Drakeford wrong to go to Qatar for World Cup, says Lib Dem leader bbc.in/3Uk63PH

It's far from a cheap shot to question whether a major political figure should officially travel to a country that would happily have people like me jailed, tortured and murdered just for being who they are. Really hope you'll reflect on this, Elin.

There's always a local angle...

Thank you Alex Cole-Hamilton MSP🔶🇺🇦, Willie Rennie, @BeatriceWishart and @Liam4Orkney for standing up for young trans people tonight and backing this vital change to the GRC process in Scotland #TransRightsAreHumanRights🏳️‍⚧️

Allegations from BBC's undercover Panorama investigation into the Met Police are profoundly disturbing. We know racism and misogyny is a widespread institutional problem in all of London's public services. The Mayor must show leadership and bring real action to end this crisis.

Horrified and appalled by the attack outside Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar. My thoughts are with the victims, our brave emergency services and the entire Jewish community.

Shocked by today’s attack on a synagogue in North Manchester, on Yom Kippur of all days. My thoughts are with the victims, their families & our Jewish community. I’m in touch with police & council to ensure Cheadle’s Jewish community has the support it needs.

I'm horrified by the appalling attack at a synagogue in Manchester on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar. My thoughts are with the victims, their loved ones and the Jewish community. We must stand united against antisemitism and hatred.

After the appalling events in Manchester this morning, I've made a small donation to the CST, who do incredible work tackling antisemitism and protecting Jewish communities across the UK. If you're able to, please consider doing the same cst.org.uk/donate-now

"Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the victims, and to all the Jewish community in our country. "This terrorist outrage is an attack on all of us. And we should stand in solidarity with our Jewish friends, and make it clear that violence is unacceptable."

Appalling to hear about this fire at the mosque in Peacehaven. It is used by my constituents and is an important part of the local community. Police at are treating it as a hate crime. I condemn this in the strongest terms. theargus.co.uk/news/25518203.…

Two years ago, we watched in horror those appalling scenes of Hamas’s evil terrorist attack on Israel. We stand in solidarity with British Jews, the people of Israel and Jewish communities around the world against terrorism and against antisemitism in all its forms.

Today is my last day as chair of Young Liberals 🔶. I’ve really enjoyed working with this brilliant group of volunteers on a huge range of projects. Delighted to take over Fundraising Officer on a fantastic Executive. Good luck to Will Tennison who will be a great Chair!

Our thoughts are with all those affected by the awful attack near Huntingdon. We’re wishing those injured a full recovery and thank the passengers and emergency services who stepped in to help those in need.
