It’s time we started taking Trump’s threats seriously.
God forbid if Greenland is attacked, the UK should immediately sanction the Trump Organization and think twice about whether we want US forces on our soil at all.

🍻This is literally the last chance saloon for our treasured pubs and high streets so the government must u-turn today. These businesses are worried sick, making decisions now, and can't wait a minute longer.
🚨 NEW: The Government is now preparing a u-turn on business rates for pubs, which will be published in the coming days

The world changed this weekend, and it will change again - very quickly. Listen to my challenge to the Foreign Secretary on Trump’s actions in Venuezela.

It's now clear that this was never about the interests of the Venezuelan people or the wider world. This is Trump serving his own interests and ego, making the world far more dangerous in the process. Starmer must convene the UN Security Council to hold Trump to account.

Keir Starmer should condemn Trump’s illegal action in Venezuela.
Maduro is a brutal and illegitimate dictator, but unlawful attacks like this make us all less safe.
Trump is giving a green light to the likes of Putin and Xi to attack other countries with impunity.

After Friday’s higher business rates bills bombshell, I’m calling on the Chancellor to throw our high streets a lifeline by:
✂️using new powers to lower high street (RLH) business rates by the full 20p

⚠️ WOW. High streets are being hit with a business rates bombshell.
The Chancellor has serious questions to answer:
❓How many businesses will pay rates for the first time?
❓How many will see bills go up?
❓Why isn’t she using the powers she gave herself to help high streets?

The botched Budget made the wrong tax choices, and was a missed opportunity to tackle the £90 billion Brexit black hole.

It's time for Labour to stop being so timid and fix the damage done by the Conservatives' botched Brexit deal.
That is the best way to boost growth, put money in people's pockets and properly fund our public services.

⚠️🍺 Will there be more smoke and mirrors on business rates changes in the Budget this week?
Even if the Government lowers the business rate multipliers, any benefit could be wiped out by higher valuations, due to be published on Budget Day.
I’ve asked the Government to publish the data ASAP

High streets are struggling, with pubs, restaurants and cafés shutting their doors.
Cutting VAT on hospitality and energy would put money back in people’s pockets, support local jobs, and give the country a much-needed boost.

We @libdems.org.uk would put £270 back in your pocket, by:
🍻 Cutting VAT for hospitality, attractions and accommodation
💡Slashing household energy bills
We’d fund this through a windfall tax on excess profits made by big banks, rather than higher taxes for struggling families and businesses.

A damning indictment of Labour’s decisions.
From the jobs tax to business rates bills, the economy is barely spluttering along.
The Government must take up our plans to save our high streets, put money back in the pockets of families, and fix our broken relationship with Europe.

This wasn’t pitch rolling, it was pointless. The Budget will be a bitter pill to swallow as the Government seems to have run out of excuses.
We can’t keep punishing households, high streets and hospices whilst big banks and social media giants don't pay their fair share.
