Last night’s speech frm Rachel Reeves blamed over-zealous regulators for lack of investment & innovation. Yet its Gvt tax policies which are stifling growth . She should commit to rejoining #EU customs union & single market not fiddle around with regulation. Liberal Democrats #Brexit

Hikes in energy costs caused by tyrants like #Putin mean the need for UK to invest in #renewables is common sense & essential. @reformparty_UK denial of climate change and threats to green energy producers irresponsible, unpatriotic and plain bonkers Liberal Democrats #LibDems #Reform

Another rise in #unemployment figs shows The Labour Party Govt that penalising employers through tax hikes on jobs works against their growth agenda. Chancellor & PM look increasingly short of a growth plan Liberal Democrats

Enviro Agency figs show total number of serious water pollution incidents in 2024 was up from 2023 81% were caused by three companies @ThamesWater Southern Water & Yorkshire Water 💧. Thames serious incidents increased by 100% & still it wants to pay its exec bonuses. Liberal Democrats

#Afghandataleak total shambles reflecting badly on #MOD, FO, Conservatives & The Labour Party. Secrecy had its place in protecting lives but hiding this from, Parl smacks of a cover up &further erodes public trust in govt so support Ed Davey call for indep inquiry. Liberal Democrats

#Cunliffe report working within limited brief suggests many of things Liberal Democrats have proposed over past 6 years. But replacing failing #OFWAT will not clean up water alone. The Labour Party needs to scrap private water firms & stop delaying inevitable #LibDems #water

#Netanyahu has turned #Israel into a rogue state, limiting aid in #Gaza, shooting women & children queuing for food. IPC says famine a genuine risk. Flour is now £50 a kilo there, 90p for same here according to BBC News (UK). Liberal Democrats

Time and time again, the Prime Minister says the situation in Gaza is intolerable… but he keeps on tolerating it. Palestinian statehood was literally in his own manifesto, so why won’t he recognise it now? I wonder if Donald Trump is stopping him.

The Govt borrowed £6.6bn more than in June 2024 - 2nd-highest June borrowing since monthly records began in 1993. It’s also £3.5bn more than the £17.1bn forecast by OBR. The Labour Party driven by events rather than controlling budget. Worrying. Liberal Democrats #Labour #OBR

Latest Govt sanctions to stop people smugglers rely on cross border co-operation. If it was that easy, police & Interpol would already be doing it. #BrexitDisaster made working with #EU much harder, something for which @Nigel_Fararge bears much of the blame. #Brexit Liberal Democrats

SEND provision is woefully underfunded & needs reform - Ed Davey is right to highlight deficiencies experiencing the problems first hand. The The Labour Party Govt seems to be in denial over funding challenges. Liberal Democrats #SEND

#Inflation climbing in recent months, hitting 4.4% on RPI measure. Treasury paid £16.4bn in interest on gilts in June, almost twice the £8.4bn of the same month in 2024, & £2.4bn more than #OBR expected. Govt will use quiet summer to roll pitch for tax rises. Liberal Democrats #tax

Today I relinquish my role as leader of Liberal Democrats in the #HouseofLords. Challenging but rewarding work especially at times when we had limited numbers of MP's . Delighted that Jeremy Purvis Jeremy Purvis will now pick up the baton. Lib Dem Lords Ed Davey

Congress did its homework on Nigel Farage:

"It's just great to see steady, grown-up, thoughtful politics" - former Tory minister Sayeeda Warsi "I thought it was extraordinarily classy" - LukeJSullivan Tonight's #PoliticsHub panel discuss Sir Ed Davey's comments about Angela Rayner. trib.al/ftpea6d 📺 Sky 501

If I skived Parliament on a day when issues affecting my constituency were being discussed and instead flew off to another country where I spent my time slagging off my country. I would rightly be dubbed a lazy, anti-patriotic waster. Just saying.

#LibDem members: if you want to see our party reach out & represent every community & every corner of our #society then vote Kamran Hussain for the party vice-president. #Kamran4VP - with Liberal Democrats Lib Dem Lords Kath Pinnock 🔶💙

Stunning lack of ambition from Labour leadership. Brexit has been a disaster. Everyone knows it’s a disaster. Yet they just can’t bring themselves to admit it & would rather impoverish the country still further ⁦European Movement UK⁩ theguardian.com/politics/2025/…
