Proud to be at @readingprideuk.bsky.social with @pluslibdems.bsky.social today painting the town pastel and rainbow. Trans+ rights are human rights, now and always. Wonderful to see so many people at Pride too. 🧡

We're delighted and humbled that @readingprideuk.bsky.social have decided we, along with the local branch of the Green Party, can attend Reading #Pride in #RdgUK this summer. 🧡💚

We'll see everyone there in a month's time - but we're in the fight for LGBT+ equality for the long haul. 💪
A graphic panel from Reading Pride, with their logo at the top, entitled 'Our response to an open letter | Political Parties at Pride' in navy blue and pink. Beneath, the body text: 'We approached political parties who wanted to join us at Pride earlier this year and asked them to first demonstrate tangible, local commitments to protecting and advancing trans rights, as well as safeguarding practical EDI initiatives. 'From discussions held over the last few months, Trustees have agreed that the Green Party and Liberal Democrats are welcome to attend as allies in recognition of their positive support, in contrast to Labour and the Conservative parties.' At the bottom is a white arrow pointing to the right, in a magenta circle.

Five years ago, the murders of David, James and Joe shocked Reading, and the world.

They were kind, popular members of our community taken from it far too soon. Today, Reading remembers them. Each of them made Reading that much better, and they are deeply missed.

Love from us to all who knew them.

Eid al-Adha mubarak to everyone celebrating!
The words Eid al-Adha Mubarak in gold, on a texured dark green background. The 'Eid al-Adha' is in a curling Arabesque font. There is a silhouette of a goat, also in gold, beneath, casting its shadow in dark green on the background. Beneath is the bird-of-liberty logo of the Liberal Democrats.

Today is the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia. #Idahobit

We're proud that Reading #RdgUK is a town that has always stood clearly against these things in recent decades. Our party does too, and so do we. Our work isn't done though. We're with you. 🔶🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

A sad day for many - his compassion will be missed.

Our thoughts are with millions who are worried about what the future will hold, and whether their humanity will be celebrated or trampled by those in power.

There is entirely too much trampling going on at the moment. Keep uplifting each other. 💛
Pope Francis' passing is a profound loss to millions across the world. He was a leader of compassion and courage, speaking up for those in need and calling for peace in a world too often divided. His influence reached far beyond the Church. He offered hope by reminding us of the strength in kindness and faith. We should remember his example: stand up for what's right, care for others, and hold onto compassion and hope. - Ed Davey, Leader of the Liberal Democrats
