Tonight, Conservative MPs failed to back British farmers in Parliament.
The Liberal Democrats will keep fighting for farmers and pushing for the support our rural communities deserve.
Anna Sabine MP retweeted
Farmers have been left high and dry by the SFI shambles - a policy appallingly designed by the Conservatives and woefully implemented by Labour.
Today, @LibDems led a debate in Parliament calling for proper support for farmers to protect our environment AND produce food.

It’s a close call, but I think this could be worse for the arts than Lisa Nandy not going to a Prom…
We will cut the arts & culture budget by £1bn in order to fund 50,000 prison places. Keeping rapists and other dangerous offenders locked up is a priority for the @Conservatives. We will always put community safety first.
@RichmoMusic If you need help understanding the numbers, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. Always happy to talk you through.

This report is absolutely chilling and terrifying for those of us of colour in this country.
That's why I will keep fighting every single day for tolerance, decency and valuing the dignity of every human.
We need to keep these despicable individuals and their party out of power – at Richmond, London

The fight for better press regulation continues.
@anna4fes has secured a meeting with Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy, alongside @officialtulisa, after raising the issue in Parliament.
Lib Dems will keep pushing for Leveson’s recommendations to be implemented and a Part Two inquiry.

I hope this does see the end of talk about a leadership challenge. All would agree with the need to constantly improve the performance of the party and some of that means making changes, but simply replacing the leader isn't the answer.

This from a Tory MP who had 6 leaders in 10 years 🙄

Russian meddles in every election to promote its interests. It is still shocking to hear the PM saying that a foreign power interfered in the most consequential vote in modern British history.
It was never in Britain's interests to leave the EU but it was certainly in Putin's. – at Newhaven, England

Exactly. Developers miss the targets they agreed with Government, yet face no meaningful consequences.
Nothing has changed. It's business as usual and an unrelenting focus on the needs of industry.
And Labour insists the building safety crisis has not been deprioritised...
Anna Sabine MP retweeted
Beyond shocked and appalled at this.
@EdwardJDavey has my full support and that of the vast majority of MPs.
All our focus should be on fighting the populists who are trying to tear our nation apart, rather than trying to tear ourselves apart. – at Richmond, London
A senior Liberal Democrat MP has launched an attempt to oust party leader Ed Davey amid frustration over the party’s falling poll ratings.

A Lib Dem MP writes: "When part of Charlie Maynard's complaint is we're not getting the coverage we want, timing his letter to drop on a morning when every single headline was about the implosion of the Greens seems like self-flagellation."

Confirmed: Lib Dem Treasury spokesperson Charlie Maynard resigned this morning (as reported first by @PickardJE).
There's been a big row in the Lib Dem WhatsApp group over the move - and talk of a showdown at next Tuesday's parliamentary party meeting.
Daisy Cooper, the Lib Dem deputy leader, has quickly moved to back Davey, in a bid to quell any further leadership manoeuvring.
She says in a statement: "The vast majority of our MPs support Ed, want him to lead the party into the next election, and are furious at this distraction."
She adds: "We Liberal Democrats are the last line of defence against a Reform UK government, and Ed is determined to lead a strong and united party into the next general election whenever it comes.
"As Ed said at conference we are in the fight of our lives against the right who want to turn our country into their version of Trump's America."

One headline can turn a life upside down.
@anna4fes and @officialtulisa are calling for Leveson’s recommendations to be implemented in full and Part Two of the Inquiry to go ahead.

Yet again, schools left high & dry. Talk to any headteacher or school governor. They'll tell you there's nothing left to cut or "efficiency" to find.
Our children are paying the price for unfunded promises: teaching budgets and extracurriculars slashed.
Labour must do better. – at Richmond, London

Did I say that?
Badenoch says her air defence plan "is not going to be exactly like the Irone Dome. We haven’t called it an Iron Dome."
Except this is what it said in the press release.

Just another gimmick from a party that has lost all credibility on defence. £10bn wouldn't even touch the sides for a complete UK-wide 'Iron Dome'.
The Tories need to review their dodgy sums or be honest about which parts of the country their Patchwork Dome wouldn’t cover. – at Newhaven, England

Oh come on Nick - don’t be so simplistic.
Giving all young people opportunities in arts, culture, music and sport is one of the best ways to help them reach their potential, find their passion, give them focus and drive.
There’s far more to the Arts Council than galleries
