Ginny cares for her husband Tim, who has myotonic dystrophy. She works part-time, on top of caring for him every day.
Now, under the Government’s PIP changes, they face losing £12,000 a year. Today I asked the Prime Minister: what does he expect carers like Ginny to do?

As someone from an immigrant background, I am deeply insulted by Starmer's comments. This kind of hateful language just demonises and scapegoats immigrants even more.
Keir Starmer says immigration system is “almost designed to permit abuse” and that it risks “pulling the country apart”.
PM says UK needs tougher rules to reduce immigration significantly or it risks becoming “an island of strangers”.

The most recent YouGov poll says that more 2024 Labour voters would vote Lib Dem (15%) than Reform (12%). Moving to the right is only going to do even more damage to Labour's voter base.
On another note, Lib Dems joint first among 18-24 year olds 😍🔶

Daisy is correct and this is a completely stupid thing to say. How can you say something like this when hardly 10% of Council seats have been called??
'Please just be honest with me. I like you anyway, but this is a shocking night, isn't it?'

The proposal to test trans kids for autism smacks of the politics of RFK Junior. It pathologises two groups that deserve protection by the NHS (trans kids and autistic ones) in an attempt to remove their bodily autonomy. We should all see this for what it is: something that has no place in the UK.

claiming all trans ppl are autistic is functionally the same as claiming all gay ppl are mentally ill.
it's about denying queer ppl autonomy and a voice.

The rise in hate crimes, including in North Yorkshire, should alarm us all.
Upcoming EHCR guidance must recognise trans people’s existence, prioritise their safety, and inclusion.

When he came to office, Keir Starmer promised a government that would "tread more lightly" on people's lives.
Bridget Phillipson's announcement that trans folks should use the wrong toilets is offensive and ignorant.
It shows Labour to be no better than the US Republicans. They should be ashamed.

It is so deeply shameful that the Labour Party, which is meant to have traditionally centre-left social democratic roots, is now swinging to the right on many issues, all in the name of appeasing Reform voters.

The nationalities of foreign criminals in the UK are due to be published for the first time, under plans to be disclosed by the Home Office.

Far from being feminist, assuming people are 'male until proven otherwise' is about as patriarchal as you can get.
This Labour government is monstrous. Performative cruelty in a red tie is as bad as performative cruelty in a blue one. Worse, as they led us to expect better. 🥀

For trans people, today’s Supreme Court ruling on the Equality Act isn’t just a legal ruling but a decision that creates genuine fear about everyday aspects of life—accessing services, using facilities, and simply being accepted for who you are.

Nothing they rule will change our solidarity with the trans+ community and with everyone who seeks to live their lives under control of their own bodies, and free from poverty, ignorance or conformity.

One way to reduce the alarming levels of child poverty that we see in Liverpool is to scrap the two child benefit cap, something that Lib Dem MPs have consistently called for.
It is therefore extremely disappointing that only one of Liverpool's 5 Labour MPs voted to scrap it last year.
