"I think that sort of barbarity is not something that is true to British values, and so we will oppose that."

The UK can't be dragged into another protracted Middle Eastern war by a US President.
As an MP I have spoken to countless families across #StratfordonAvon supporting children with SEND.
📝The government has launched its consultation, so I urge families and young people to respond👇
✅️Consultation: SEND reform - Department for Education:

Wishing a very happy new year to Chinese, Korean and Vietnamese communities in the UK and to everyone who is celebrating the Lunar New Year.
May it be a time of joy and celebration for you and your family.
Wishing all those celebrating in my constituency and beyond, a healthy and blessed Ramadan.
Last week we gave evidence about the importance of Shakespeare in education to the Shakespeare APPG, chaired by our local MP @mp4stratford.bsky.social
Months ago, @eddavey.libdems.org.uk asked the Prime Minister a simple question: why did he keep backing Mandelson despite his Epstein links, and what leverage might the Trump administration have over him?
Instead of answering, he waved it away.
The SEND system isn’t working, not for students, their families, or their teachers.
It’s time to stop tinkering at the edges and start transforming our education system.
A new Department for Growth with a mandate to boost long-term prosperity, improve living standards and end the cost of living crisis.
This is the beginning of our plan to Get Britain Growing Again.
When those in public office aren’t properly vetted or held to a duty of candour, public trust is destroyed.
There must be no more delays to the Hillsborough Law.
Guardian editorial backs Daisy Cooper's speech setting out our bold plan to break up the Treasury to boost growth 📈
Thank you, Kirk. I will be launching a new website soon, will announce hopefully in the next few weeks.
The United Kingdom is at its best when we’re true to our values: tolerance, decency, respect for individual freedom and the rule of law.
We can't let Nigel Farage throw that all away by turning Britain into Trump’s America.
Choose a brighter future with the Liberal Democrats.
How dare the Coward in the White House undermine the bravery and sacrifice of our British troops.
You would need to invite me by writing to manuela.perteghella.mp@parliament.uk
Thanks
Here's my statement regarding the vote this evening in the House of Lords to back a ban for under 16s from social media 👇🏽
@libdems.org.uk will always put the wellbeing of our children and young people above party politics.
Agree, and I have written to the ICB about extending days and times for the Minor Injuries Unit.
If only we could have our beds back at the Ellen Badger Hospital!

Our model would echo the film and video classification system established in the 1980s, adapting a trusted framework for the digital age.
The new ratings would be enforced by Ofcom, which would be handed powers to fast-track fines and business disruption orders on platforms that don’t comply.
We have age ratings for films to protect children from violence and other harmful content. Why not do the same with social media websites?
Our policy would keep the internet open and keep children safe from Elon’s Chainsaw Massacre.
Watching the Jenrick Press Conference:
Really hoping a journalist asks him in the manner of Mrs Merton:
"What was it about losing the Tory leadership contest that helped you realise that the Tories had broken Britain?"
Well well well...
That tells us everything we need to know about Reform, which is quickly becoming a retirement home for disgraced former Conservative ministers.
If Mr Zahawi decides to stand for elected office here in Stratford-on-Avon, I can only say
Bring it on! 💪🔶️
Got it 👍
