"Scrapping the Vagrancy Act is the first big step to ending homelessness and making lasting changes that will improve lives for some of the most vulnerable people in our society." - @LaylaMoran https://t.co/1kqIZckj7I
"Mr Farage and his Tory fellow travellers want our country to retreat. They want our country to be as inward-looking and as small as they are.
Unlike Nigel Farage, I'm proud that our universal human rights were guided by British hands." @amcarmichaelMP

The Conservatives have tried to repeal the Human Rights Act before, but the Liberal Democrats stopped them.
Now they are trying to weaken it. We can't let them get away with it.👇

"After ten months of a broken test, trace, isolate system the Government must get a grip on the isolation system to support those self-isolating, and prevent further infection." - @libdemdaisy ⬇️
The evidence that a genocide is now occurring in western China is clear.
The UK and the whole world must now stand up to Beijing and use every available tool to stop it.

The Highlands is a huge producer of renewable energy but the people have the biggest energy bills in the UK.
Many are forced to decide whether they will freeze or put the heating on and go into debt.
For a Secretary of State Mr Eustice is perpetually surprised about things which are his responsibility. He was also surprised by the catastrophic impact of trade disruption on exporters in Jan. Perhaps he should make way for a minister who might actually be on top of his brief?
Happy to have joined this group of MPs set up by @Jamie4North
The path back to economic security will be a long and difficult one, but at an absolute minimum the government must recognise the 3m #ExcludedUK and ensure furlough works for all.
A pleasure to work cross-party with my colleagues from South Asian backgrounds to deliver this vital message on the importance of getting vaccinated.

We will get through this crisis.
As we do, the Liberal Democrats will be on your side, making sure that after these tough times we will build a fairer, more caring United Kingdom - together.
As we reflect on this #HolocaustMemorialDay let us pledge to be lights in the darkness.
To nurture the values & freedoms that lead people to care about others, to care for the stranger & to care for the rights of individual human beings across the world.

Family bereavement is hard enough without the barriers put up by the pandemic. It is right we take measured steps to reduce the spread of the virus through international travel but people grieving loved ones must get additional support if they have to quarantine away from home.
This is yet another tragic milestone. My thoughts today are with everyone who has lost a loved one to this horrific virus.
There must be an inquiry now. Bereaved families must have justice.
Govt keeps saying it’s a national priority to re-open #schools when it’s safe but it’s simply not treating it as such. @LibDems have been calling for a proper plan to open #schools safely for months: it’s unforgivable Govt is still lurching from one crisis to the next. /1
British artists and musicians are already coping with the impact of coronavirus - Johnson's EU Trade Deal will unnecessarily make their recovery so much harder.
Utterly appalling that almost half a million EU citizens, many of whom will be Londoners, are still living in limbo.
Government must end the anxiety they are causing so many and deliver on its promise to guarantee the rights of fellow Europeans in the UK. https://t.co/a78kayrGbM
💷Costly work permits
🗃️Mountains of paperwork
❌Additional costs
Johnson's EU Trade deal makes it so much harder for musicians to tour Europe. Our musicians and artists deserve better.
