It is wonderful to see The King returning to public duties and that he is making progress in battling this awful disease.

The Liberal Democrats and I wish him and the Princess of Wales well in their recoveries.

As a carer myself, I know how rewarding it can be, but also how relentless and exhausting.

The Government must fix the flawed and failing Carer's Allowance system as an urgent priority.

Deeply troubled to hear of the events at Ammanford. My thoughts are with the teachers, students, and their parents during this incredibly difficult time. Thanking the emergency services for their vital response.

The Conservatives' treatment of unpaid carers is a scandal. For years, those dedicating themselves to family care have been taken for granted.

Ministers should support our invaluable carers, not treat them like criminals. It’s time they fixed the broken Carer's Allowance system.

Testing the waters here in Woking, even the swans are having second thoughts before diving into the River Wey.

People are fed up with water companies pumping their filthy sewage into our communities, and the Conservatives are letting them get away with it.

Recently, I visited Israel and Palestine to hear directly from people affected by the conflict.

Liberal Democrats will continue to call for an immediate, bilateral ceasefire - to put an end to the appalling human suffering in Gaza, and get hostages home to their families.

This is awful. People caring for their families are being hit with huge debt demands for tiny oversights from years ago.

The Conservatives need to call an immediate halt to these repayments and launch a review to prevent this happening again.

We utterly condemn Iran’s attack on Israel.

This is a dangerous escalation in a conflict that has already caused far too much death and suffering.

This week I visited Tunbridge Wells.

Thanks to the local Lib Dem team who pushed through the gridlock, this wasted brownfield site, ignored since 1999, is set to become a thriving retirement community right in the heart of this beautiful town.

Today, six months on, I am thinking of all those Israelis and Palestinians who have had their lives turned upside down by this dreadful conflict.

For years Liberal Democrats have called for far tougher control of arms exports, so that British arms are not being used in conflicts such as the devastating one in Gaza.

The UK Government must take swift action to suspend arms exports to Israel.

They braved the horrors of war to get food to starving families. Their deaths are horrifying and heartbreaking.

This violence has to stop. Now. We need an immediate bilateral ceasefire – a real ceasefire that finally sets us on the path to a lasting peace.
