I'm delighted to say that in the recent local elections, I was elected in Reigate to the new East Surrey Council, where @LibDems also won overall control. For all of us, this is an huge honour, privilege and responsibilty. We intend to use it well.

Great Thunderer piece in @thetimes -
"Don’t be fooled that radical trans activism is over"
With interesting comments from Lib Dem members and ex-Lib Dem members saying they left over this issue. However according to Party bigwigs that doesn't happen. https://t.co/o0kLuH75Q2

[Rosie Duffield MP @RosieDuffield1]

Honestly, if you're a Labour MP who's a long-term but totally secret Terf, and you're still making foolish ignorant statements about the EHRC code to save yourself, do you really think women who've you've watched being bullied by the LP over the years will keep yr secret forever?

Please play to your kids, and those so wrapped up in bashing Britain they can’t see the wood for the trees 🇬🇧

@CTMorris23 @LibDems Thx. We always said PJS should stay in the heart of our town, ideally in the same premises or otherwise close by. We expect to have some helpful news on this soon.

@Nigel_Farage Nonetheless, Nigel now lives in a @LibDems-controlled council area, while RUK here came a poor fourth. 👍

This is an image from @I_W_M of British Commandos on a landing craft approaching Sword Beach on D-Day, 6th June 1944. 82 years ago today.
War is a horrific thing; these men left their loved ones to enter its hellish cauldron. Some never returned. We remember their immense bravery and sacrifices to defeat fascism so that they should never be necessary again.

@Number10cat Let's see him try to sue a cat? ❤️

@swklibdems @VMMChamberlain The game is up. The Code will stand. The law will not change UNLESS Farage as next PM repeals EA, HRA, and GRA altogether. Be careful what you wish for?

[Mark Johnston @markjohnstonld]

@swklibdems @VMMChamberlain In short, Farage wants to burn the house down and you are helping him. Please stop.

@Juvelad @LibDems @mariecgoldman @LGBTLD @LibDemWomen @LDCRE1 @YoungLiberalsUK @DisabilityLD The EDM is 100% guaranteed to fail.

[For Women Scotland @ForWomenScot]

Last year, the Lib Dems said that they accepted the ruling and would abide by the rule of law. They have clearly decided that’s a bit boring and are going for a kamikaze pitch for the madder fringes of the Green vote, despite polling consistently showing that the sort of nice middle class people who vote Lib Dem really don’t like self-ID.

[Rebecca Paul MP @Rebecca_SPaul]

Trans people have exactly the same rights as everyone else in this country. But the Liberal Democrats want them to have more rights.

They support men accessing women’s and girls spaces. And yesterday they made clear that they support changing the law to allow this.

[Mark Johnston @markjohnstonld]

@adhib @Juvelad @LGBTLD @ShahrarAli In the real world, they've already lost. This is only about saving the party from itself.

[Mark Johnston @markjohnstonld]

@adhib @LGBTLD @Juvelad @ShahrarAli Thank you. Fair points. Let's see. The party has already stopped breaking the law and sanctioning wrongthink.

[Mark Johnston @markjohnstonld]

@Juvelad @LibDems @mariecgoldman @LGBTLD @LibDemWomen @LDCRE1 @YoungLiberalsUK @DisabilityLD The 2025 Harrogate Conference call (point 6, iirc) has now been met. Notwithstanding the delays, Liberals should be thanking the government.

@adhib @LGBTLD @Juvelad Maybe. But Davey is not the only option for leader. Under the constitution, e.g., MPs and members can call for a fresh election.
