It is time the government understands the science and maths and acts upon it now, immediately, rather than delaying and wasting the lives of tens of thousands of our fellow citizens and workers here in London and across UK. #COVID19 #CircuitBreaker #CircuitBreak

As Brexit returns to the spotlight, I wanted to share my thoughts on the UK's future relationship with Europe.
Brexit has been a disaster for businesses of all sizes, including for many in Wimbledon. We must begin the difficult work of rebuilding with our nearest trading partner.

🚨 NEW: Tom Morrison backs Ed Davey amid leadership challenge
In 2024, our party had its greatest election. @EdwardJDavey led us to huge gains. And did it whilst being a decent, caring and thoughtful person in a political world that is often characterised by backstabbing and deceit. He is the right person to take us even further.

Brexit cost an estimated £90 billion in lost tax revenue in 2025 alone. That money could have eased the tax burden on working people and funded our NHS and public services.
I welcome the Prime Minister’s opening to Europe, but he must go further. Rejoining the single market and a customs union would bring growth and prosperity back to Britain.
With war in Europe and an unpredictable White House, our security also depends on standing with our closest neighbours - cross-border problems need cross-border solutions.

Questions over whether alleged abuse fell under military police’s jurisdiction is "travesty of justice"

Today @timleunig took his oath and joined the Lib Dem team in the Lords.
The economist spent over a decade in the civil service, advising two Chancellors and serving as chief scientific adviser at the Department for Education.
Now that expertise goes to work in the chamber.

England suffers worst harvest on record.
Any government knows national security in food and water is its top priority.
So little money has been allocated to farmers there's not enough to dig ponds and lakes now, to catch winter rain for summer crops.

Almost 7 years ago @EdwardJDavey came to #Alperton to back my campaign to get the @LibDems back onto Brent Council.
I now lead a Group of 11. The joint second largest in our local authority.
Without Ed’s steady leadership we wouldn’t be where we are. He has my full support.

This is ridiculous - Ed led is to our best result in 100 years. I won't be signing this letter.

For the avoidance of doubt, I won’t be signing this letter.
It’s a ridiculous distraction. Ed is clearly the best person to lead us to the next General Election and beyond, and like the overwhelming majority of my MP colleagues, I’m absolutely furious.

Ed Davey led the Lib Dems to our best election result in 100 years through a campaign that saw me - and many other new MPs - elected. At a time when other parties are led by fantasists and narcissists, many voters tell me they see Ed as a decent and caring man. They are right.

Not a lot surprises me in politics any more but this was a real shock. @EdwardJDavey is the most successful leader electorally in our party's history and has my full support. This move is poorly judged when we should be concentrating on defeating the far right. – at Newhaven, England

Fortunately @normanlamb did all the groundwork on this between ten and fifteen years ago. The principles haven't changed at all.

Welcome Raj Ghosh #Portsmouth’s newest @LibDems Cllr.

I've never felt so unsafe with my family in this country. As a Liberal Democrat, I'm proud we are the last line of defence against a Reform government and the politics of fear.
Ed led us to a historic win as Liberal Democrats, getting so many colleagues elected, and is fighting for this country's future.
Alongside many colleagues, I'm focused on delivering for local people, shaping our nation's future for the better and standing as a united party to take on the Right. I refuse to let Trump's America become Farage's Britain.

The Government of #Kenya has reported imported case of #Ebola caused by Bundibugyo virus, in a Kenyan citizen who had been living in the #DRC. The patient became ill in DRC and received treatment in several hospitals, then travelled from DRC to Nairobi via Kampala, Uganda. He died in Nairobi yesterday. My condolences to his family and loved ones.
@WHO is supporting the governments of Kenya, the DRC, and Uganda in contact tracing, surveillance, screening, and other response measures to rapidly identify potential cases and prevent further spread of the virus.
WHO advises against any restriction of travel to, or trade with, the affected countries based on the currently available information. We continue to closely monitor and, where necessary, verify travel and trade measures in relation to this epidemic. afro.who.int/countries/kenya…
