So so sad to read this. Baroness Newlove was a tireless advocate for victims of crime who so inspirationally turned her own tragedy into purpose. She was an absolute warrior and her recent speech at our parliamentary summit meant so much to the fraud victims she supported. RIP
We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Baroness Newlove. Helen was a tireless advocate for victims who challenged justice agencies to treat victims with the compassion, decency and respect they deserve. She'll be greatly missed. Full statement: https://t.co/xn19UFLHfr

Tragic news from my home town #bicester. So sad to hear two brave firefighters have lost their lives along with one local resident. Prayers for the family and those fighting for their lives in hospital. We will lay flowers. RIP angels #bicester
Our thoughts and condolences go out to the family, friends and colleagues of the 2 Fire Fighters and member of the public who sadly died in the line of duty today while fighting a fire at the former RAF Bicester site.

Incredibly important to note that this scandal impacts good hardworking people from all walks of life including many pension savers who are struggling under the immense strain of these liabilities. Time for a change of approach I hope that this committee will help achieve that.

Proud to be featured in this article in the @dailytelegraph and to stand alongside the @VictimsComm and cross-party MPs and advocates calling for reforms in respect of the tax treatment of fraud victims- a terrible scandal that I hope the government will now address
Victims of fraud are victims first and foremost. Yet they are being treated like tax avoiders by HMRC, taxed on money lost to scams. It’s retraumatising, unjust and must stop—that’s why I’ve written to the Chancellor, setting out my concerns. 🔗 https://t.co/qflMiwEQkV

I'm hugely honoured to be appointed Mental Health Spokesperson for the Lib Dems. This is an issue close to my heart. I've lost too many colleagues to suicide. Seeing those around me struggle lead me to be a trustee of a mental health charity for several years. More here ⬇️

Preying for all those affected by this awful incident and desperately hope all involved make it home safely. Please see 👇 Southport is a wonderful community. It was Craig’s home whilst at Everton. Thoughts with all affected & the emergency services #southport ❤️
Horrifying news from Southport. If you're sitting at home wondering how you might be able to help the victims, donating blood is one way you could help. National blood stocks especially of group O blood are low, and whatever you can give will help.

Heartbreaking to see Jasper burnt to the ground. I spent some great times in Canada. Hoping and preying this improves. It looks sadly like Maui

Andrea is one of tens of thousands of carers hit by unfair repayment demands from the DWP, for going just a few pounds over an arbitrary earnings limit. Today I asked the Prime Minister to meet with me and other family carers to discuss how to resolve this scandal.
