This is such an important thread!

[Luke Tryl @LukeTryl]

🧵Having conducted lots of focus groups with Muslim voters this year, I would be cautious about attributing the shift away from Labour to Gaza alone. I think a good comparison is Brexit acting as a trigger for Red Wall voters leaving Labour rather than sole cause.

[Ed Davey @EdwardJDavey]

I’m missing our dear friends Paddy and Charles especially today.

They would have loved these results – especially seeing the Liberal Democrats winning back their old seats in Somerset and the Highlands!

[Will Dyer @WilliamPHDyer]

@esbagshaw And from memory that exit poll had us on 4 more seats than we actually got 😂😂

[Will Dyer @WilliamPHDyer]

I remember being in HQ when the exit poll came through in 2015. The country fell on us like a ton of bricks. It was so hard and required a belief that we didn’t always have. But we did it!

[Vinous Ali @vinousali]

To every Lib Dem who has worked to get the party back on its feet since 2015 - well done. It was long and winding and utterly exhausting and heartbreaking at times but so so SO worth it. Take a bow.

[James Kanagasooriam @JamesKanag]

This is fascinating from @MarinaHyde. We found that 2/3rds of the UK believe that life is too politicised. Perhaps when this election is done Starmer’s legacy will be to relegate politics to the middle pages so it “treads a little lighter on everyone’s lives”

[Will Dyer @WilliamPHDyer]

Labour to the left of me, Tories to the right of me, here I am stuck in the middle with you! #ITVdebate

Can we compare the below to @RishiSunak ‘joke’ in the House of Commons. Kindness costs nothing Prime Minister.

In memory of Nex, we must all recommit to our work to end discrimination and address the suicide crisis impacting too many nonbinary and transgender children.

you'll never sing that / you'll never sing that / profitable in league two because we have to be because we're owned by ourselves / you'll never sing that.

The only no go area in my borough of Tower Hamlets for Paul Scully and the Conservatives generally is the Bethnal Green Working Men’s Club!

[Alex Wickham @alexwickham]

The govt is calling on a second Tory MP to withdraw their comments about Muslims this morning

Paul Scully should take back his claim that parts of Tower Hamlets and Birmingham are ‘no go zones’, legal migration minister Tom Pursglove tells @KayBurley

📻 "You'll change your view of politicians ... You are witnessing the very odd sound of me waxing lyrical about a politician in the current political climate. Very, very, very impressive man" - @mrjamesob on interviewing @EdwardJDavey. In full at https://t.co/6FVjp6xysX

[Kate Osborne @KateOsborneMP]

Conversion therapy isn’t medical treatment – it’s abuse.

It's premise being LGBTQ+ is wrong, it causes serious mental health problems& has driven some to suicide.

Even a majority of #Tory voters want a ban!

Cates should stop scaremongering & it should be banned in full ASAP.

[tldrjack @tldrjack]

Doesn't take a genius to work out what's going on here...

[Lizzy Roberts @imalizzzard]

Buzzing from a full afternoon with the London Nonprofit User Group!

Amazing updates, announcements, great speakers and content, just a great day overall! 💙 to see the #trailblazercommunity in action!

Thanks to our leaders @JuliaYted @morrtracey @WilliamPHDyer

[Peter Tatchell @PeterTatchell]

Aged 17, I had a relationship with an older man who was my senior at work

I was not groomed or abused. We remain life-long best friends

Such power imbalance relationships are not automatically abusive. Some might be & that is wrong. Others are not

We were once told the Bible was very clear; slavery was legitimate, leadership was male, divorce equaled exclusion, the earth was only 6,000yrs old etc. Now all those immature views have been unmasked but cruelly, learning nothing, some still use it to condemn LGBT+ people.

[Will Dyer @WilliamPHDyer]

I will unfortunately be on holiday but the other Queer tour guides have a fantastic round of talks happening on June 10th do go if you can.

[Tate @Tate]
