Fun fact:
Since the last LEs, the @LibDems have won as many council by elections as the Tories, Labour, The Greens, The SNP and Plaid Cymru COMBINED.
We are the real effective, progressive opposition to Reform.

There are (at least!) 2 other unapologetically queer people on my bus in smalltown Bedfordshire this morning and it's putting me in a gloriously optimistic mood for the day.

In truth, every single major piece of legislation ought to be this somberly undertaken, this well attended, this carefully considered, and this passionately, but cordially, argued.
If our elected chamber can be what we witnessed today, why can't it all the time?

Congratulations to an extraordinarily hard working and effective MP. One of the absolute best!
So honoured to have won the Patchwork Foundation’s Other Party MP of the Year Award! They’re know for making politics, policy and democracy open to everyone which is why I’m deeply honoured to receive an award from them recognising my own work raising voices of those too often not listened to.
