I’m delighted that Shaffaq Mohammed will be joining the Lib Dem team in the House of Lords.
@ShaffaqMohd has dedicated his life to youth work, public service and local government. He will be an excellent peer, standing up for young people, our environment and for Yorkshire.
A huge thank you to the people of Woodhouse and Handsworth is due today, as well as to the amazing team who have supported me every step of the way.
Now the hard work begins to work for all residents of Woodhouse and serve our amazing community. #winninghere
@ElectionMapsUK Fantastic result for @SheffLibDems , the result tonight is for the 75k Sheffield pensioners that @Keir_Starmer and @UKLabour have cruelly taken Winter Fuel Payments from, they must listen and reverse this cut
Removing the two child cap on benefits would help lift 300,000 children out of poverty.
Five @LabourSheffield MPs voted against an amendment to remove it when some of their colleagues lost the whip to vote with the @LibDems.
Disappointing
Disappointing that none of the newly elected @UKLabour MP’s in South Yorkshire voted to scrap the cruel @Conservatives “2 child benefit cap”
Labour promised “Change” just a few weeks ago at #GE2024 their first vote tonight was to continue with Tory policy https://t.co/udu6BH3vzc

Vote Liberal Democrat for a Fair Deal.
"We've made the NHS and care the centrepoint of our manifesto"
Lib Dem leader Ed Davey highlights his party's commitment to the health service, adding he wants "cross-party" work on long term NHS costs

Today I unveiled our manifesto - For a Fair Deal.
Health and social care are at the heart of our manifesto - every vote for the Liberal Democrats at this election is a vote to elect a strong local champion who will fight every day for the NHS and care.
Caring isn’t just my family's story, it is the story of millions, caring for each other, dealing with tough times, and keeping going with love.
Sharing our story hasn't been easy, but it's important. It's time to bring carers' experiences into the light.
One of the greatest privileges of the office of Prime Minister is to be there to honour those who served, yet Rishi Sunak abandoned them on the beaches of Normandy.
It is a total dereliction of duty and shows why this Conservative government just has to go.
This is it. We have the opportunity to boot the Conservatives out of Harrogate & Knaresborough and elect an MP
who will stand up for our area.
But I need your help👇

People across the UK are crying out for change, and this election is finally our chance to make it happen.
Every vote for the Liberal Democrats is a vote to elect a strong local champion who will fight for a fair deal for you and your community.
Let's go out and win!
Well here it is, the moment we have all been waiting for.
I will be standing to get a Fair Deal for Penistone and Stocksbridge. Broken promises from Labour and Tories have let our communities down.
We need a local champion who understands and cares.
