My favourite place.

So proud of the people of Newcastle

So proud to be a Geordie

"I don't want a small minority with right wing extremist intentions to hijack our flag. That's not who we are a a British people."

Reeves pushes for EU youth migration scheme ahead of Budget The chancellor calls for an 'ambitious' deal as she looks to boost growth ahead of the 26 November Budget.

It's 10 months since I introduced a Bill into parliament for a youth mobility scheme with EU countries.

Since then we've had warm words but no action. Again we're short of detail.

I hope this isn't another damp squib because our young people deserve better.

With the Lib Dems reportedly considering dropping opposition to ID cards, our most recent tracker poll found that 57% of Britons would support them, including 56% of Lib Dem voters

Good news.

Time for @rory-stewart.bsky.social to eat some humble pie and acknowledge Ed’s strengths and work ethic.

Farage is ‘unpatriotic’, Lib Dems claim as they step up fight against Reform Deputy leader Daisy Cooper said the Lib Dems would present themselves as the party of ‘positive patriotism’

Wanting the UK to succeed is patriotic.

Asking America to sanction us, like Farage did, isn’t.

That’s not love of our country - it’s sabotage.

Love this well done Ed.

Our flag does not belong to one creed or to one race. It belongs to one people, the British people.

We will not let our flag be used to intimidate.

Government needs to get its act together on infrastructure. Too complex. Too slow. Too fragmented.
Huge state failure leading to housing crisis for tens of millions.
Too easy to blame developers.

No it’s not.
Poor people are not poor because rich people are rich.
This kind of far left populist Corbynista nonsense doesn’t help anyone.

Russia, China and Iran Use Kirk’s Murder to Stoke Conspiracy Theories and Division State media and online trolls have seized on the assassination to score geopolitical points against the United States, according to a new report.

In the week since Charlie Kirk’s assassination, Russia, Iran and China have spread thousands of false or incendiary claims about what happened to the conservative activist, in an effort to stoke political divisions or to portray the U.S. as a dysfunctional country.

Elon Musk calls for dissolution of parliament at far-right rally in London US-based tech boss was addressing the ‘unite the kingdom’ protest organised by Tommy Robinson via video link

Elon Musk’s comments are a clear attempt to undermine our democracy.

We must all, regardless of political leaning, stand in joint condemnation of his comments.

No one, no matter how wealthy or powerful, should be allowed to get away with using their platform to incite violence.

"If you hold to those liberal beliefs which actually have made our country great, I think that's true patriotism."

@EdDavey.LibDems.org.uk

imagine getting qt dunked by ed davey. unrecoverable. you’re furious and he is serenely going down a log flume in bognor regis.

Liberal Democrat Leader Ed Davey has called on the Prime Minister to rule out any future contracts the Government could have with Tesla after Elon Musk told protesters to “fight back or die” and that “violence is coming” at the far-right rally over the weekend

The private family life of twice divorced Nigel Farage, who had children with both of his ex wives.... and now lives with his girlfriend.... is none of my business... just as the private family lives of everyone else are none of his.

Receipts. You know what I do with them, don't you?

Conservative MP Danny Kruger defects to Reform UK The East Wiltshire MP said the Conservatives were no longer the main party of opposition.

Reform UK once again demonstrate their commitment to improving the living standards and life chances of working class British people by poaching old Etonian Danny Kruger, also the son of a South African property developer, from the Conservative Party.

“Elon Musk openly called for violence on our streets yesterday. I hope politicians from all parties come together to condemn his deeply dangerous and irresponsible rhetoric. Britain must stand united against this clear attempt to undermine our democracy.” — Ed Davey.

Politicians from all parties must come together to condemn Elon Musk’s dangerous call for violence and make clear it has no place in our country.

A counter showing over 10,000 have backed the Lib Dem petition to balance the BBC. In the graphic is a stack of old TVs displaying Nigel Farage.

More and more people are backing our call to balance the BBC.

Our national broadcaster should be fair and balanced, not a mouthpiece for Nigel Farage and his 4 MPs.

A the guardian article graphic. TEXT: BBC under fresh pressure over extent of Reform UK coverage Nigel Farage’s party featured in considerably more News at Ten bulletins than Lib Dems over six months, study finds

Our national broadcaster should be reflective the whole country, not a mouthpiece for Nigel Farage.

The BBC must provide fair, balanced and representative journalism.

Coverage of Nigel Farage too often dominates the BBC.

We know it, you know it. It's time to balance the BBC

everyone panicking about what we're going to do about Reform.

nobody talking about how together we can coordinate to use elections to keep them out.

pssst 👉 stopreformuk.vote

so anyway, what are we going to do about Reform!?!

Starmer’s next sacking needs to be Morgan McSweeney.

Everyone has a shelf life. It’s remarkable how quickly McSweeney and his nonsense pro-Brexit me-too Reform policies have reached their sell-by date.

Time for fresh thinking to turn around this failing Labour government and our country.

Probably the most important but neglected scandal about Mandelson.

Epstein was close to Peter Thiel. Thiel had secret meetings with Cummings and Johnson before Palantir’s 100m contract

Mandelson’s Global Counsel was pitching Thiel’s Palantir to Starmer.

What a carousel of cronyism

I agree with #EdDavey:

“The facts don’t lie. The BBC is fuelling Reform’s rise by plastering Farage across our screens without providing the proper scrutiny the public deserves. We need the BBC to live up to its promise of accurate and impartial coverage that represents the whole of the UK...”

I try to avoid arguing with anonymous social media accounts but in your case I will make an exception.

I regret the murder of Charlie Kirk. Murder is unacceptable. I also strongly and deeply disagree with his opinions.

These two statements are wholly compatible.
