Every week Lib Dems beat Reform in elections.
Not every time - but the vast majority of the time.
That's because most people know that we are a decent tolerant party - and they are willing to unify behind us, even if they usually vote Labour, Green or, sometimes, Conservative.

An investigation into Russian interference in our politics is long overdue. And we all know who should be questioned first.

The best way to understand what is actually “driving the small boats” is “if something carried a one in a 100 risk of death, would you do it it it gave you ten more years of healthy life?”

Nigel Farage thinks that young people don’t deserve the minimum wage. It’s just another example of how out of touch he is! Young people face such a high cost of living, especially with the cost of renting. Young people deserve to be paid well, we will not be exploited by Reform’s Fascist City Banker

Some honesty is needed about what the flags being put up around England are about. The march in London this weekend with known fascists like Tommy Robinson show that it’s not about patriotism, it’s about exclusion, hatred, and racism. That’s not what Britain is about.

Like Alex, I really like the idea of unitary authorities. However, as we go through the process it’s increasingly clear that the Labour Government haven’t put enough thought into it. It feels like it’s being rushed through for supposed cost savings, not to make local government work the best it can.
I used to really support the idea of unitary councils but I I'm becoming more and more worried about LGR. It's being pushed solely for cost cutting, giving little to no thought as to how to improve services for residents. All it seems to be achieving is earning some consultants a lot of money!

Netanyahu’s plan to occupy Gaza is abhorrent and it's increasingly clear that his goal is ethnic cleansing.
The UK can't just sit on its hands. The Prime Minister must stop all arms exports to Israel and sanction Netanyahu and his cabinet.

Time and time again, the Prime Minister says the situation in Gaza is intolerable… but he keeps on tolerating it.
Palestinian statehood was literally in his own manifesto, so why won’t he recognise it now? I wonder if Donald Trump is stopping him.

The war in Gaza must end.
Since April, I’ve spoken on this issue nine times in the House of Commons. The government must do more to help bring an end to the conflict and to secure the safe release of all hostages. The war must stop.
