Very moving to listen to the Last Post, followed by the bells of Big Ben, before taking part in the two minute silence to mark the 11th of the 11th of the 11th.

We will remember them.

[Ed Davey @EdwardJDavey]

Today, we pause to remember the incredible bravery of all those who gave their lives for our country. It is because of their sacrifice that we enjoy the freedoms we have today. We owe them an eternal debt of gratitude.

We will remember them.

Moscow mass raid: Around 200 young people, including children, were detained. Those who were of military age say they were handed draft notices or pressured to sign contracts to fight in Ukraine.

Our negotiating team is already in the United Arab Emirates. The first meeting is tomorrow. Our European partners will also be there, and we will have separate formats with them. All of them must serve one purpose: bringing real peace closer.

At the meetings in Abu Dhabi, our team will propose de-escalatory steps, and there must be an understanding of how to arrange a trilateral meeting at the leaders’ level to bring this war to an end fairly and for real.

Peace is needed. Security guarantees are needed. Real resources for Ukraine’s postwar recovery are needed.

York Liberal Democrats have launched their Six to Fix. Six priorities a Liberal Democrat administration will focus on if elected next May.

From fixing potholes and backing neighbourhoods to building the right homes and getting a better deal for York.

On this Remembrance Sunday, we pause to honour those who made the ultimate sacrifice to defend our freedoms. We owe our service personnel, past and present, a debt that can never truly be repaid, and we will never take their courage for granted.

🇺🇦🇷🇺🚀🔥‼️ UKRAINE REPORTEDLY STRIKES SEVEN RUSSIAN OIL REFINERIES IN JUST NINE DAYS!

Over the past nine days, Ukrainian Armed Forces have reportedly carried out strikes against seven oil refineries across Russia, using kamikaze drones and compact cruise missiles.

The reported attacks reflect Ukraine’s continued campaign against Russian energy infrastructure, with long-range strike systems reaching targets deep inside Russian territory.

🔥 Repeated strikes on oil refineries could disrupt fuel production, increase repair costs and place additional pressure on Russia’s energy sector.

By targeting multiple facilities within a short period, Ukraine is also seeking to stretch Russian air defenses and complicate Moscow’s efforts to protect strategically important infrastructure.

Truly inspirational.

The way @anna4fes has not only recovered from her setback but also used it to raise awareness has been remarkable.

An absolute car crash interview from the Secretary of State.

Angela Eagle couldn't spell out a single power these councils will have to stop our waterways being trashed - and there's no sight of the long-promised Water Bill to deliver reform.

Brexit has robbed the potential of our economy.

Our country’s opportunities have been weighted down since leaving the European Union.

@AlPinkerton explains how.

🧵 This is another hammer blow to families already struggling with living costs.

The unfair mortgage hit awaiting millions has Trump’s name all over it. His reckless Iran war, backed by the Tories and Reform UK, sent energy prices soaring. Now it's pushing up mortgage bills.

[Liberal Democrats @LibDems]

Donald Trump’s reckless Iran war has sent energy and fuel prices soaring.

And now it's pushing up people's mortgage bills through higher inflation and interest rates.

Labour promised to fix an unelected House of Lords

Mark Pack challenged the minister on why voters still have no say over who sits in the Lords, and pressed the government to commit to an elected chamber.

@markpack

[Ed Davey @EdwardJDavey]

The US elections show that right-wing populism can be defeated. We must not let Trump's brand of toxic, divisive politics take root here in the UK.

That is Trump's America, we can't let it become Farage's Britain.

How could the government reduce energy prices?

@HelenMiller_IFS untangles electricity levies and their implications for prices, as well as the options available to the government, at a Treasury Select Committee @HoCcommitteesUK session on Tuesday:

[Ed Davey @EdwardJDavey]

Today's deal to cut some of the Brexit red tape is a good step, but it won't fix the problem.

If the Prime Minister is serious about cutting food bills and saving our farmers, he needs to be bolder: scrap Labour's red lines and take us into the single market and a customs union.

[Defense of Ukraine @DefenceU]

Russian losses have now risen for three months in a row, from 42,020 in August to 46,230 in September and a record 54,400 killed or seriously wounded in October:

- Above 1,750 per day on average
- Over 2,000 on five separate days
- 381,300 lost since the start of 2026

Ukraine also liberated 96.2 sq km last month, 10.4 sq km more than Russia captured.

October in numbers:

Today’s US midterms aren’t an isolated event across the Atlantic.

That politics is taking root here with Nigel Farage’s Reform party, stoking anger and division. It is the worst of Trump’s America; we must never let it become Farage’s Britain.

[Lib Dem Peers @LibDemPeers]

16 and 17-year-olds are ready to vote, and the bill now before the Lords would finally let them.

William Wallace spent last spring visiting secondary schools and found young people serious about politics and keen to take part.

Following years of campaigning from the Liberal Democrats, the Government has pledged today to introduce legislation ensuring young disabled people can access their Child Trust Fund savings.

A huge campaign win for @JohnMilneLD
