“Scandal and entitlement”
You can say the same about MPs but nobody is talking about abolishing democracy
You are entitled to dislike the Royal Family as individuals or even as a component of our constitution, but denying their value and contribution to our country is not a sensible position
The Royal Family make a huge and unique contribution to the UK in terms of diplomacy, international influence, tourism, trade and social cohesion
To talk about costs without talking about value is missing the point
Most of the Royals work hard and serve our country with great distinction
We need to rejoin the European Union.
Just say it.
Hi Freddie
Our country is in the grip of a catastrophic housing crisis.
Young people and young families in particular are struggling to get on the housing ladder.
Why you do think it is appropriate to shut down planning processes altogether for new housing?
Isn’t this the worst of NIMBYism?
A “progressive” recently shared this with me. I don’t like it
I dislike right wing populism because it “others” immigrants and cultural elites
I also dislike left wing populism, which “others” people due to their economic status
Both are equally nasty perspectives. That is why I am a centrist.
Is anyone aware whether or not Simon Jenkins has apologised for supporting Brexit ?
Northumberland.
My favourite place.
So proud of the people of Newcastle
So proud to be a Geordie
"I don't want a small minority with right wing extremist intentions to hijack our flag. That's not who we are a a British people."
@munirawilson.bsky.social on reclaiming the flag for those who want to reunite and rebuild, not divide and destroy. #BBCQT
It's 10 months since I introduced a Bill into parliament for a youth mobility scheme with EU countries.
Since then we've had warm words but no action. Again we're short of detail.
I hope this isn't another damp squib because our young people deserve better.

With the Lib Dems reportedly considering dropping opposition to ID cards, our most recent tracker poll found that 57% of Britons would support them, including 56% of Lib Dem voters

Good news.
Time for @rory-stewart.bsky.social to eat some humble pie and acknowledge Ed’s strengths and work ethic.
Wanting the UK to succeed is patriotic.
Asking America to sanction us, like Farage did, isn’t.
That’s not love of our country - it’s sabotage.
Love this well done Ed.
Our flag does not belong to one creed or to one race. It belongs to one people, the British people.
We will not let our flag be used to intimidate.
Government needs to get its act together on infrastructure. Too complex. Too slow. Too fragmented.
Huge state failure leading to housing crisis for tens of millions.
Too easy to blame developers.
No it’s not.
Poor people are not poor because rich people are rich.
This kind of far left populist Corbynista nonsense doesn’t help anyone.
In the week since Charlie Kirk’s assassination, Russia, Iran and China have spread thousands of false or incendiary claims about what happened to the conservative activist, in an effort to stoke political divisions or to portray the U.S. as a dysfunctional country.
Elon Musk’s comments are a clear attempt to undermine our democracy.
We must all, regardless of political leaning, stand in joint condemnation of his comments.
No one, no matter how wealthy or powerful, should be allowed to get away with using their platform to incite violence.
"If you hold to those liberal beliefs which actually have made our country great, I think that's true patriotism."
@EdDavey.LibDems.org.uk
imagine getting qt dunked by ed davey. unrecoverable. you’re furious and he is serenely going down a log flume in bognor regis.
Liberal Democrat Leader Ed Davey has called on the Prime Minister to rule out any future contracts the Government could have with Tesla after Elon Musk told protesters to “fight back or die” and that “violence is coming” at the far-right rally over the weekend
The private family life of twice divorced Nigel Farage, who had children with both of his ex wives.... and now lives with his girlfriend.... is none of my business... just as the private family lives of everyone else are none of his.
Receipts. You know what I do with them, don't you?
Reform UK once again demonstrate their commitment to improving the living standards and life chances of working class British people by poaching old Etonian Danny Kruger, also the son of a South African property developer, from the Conservative Party.

“Elon Musk openly called for violence on our streets yesterday. I hope politicians from all parties come together to condemn his deeply dangerous and irresponsible rhetoric. Britain must stand united against this clear attempt to undermine our democracy.” — Ed Davey.
Politicians from all parties must come together to condemn Elon Musk’s dangerous call for violence and make clear it has no place in our country.
A counter showing over 10,000 have backed the Lib Dem petition to balance the BBC. In the graphic is a stack of old TVs displaying Nigel Farage.
More and more people are backing our call to balance the BBC.
Our national broadcaster should be fair and balanced, not a mouthpiece for Nigel Farage and his 4 MPs.
