Three quarters of Brits are worried about maternity care standards. Every mother deserves safe care. That's why the Liberal Democrats are calling for urgent action to improve maternity services. Swipe to read our plan.

Brexit is costing the UK £250 million a day in lost tax revenue. The UK’s best future lies back in the EU, and the Liberal Democrats have a credible plan to get there - starting with the UK joining the single market and customs union.

Rachel Johnson who was interviewing her didn't push back at all and even seemed to be agreeing with her. Here's a fuller account from the police. Absolutely scandalous that an MP is not condemning this act of terrorism
Detective Chief Superintendent James
Derham, who leads local policing in the
Bexley area, said: "It was miraculous
that nobody was killed or seriously
injured in the large explosion caused
by Rees


"He showed a complete disregard for
the welfare and safety of the people
who live in, or were travelling through,
the area at the time of the explosion -
all because he was unhappy with the
ULEZ scheme


"CCTV from a bus travelling down the
road at the time shows how it narrowly
missed the blast of debris by seconds

A man builds an IED. He sets it off in a busy public street. Shrapnel flies about hitting cars, homes and a child's bedroom. It's a miracle nobody is injured. And Reform MP Sarah Pochin calls his imprisonment "disproportionate" and "two tier justice."
It does raise this point of two-tiered
justice..


Reform's Sarah Pochin believes the
sentence handed to the 64-year-old who
blew up a ULEZ camera was
disproportionate'.
