom Collins MP Marc Bayliss or Tor Pingree 🌱 actually meet the mysterious "Andrew Peplow"?

Wow, that was quick. The effective ban on onshore wind farms in England has been lifted, just a few days after Labour took power. Planning barriers cut, so "onshore wind applications will be treated in the same way as other energy development proposals" gov.uk/government/pub…

🎉 Excited to see all my new Liberal Democrats MP colleagues today. 🔶 Over the last few years it’s been an absolute pleasure to help so many of them with their election campaigns. 🙌 Now we’re back as the third party in Parliament & the largest third party in more than 100 years!

What’s been going on with these #Reform candidates that hardly have any online presence or real life presence? Do they actually exist? How can they not turn up to hustings & be absent from the count? Serious concerns! It’s not just #Tatton This needs to be investigated

#MarkMatlock the AI generated #Reform Limited Company candidate. 🤔 Can’t wait to see the real life interview. I just showed his picture to my wife and she said straight away “that’s not a real person, it’s AI” What do you think #Twitter / #X ? #Fake? Who’s looking into this?

BREAKING So so happy The increasingly impressive ⁦Rachel Reeves⁩ has just formally announced the appt of COVID CORRUPTION COMMISSIONER will take place within weeks Many of us have campaigned for this & everyone who has supported (that’s you)…this is great news👍🏼

JD Vance I’m so impressed by your IQ + Latin. And your ability to measure other’s IQ so instantly and confidently. But I hope your big genius is not making you patronising towards people with an IQ of 110 - since that is 75 % of the US population. And perhaps even 1 or 2 of your voters 😎

How incredibly brave of ITV to tackle this subject now that the government which oversaw this scandal is long out of office. This could have had enormous impact…three years ago.

Jeez… if we don’t wake up To this we deserve everything we get… when I say we….
