Some good changes in this review but… where will new teachers come from? Who will pay for them? How will schools fit new subjects into a packed day? Equal status for languages, culture, arts, nature, adventure, sports & life skills but how will it happen?

Liberal Democrat MPs just defeated Nigel Farage’s Bill in Parliament to tear up people’s rights and withdraw from the ECHR. Farage wants to do away with the Britain Churchill built and turn it into Trump's America. We won't let him.

Taking the money, not doing the job. Nothing new here. Shades of the European Parliament when he attended ONE out of 42 meetings. Took the pay and takes the pension though. He’s a disgrace and a grifter.
🚨 NEW: Nigel Farage has not applied for a PMQs question since July It comes after he watched yesterday’s PMQs from the spectators’ gallery in protest of never having a “right of reply”

The ceasefire is on. The world’s media is in Israel and we have spent much time understanding the suffering of the hostage families. But the journalism in Gaza is being done only by surviving Palestinian journalists. The world’s media must be allowed into Gaza now to report the

We are overtaking the Conservatives and on the cusp of overtaking Labour too. More and more people are backing the Liberal Democrats to stand up to Reform and stop Trump’s America becoming Farage’s Britain.

The UK’s recognition of a Palestinian state today is historic. A lasting peace through a two-state solution is the only way to guarantee the security and dignity which both Palestinians and Israelis deserve. This step is long overdue.

The hardest thing in the world is telling your three year old daughter she won’t ever see her Daddy again. Politics aside, my heart goes out to Erika Kirk and her children. And to every family torn apart by gun violence. Every one of them a tragedy.

Tonight Parliament failed disabled people. 🥀 Labour voted down my amendment to scrap unfair bus pass restrictions. 🌳 The Conservatives whipped their MPs to abstain. 🚌 This isn’t good enough. I won’t stop until disabled people get the fair, accessible transport they deserve.

Deluded, disrespectful and downright dangerous, this lot should be nowhere near the levers of power.

Whether talking about climate change or health, Reform continue to pedal anti-science conspiracy theories like the quacks that they are. They are deluded and should not be anywhere near power. This kind of health misinformation is dangerous.

Netanyahu's assault on Gaza City will only deepen the cycle of violence, worsen the death and suffering, and put hostages lives at greater risk. Donald Trump could stop this now by picking up the phone today. Keir Starmer must use whatever influence he has to make that happen.
