Thousands of unpaid carers risk being pushed into poverty by the Government’s welfare reforms. I met with @CarersUK to stand against these cuts and highlight the vital work carers do #ProtectCarersBenefits

Hundreds out in the west end of #Newcastle. Amazing show of support from the local community protecting refugee support services. No sign of the far right here! #Riots #Solidarity #NoPasaran #RefugeesWelcomeHere

Good move for Govt to embrace #Universities sector as an ally rather than enemy as Tories did. Vital source of income as well as soft power & international students are its lifeblood. @LibDems @EdwardJDavey

Brilliant… now to get much better Deaf and Disabled representation.. We need people like @DavidBuxtondc and his talents to be able to get past the selection process as he would be a valid and strong candidate … keep going David

So far, we've got 66 #LGBT+ MPs in new the Parliament, including one co-leader of a party. That's just over 10% of parliament, which is more than the general population. So strong representation! Find them all here:

I’m missing our dear friends Paddy and Charles especially today. They would have loved these results – especially seeing the Liberal Democrats winning back their old seats in Somerset and the Highlands!

Last yr a woman told me she could never vote for me as I was “just a waitress with no qualifications” (I owned a catering biz) & she was disgusted by Angela R who she said “couldn’t control herself” (as a teen mum) Today I’m the local MP & AR is Dep PM. That’s real Levelling Up

We will be a loud voice in both Houses of Parliament. With @Conservatives in chaos @LibDems are now the only credible opposition. #GeneralElection #tacticalvoting

First Lib Dem gain of the night as Caroline Pidgeom peerage announced. She has an incredible track record of public service. I’m delighted to welcome her to the Lords, where I know she’ll be a brilliant advocate for a fairer society.

This thread for Billy Bragg explains how a great result for @LibDems could be transformative for our agenda of care, environment, internationalism, reducing inequality & electoral reform Pls make it happen - here in MDNP that means voting for me!

Everyone knows Labour are going to win the election, but if you’re feeling like there’s no point in voting as the outcome is a foregone conclusion, I’d like to draw your attention to something really radical that is on offer tomorrow: 1/8

Thank you to everyone who has pledged to lend me their vote from Labour, Greens, Conservatives, Independent & even Reform. I am truly humbled - hopefully this will reassure you. We need grown up politics if we are going to solve the problems in society …. #VoteVikki @LibDems
