Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 4hWe need real action from the Prime Minister on Europe, not more hesitation. The Liberal Democrats have a plan to strengthen our economy, cut living costs, and boost defence by rejoining the Single Market, Customs Union, and working with European partners on security. These issues cannot wait. 76017
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 28/09/2026The Chancellor could cut petrol & diesel prices by 12p a litre right now with our plan. But on the day diesel hits a new record? Nothing from John Healey in his speech. I’m really worried the government just doesn’t understand the scale of this crisis. 335913
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 27/09/2026I really hope the PM is serious about fixing care, and he can show it by getting on with the cross-party talks we started in July. This can’t just be a series of No10 headlines with no real action. I’ll do everything I can to put family carers at the heart of any solution. 1732554
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 25/09/2026They will try to break our country, we will stop them. 712432
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 24/09/2026The people developing super-intelligent AI have warned it could kill us all. We can’t leave the future of humanity in the hands of Trump or the tech billionaires. We need a global treaty to press pause before it’s too late. 99225
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 23/09/2026Britain feels broken because it is being held back. People feel powerless, and they can't hold the powerful to account. Liberal Democrats want to change our politics so that, together, we can fix our country. 77728
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 23/09/2026We will cut income tax by raising the personal allowance, and take 750,000 ordinary people out of paying the higher 40p rate. 125018
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 22/09/2026This is the fight of our lives and we are going to win it! 98717
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 22/09/2026Standing here on Brighton beach, I know this is the fight of our lives. Now more than ever, we must offer real hope and fix Britain's broken political system together. 59620
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 21/09/2026Andy Burnham must stand up to Trump like Mark Carney, not suck up to him like Keir Starmer. 915433
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 20/09/2026Brilliant to join Paddle UK, Surfers Against Sewage, Marine Conservation Society, and Rewilding Britain on Brighton Beach this morning for a beach clean. Great turnout and we are committed to protecting our coastlines and water. 611127
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 19/09/2026A brilliant start to the Lib Dem Party Conference in Brighton! Serving up fresh fish and chips to our fantastic local party activists and supporters. Ready for a great week ahead by the coast. 69511
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 17/09/2026The threats we face here in the UK – from populism, from Trump, from Putin – are shared by our friends around the world. It was great to join fellow leaders at Liberal International's Security Conference to discuss how we work together to defend liberal values. 512323
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 16/09/2026Conference season has officially begun! Can’t wait to see everyone in Brighton. The cost of living. The NHS. Our democracy under threat from populism and billionaires trying to buy it. These are the fights that matter – and we’re taking them on. 68014
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 14/09/2026My heart goes out to the Prime Minister on the loss of his dad. From our conversations he sounded like a wonderful man. My prayers are with his whole family as they mourn together. 12116793
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 11/09/202625 years after 9/11, I still feel that overwhelming mix of shock, grief and outrage. Today we remember the thousands cruelly murdered by terrorists. We pray for the families, survivors and all our American friends. And we stand united against terror, and in defence of freedom. 419226
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 09/09/2026 A big step forward for disabled young people and their carers today: the House of Lords passed our law to make it easier for them to access their Child Trust Funds. This has been a long battle for me and many parents. I really hope Labour MPs don’t overturn our amendment. 214925
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 09/09/2026Donald Trump is trying to bully AI firms not to engage with Britain’s AI Safety Institute. He’s making the world less safe. The UK must stand up to him. 219049
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 07/09/2026I’ve been hearing from farmers about the devastating impact of bluetongue on top of this year’s droughts. We are calling on the government to set up an urgent taskforce, speed up vaccines, and support British farmers to feed our nation. 511328
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 06/09/2026Women are suffering horrific injuries and dying in childbirth. This national scandal cannot continue. This week, we’ll force a vote in Parliament to demand safer maternity care for every mum. Britain must be the safest place to have a baby. 1117544
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 04/09/2026Three senior Reform figures were involved in those Channel 4 revelations we saw last night. Two have been kicked out. The third is Nigel Farage. Farage should be suspended while this matter is investigated. He has very serious questions to answer. 1343244849
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 03/09/2026This is serious. If Reform blatantly, intentionally and knowingly broke election law, they should be held fully accountable. Liberal Democrats have asked the Police and the Electoral Commission to investigate. 321027287
Reposted by Ed DaveyLiberal Democrats @libdems.org.uk · 03/09/2026Farage has always behaved as though the rules apply to everyone but him. These allegations against Reform look like the latest example. Lib Dem Cabinet Office spokesperson @lisasmartmp.bsky.social has written to the police and the electoral commission asking them to investigate. 17767290
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 03/09/2026This is racism, straight out of the Trump playbook. Reform are trying to turn our great country into a franchise of Trump's America. There are countless British patriots who came here from overseas, many of them refugees we proudly welcomed. That's the kind of country we are. 701702480
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 02/09/2026You can’t fix our country until you fix our broken politics. It was brilliant to meet some democracy campaigners today! 29922
