A whirlwind first day in Parliament.
Brilliant to meet so many Lib Dem colleagues including getting all five newly elected #LibDem Sussex MPs together for the first time with our Leader Ed Davey
Political reform is often talked down as a "niche issue" for political geeks - but it is a change which has the potential to rebuild voters' connection to their representation, by making every vote matter. That is why it is at the heart of the @LibDems offer to the country.
I'm especially proud of my work on the @LibDem manifesto launched today. It offers a fully costed £9bn plan to tackle health & care crisis, plans to overhaul water industry & we want mental health prof in every primary & secondary school. Brave, bold & pragmatic. #GeneralElection
An absolute privilege to join fellow candidates and Deputy Leader @libdemdaisy at the @LibDems manifesto launch this morning
Brilliant speech by @EdwardJDavey setting out our plans to rescue the NHS and give the people of #MidSussex a fair deal
“We’ve put 20,000 more police officers on the street” @RishiSunak is boasting today
Imagine his shock when someone reminds him his party has
• Cut 21,000 police officers
•Cut 23000 police support staff
• Closed 600 police stations
& he will fall off his chair when he finds out that per capita - with an increasing population - we shall actually have fewer police on our streets then we did a decade ago NOT MORE!
I don’t speak of this often but listening to Nigel Farage in tonight’s debate I must.
My dad was an immigrant. From the moment he arrived in this country he worked hard every day in labouring jobs. My most vivid recollection is of his tired & weary eyes and oil stained overalls when he came home after a 12 hour factory shift. Even then he was able to raise a smile for us. He was kind & gentle & loved my mum with passion. He raised a family of 4 & instilled in each of us a fierce sense of right & wrong & love of country. His proudest day was when he became a British citizen. I recall him with love & affection & pride & carry the lessons he taught me in my heart every day. If it were not for my dad I would not be a lawyer today & in his memory I work hard everyday to make a difference for as many as I can. Immigration is a beautiful thing & don’t let charlatans like Farage tell you otherwise ❤️
@BestForBritain@sarahjolney1 Proud of Sarah Olney - brilliant summary of what many people felt about the Prime Minister's early departure from Normandy on Thursday. Apart from respect to the veterans and our Allies, I said to my husband, 'Biden was there, why would the PM not be there?' Philps is a fool!
I’m so proud of my party’s deputy leader @libdemdaisy and her standout performance in tonight’s #BBCdebate
The country is desperate for change. Every vote for @LibDems will be a vote to deliver that change.
Fantastic response in the town this morning with plenty of support for John Milne for Horsham on show. It was fantastic talking to locals with many agreeing that a change is needed after 14 years of this Conservative Government.
This is fantastic. It's powerful and moving and shows how @EdwardJDavey is not just a politician talking about key issues affecting our lives, he is living them too. Well worth a watch. 👇
