"I can't hold President Biden to account in this house, but I can hold our own government to account. I want to ask the PM, will he look our veterans and families of the fallen In the eye and tell them it was worth it now after his foreign policy catastrophe?" @EdwardJDavey

It's now or never to save innocent people from the Taliban's rule of terror. The UK Government must immediately commit to taking at least 20,000 refugees, prioritising those Women and Girls most in danger. https://t.co/ykmFB3Q1X9

Ministers are expected to announce a ‘bespoke’ scheme similar to that put in place for Syrians in 2014

A cliff-edge end to furlough could see millions of jobs lost and 1 in 16 businesses close. We need a long-term strategy to support jobs and livelihoods into next year. It must start with a furlough extension and the universal credit uplift made permanent. https://t.co/mlkfjitHPu

Winter will feel different this year as we cope with the challenges of coronavirus. But no one will feel the struggle of winter more than those who are homeless. ⬇️

Glad to have @EdwardJDavey visit to see a few of the things achieved here in Bournemouth while @vikki4mdnp was Leader of the Council.

so much for wanting real scrutiny...the Tories have just voted for themselves to be Vice Chair of @BCPCouncil O&S Board after nominating an independent when it is normal protocol for the O&S to be led by the opposition!!!

It is an absolute travesty for children to go hungry on any day of the year. In today's #PMQs, @libdemdaisy urged the Prime Minister to do the right thing and supply free school meals for the families who need it most. Back our campaign if you agree⬇️

The Conservatives’ decision to overturn these amendments to the #ImmigrationBill shows how empty their promises to guarantee citizens’ rights after Brexit and to fix the broken immigration system really are. https://t.co/m0LjYzGxFb

The Windrush Scandal showed the devastating impact of the Hostile Environment on people who cannot easily prove their rights. By denying EU citizens physical proof of Settled Status, the Government risks making them victims of a new Windrush-style Scandal. https://t.co/KkjL6fVS4I

The Government must: 🧪 Set up an effective test, trace & isolate system 🏠 Increase support for those who need to self-isolate & cannot work from home 💷 Expand furlough support until June 2021 https://t.co/uyXw4vNeFp

I want to talk about those forgotten in this pandemic. The long-term effect of the lack of support on people’s mental health is one consequence of this pandemic we're not taking seriously enough. Last week, I spoke about my constituent Christopher. Watch 👇

Imports must be to our standards? Absolutely, said @michaelgove *TWICE*. He guaranteed it. Yesterday he voted against. Watch. 👇😠

As a vet I'm bitterly disappointed Tory MPs voted against protecting #AnimalWelfare in future trade deals. Further confirmation that Tory promises are not worth the manifesto they're written in. Animals, consumers, farmers and the environment will all suffer. #AgricultureBill
On Monday, Conservative MPs must stand by their election promises to protect our animal welfare standards and support British farmers in trade deals. @LibDems MPs and @BritishSave are working to prevent low welfare imports such as chlorinated chicken and hormone treated beef.

We already have thousands of families struggling after suffering redundancies. The Govt must extend furlough immediately to save as many jobs as possible.
The number of redundancies reached its highest level since May to July 2009 and increased 114,000 on the quarter to 227,000 https://t.co/nGwaGs8fFg