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 02/09/2026Tory and Reform MPs don't like to hear it, but fixing their Brexit mess is the only way to end the cost-of-living crisis. And that means joining the Single Market. 33792210
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 01/09/2026I've written to the Prime Minister ahead of his first statement later today, with a clear message: Our politics is broken and we can’t fix our country until we fix our politics. 29401137
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 22/08/2026I’m deeply saddened by the tragic loss of two police officers and five members of the public in Cleveland this morning. My thoughts are with their families, loved ones and everyone at Cleveland Police. Thank you to the emergency services for their work during this difficult time. 610915
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 20/08/2026The Conservatives and Nigel Farage helped create the small boats crisis with their botched Brexit deal. Now they want you to blame everyone else. Only Lib Dems have a real plan: work with our European neighbours to tackle it. 515742
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 20/08/2026Congratulations to everyone picking up their GCSE results today! A special shout out to the young carers balancing school with caring for loved ones. Juggling that responsibility takes incredible strength, and your dedication and resilience will take you far. 011814
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 19/08/2026The Conservatives' botched Brexit deal, backed by Nigel Farage, caused the small boats crisis. Only we have a plan to fix it through a new pact with our European neighbours. 717051
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 19/08/2026This is shocking. The Conservatives' new energy plan goes way past scrapping net zero – they actually want to put emissions up. After a summer of wildfires, it seems the Conservatives have completely given up on the environment and are just taking orders from Donald Trump. 14400133
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 18/08/2026Disabilities don't start at 9:30 AM, and now disabled bus passes won't either. Huge credit to Lib Dem MP Tom Gordon and campaign groups like Transport for All. Their fight against unfair restrictions has led to nationwide change for fairer, accessible transport! 838282
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 14/08/2026Miles away from Farage’s stunt in Clacton, Liberal Democrats are beating Labour in Devon and Reform in Yorkshire. Stunning victories for hard working liberals - who turned up to their counts! 830851
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 13/08/2026Congratulations to everyone receiving A-Level, T-Level and BTEC results today! You should be so proud. And a special shout out to the young carers balancing your studies with looking after loved ones. You are amazing. 417621
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 07/08/2026Nearly everyone knows someone with special educational needs or a disability. For too long, they've been let down by a broken system. It's time they got the help they need. 215737
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 04/08/2026While wildfires rage, oil bosses are laughing all the way to the bank thanks to Donald Trump’s idiotic Iran war. People across the country are facing sky high energy bills. If Burnham is struggling to find the money to help families with those bills, I’d start here. 21343130
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 02/08/2026We have been saying for many years that the only way to fix care is by all of the main parties agreeing on the same plan. We have a responsibility to work together and a real opportunity to fix it. 1133372
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 02/08/2026Is this the moment we can finally fix social care? For the sake of millions of carers and our loved ones who need care, I will do everything I can to make it happen. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...thetimes.comEd Davey: How to fix social care without raising taxesThe Lib Dem leader, who’s spent years caring for family, says the private sector should not be cut out 1426646
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 30/07/2026This is the very sad reality of a broken system that is letting people down. We must fix this so that it never happens again. www.thetimes.com/uk/healthcar...thetimes.comMore than 30,000 died last year waiting for social care helpThe proportion of frail and elderly adults in England who get support has halved in 20 years and more than half of requests to local authorities are rejected 622465
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 29/07/2026I feel hopeful about the talks today on fixing our broken care system but this is just the beginning. A solution is desperately needed. I will always stand up for family carers through this process. 1647974
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 29/07/2026Caring has been central to my life, and the lives of millions across the country. I'll be meeting the Prime Minister today to discuss how we can finally find a solution to the care crisis. We need to do things differently. I really hope we are on a journey to fix this. 35685124
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 28/07/2026I’m with my family in France and as people know I have a disabled son who needs 24/7 care, so I can’t be back in Westminster tomorrow - but I look forward to meeting Andy Burnham over Zoom. I’m hopeful this call may prove to be the first step towards fixing our broken care service. 1870563

Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 28/07/2026Great to be out on the River Thames in Bisham with local MP Josh Reynolds for a litter pick as part of Paddle UK’s Big Paddle Clean Up! It was fantastic to get on the water, meet local people, and help keep our beautiful rivers clean and healthy for everyone. 110113
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 24/07/2026Donald Trump is doubling down on his reckless trade war, after his last tariff tantrum was ruled illegal. He's a bully and an unreliable ally. We can't have continuity Starmer. Andy Burnham must stand up to Trump. 1524964
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 21/07/2026We need to do politics differently. If Andy Burnham is serious about cross party working, my door is open. 1026251
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 20/07/2026Kevin Keegan brought excitement to millions on the pitch and so much joy to the many he met off it. He will be greatly missed and my thoughts and prayers are with his nearest and dearest. 122422
Ed Davey @eddavey.libdems.org.uk · 20/07/2026Disappointing not to hear anything from the new PM on social care, on Europe, or on protecting our precious natural environment. I hope that will come very soon – Britain can't wait much longer. 3922045
