Labour suggestions that 13 year old children should have to have a digital ID card is simply wrong.

No one should be stuck in the awful position of waiting months on end for mental health services.
It's time to supercharge mental health care in this country.

Keir Starmer says everyone in the UK will be required to have mandatory digital ID. That’s not the kind of country we want to be.
Liberal Democrats have always stood up to defend civil liberties against government overreach.
We will fight tooth and nail to oppose these plans too.

Keir Starmer wants to force everyone to have a digital ID.
But the Liberal Democrats say that’s not the kind of country we should be. Instead, the government should focus on fixing real problems like the NHS and social care.

Youth work changes lives and makes a real difference in communities across the UK.
It gives young people a place to belong, build skills, and believe in themselves.
But over the last decade, we’ve seen too many youth centres close their doors and youth workers leave.

Across the country, people are being held back not by a lack of potential, but by a lack of access to the training they need to succeed.
From care homes to construction sites, clean energy to HGV driving, employers are facing critical skills shortages.

Hospices provide compassionate end of life care for hundreds of thousands of people each year, while easing pressure on overstretched NHS hospitals.
Yet years of underfunding and rising costs have left many at breaking point – with 7 in 10 warning they may have to cut services.
