Newly-elected Lib Dem president @joshbabarinde.bsky.social tells me he'll be "the last line of defence against Reform".

It's utterly unacceptable that penguins are kept in a cramped, windowless room at London’s Sea Life Aquarium. Denied fresh air, natural light and the space they need to thrive. I spoke on @lbc.co.uk about how their conditions are a world away from their Antarctic home.

Robbie Gibb was appointed to the BBC Board by Boris Johnson, was an editorial advisor for GB News, and worked as Theresa May's Director of Comms.
He is not impartial or neutral. The government should remove him from the Board immediately to protect the BBC's independence.

Keir Starmer needs to wake up and fix our broken voting system before the next election, or he risks letting Nigel Farage into Number 10.

The resignations of Tim Davie and Deborah Turness must be an opportunity for the BBC to turn a new leaf, rebuild trust and resist those like Nigel Farage who want to destroy it
We must stand up for a strong, independent BBC, to stop Trump’s America becoming Farage's Britain.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, we all waited for science to catch up. We waited for a vaccine, for hope.
When it finally arrived, the world changed almost overnight.
With HIV, TB and malaria, we don’t have to wait. The science is already there. The treatments already exist.

It’s outrageous that someone who sexually abuses an animal isn’t automatically put on the sex offenders register.
We know that people who abuse animals are far more likely to go on to commit domestic abuse and even to abuse children. 🧵

You can’t build good mental health on unstable foundations.

I really welcome this. Scaling up our military strength is not just about tanks and ships.
It is also about morale.
Our troops could be asked to put their lives on the line to protect us. The least we can do is give them somewhere decent to live.

We just defeated Nigel Farage’s Bill in Parliament to tear up people’s rights and withdraw from the ECHR.
Farage wants to do away with the Britain Churchill built and turn it into a version of Trump's America. We stopped him.

Parents tell me every single week about how hard they have to fight to get the SEND provision that their child is entitled to. I asked the Government what steps they're taking to ensure that Education, Health and Care Plans are issued in a timely manner.
