That's great. But a fringe event. The Lib Dems had a debate in the main auditorium supporting trans rights at pur conference, passed overwhelmingly.

I predict renaming AI as Super Intelligence will have the same impact as renaming the Gulf of Mexico and Lake Ontario.

It doesn't sit right that over 100 people were arrested for a peaceful protest outside the Labour conference yesterday, but zero arrests were made of black-clad people in balaclavas marching through Dover

How can we restore sense to our politics while all the media care about is clicks and views? Back in 1931 things were bad enough for the PM to attack the press barons "power without responsibility - the prerogative of the harlot through the ages"; Baldwin had no idea how bad things could get

fascinated that Labour women conform so strongly that so many of them feel they have to wear red jackets. Lib Dem women on panels sometimes do have clothes in party colours but more often just wear whatever they want

why is no-one talking about the possibility of criminal fraud in relation to Man City? Were their filed accounts looked at as part of the investigation? What about the accounts of their sponsors? Their tax liabilities?

I guess Reform must be thinking if we scrap the state pension, there will be a lot fewer old people and they will have solved the social care crisis?

The Tories are proposing to stop people on benefits gambling or buying booze or cigarettes. Never mind the rights and wrongs of it, imagine the amount of surveillance of personal data, business and banking that would be required to do it. Or are they suggesting a voucher system like SNAP in the US?

No one should be secretly filmed and sexualised without their consent. But smart glasses are making it easier to do just that. Lib Dems are calling for regulation that keeps up with technology and protects people’s rights @maxwilkinson.bsky.social

I am so glad to have seen this new Government recognise the State of Palestine and take action to support Palestine. Now it's time for them to reconsider the proscription of the group associated with the very same words.

Sir Ed Davey has accused the Conservatives & Reform UK of planning to turn Britain into a “Trump satellite state”, as he vows to block Farage’s path to No 10. The Lib Dem leader declared his party’s “orange wall” will stop Reform UK’s rise to power and “setting communities against each other”.

Anyone with half a brain can see that threatening to shut down the RNLI because it saves migrants is nonsense. The first holidaymaker drifting on a lilo who didn't get rescued would be the end of that

Fed up with people claiming they are apolitical. Why don't they say what they mean? Which is either "I don't want the inconvenient consequences of picking a side" or "I can't be arsed even to think about trying to play my part in society"

be fair. Reform ARE showing us how they would govern. Across the country. Chaos, infighting, allegations of violence and abuse, ignorance, stupidity, callousness and failure to recognise reality. Just what you want in a government.

I have received an email which looks genuine supposedly from the Labour party asking me to complete the application to join the party that I have started. As a paid-up member of the Lib Dems and a Lib Dem councillor I certainly did not apply to join the Labour party. What is this nonsense #Labour

Thought: the men engaged in intimidation and violence over migrants are men who in the 1980s would be engaged in intimidation and violence over football. There are some men who just like violence. Hence the cross-over with domestic abuse convictions. Migrants are just the latest excuse.

Either Trump knew he was lying when he made his claims about 9/11 or he thinks he was telling the truth. No other possibilities. Either makes him unfit for office. He is getting more outrageous day by day. But no-one does anything. It is terrifying to think they let him have the nuclear codes.

To paraphrase the liberal philosopher John Rawls, in order for a liberal society to continue to exist, it should only tolerate the intolerant to the extent that the intolerant are prepared to tolerate it. Feels to me like that is something that needs re-stating just at the moment.

I think the most likely explanation for why gangs of thugs are left alone is that the police are afraid of the violence tackling them would cause. Do they not realise that they will only be emboldened and then the inevitable violence will be worse?

Andy Burnham has been urged to take the UK into the EU’s Migration and Asylum Pact to help tackle small boat arrivals. The move would allow the UK to legally return migrants to the first EU country they entered and grant Britain access to the bloc’s biometric database, the Liberal Democrats say.
