We’re excited to announce that tomorrow, Chris Huhne, former MP, Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, and coalition negotiator, will be giving a talk to the UCL Lib Dems! This should be a really exciting event.
Join us at 6pm at the IOE, Bedford Way, Room 537.
We are delighted to announce we have selected former Hampstead Town councillor Linda Chung, @LCinNW, to fight the upcoming by-election in the ward.
Linda is a dedicated community campaigner who knows how to get things done and will put residents first.

Big team out in Hampstead Town, kicking off our campaign to elect Linda Chung to represent the area again.
The recently elected Labour councillor abandoned the seat and Linda has a tradition of beating the Conservatives in this area.
Linda would be a brilliant councillor.
Thanks everyone who joined us! We had a great time - lots of people fed up with the Conservatives, and Labour voters lending us their votes to kick the Tories out. We’re rooting for @BarnetLibDems!
Finally, as Liberal Democrats, this assault of human rights goes against our fundamental values as a party. If this decision has shocked you as much as it shocks us, please consider joining us and lending your support.

Disappointed that UCL has decided LGBTQ+ lives and trans lives especially are less important than “debate” about “sex based rights”. In a time of sustained assault on LGBTQ+ rights, UCL is sending a message that transphobia is acceptable under the guise of academic freedom. 🧵1/7
UCL have decided not to re-join Stonewall’s Diversity Champions scheme or make a submission to the Workplace Equality Index. We find this decision extremely disappointing, one we know will have a serious impact on our trans community in particular. https://t.co/O9pxmjdj8z

We're so excited to finally announce that Young Liberals' Winter Conference will take place on the 11th-13th of February 2022 in Edinburgh, Scotland! Tickets will be available soon, we can't wait to see you there! 🏴🔶️
If this annoys you as much as it annoys us, put that anger to good use. Get to North Shropshire and help to send the Tories a message by getting a Lib Dem MP elected.
Reminder: Spirited Discussions is tomorrow (Tuesday) at 7pm, where we'll be talking about drug legalisation! Catch us in G20 Bentham House. More info:

It’s been cold but definitely worth it for the response on the door (and the very cute dog we saw today)!
We’ll be planning more sessions in the future so keep an eye out for more info!
