Really concerned to see Tommy Robinson launching a vile personal attack on the brilliant Daisy Cooper for asking about an important national security issue at PMQs. Very low.

There are two futures for UK energy:

Farage’s Trump-style Britain of high bills & climate chaos — or the Liberal Democrats plan, investing in the cheapest, cleanest sources of energy.

Let’s choose progress.

According to a Financial Times investigation, the Trump business has already reaped more than $1bn in pre-tax profits over the past year, in part thanks to a crypto boom fuelled by the administration’s own industry-friendly policies

They lie about the ECHR.
Just like they lied about Brexit. Claiming if we just got rid of that ‘European’ thing, we’d be free, we’d have control, all our problems solved…
It’s NOT TRUE.
We’d inflict more chaos on ourselves and torch our own human rights framework for NOTHING.
For liars.
Again.
The European Convention on Human Rights is being misrepresented in the UK, says former Supreme Court President Lady Hale👇

“It seems so short-sighted. I’m sorry, I’m really, really worried about it.”

#ECHR #OurRightsAndFreedoms
In a nutshell, ‘as well as losing their reciprocal rights to live and work in other European countries, British voters haven’t even seen lower levels of migration to Britain — creating a situation where nobody of any political persuasion is happy.’

THIS Jeremy Bentham? 😁 loved seeing him in a main ground floor corridor at UCL in the 80’s. Hope he’s still there!
Couldn’t agree more! It’s hard to beat an active day out enjoying our beautiful countryside ☺️

Elon Musk is stoking far-right extremism on our streets.

The Prime Minister should order a security assessment of the threat Musk poses to our democracy.
