Three million households are in debt on their energy bills. I’ve challenged the Prime Minister to be more ambitious on cutting energy bills by adopting our @libdems.org.uk proposal for making essential energy cheaper.
Our £14 billion emergency package, funded by taxes on unearned profits of big banks and energy operator monopolies, would cut energy, transport, and hospitality costs, putting money back in people's pockets to help with living costs and little extras. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/ck...
🧵 Our @libdems.org.uk plans would put £350 back in your pocket. The government should deliver a breathing space Budget next week, to slash your energy bills, petrol and public transport prices, and costs for struggling high street hospitality businesses over the next year and a half.
The result? We would tackle the cost-of-living crisis, save the average household £350, give our struggling high streets a lifeline and give everyone the breathing space they need. Read more: www.libdems.org.uk/press/releas... Watch my speech: www.youtube.com/live/p_7oRJq...

The Chancellor must be bold at the Budget and adopt our @libdems.org.uk plan to Get Britain Growing Again. This means pulling the biggest growth lever available, a new growth and defence partnership with Europe, and tearing down the barriers holding British business back.
If we can grow the size of the pie, then we can end the cost of living crisis. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Reform UK councillors have been caught red-handed making racist, violent and deeply nasty comments about people of colour, women and even the King. Here’s how I responded to the @itvnews.bsky.social undercover investigation.
We Lib Dems are the last line of defence against a Reform UK government, and Ed is determined to lead a strong and united party into the next GE whenever it comes. The vast majority of our MPs support Ed, want him to lead the party into the next GE and are furious at this distraction.

Making it easier to compare pump prices is good for motorists and competition. But as diesel prices hit £2/litre there’s a strong case for an emergency 10p fuel duty cut now. Our plan would save you £6.60 every time you fill up your car and slash public transport costs too.
🧵 The Conservatives' rejection of closer ties with Europe has cemented their position as a pointless anti-growth anti-business party. Our @libdems.org.uk plan to Get Britain Growing Again will turbo-charge our economy, starting with a new Growth and Defence Partnership with Europe.
No one can take anything the Conservatives say on the economy seriously given their litany of fantasy-land financial pledges. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
By contrast, our @libdems.org.uk plan will tear down barriers to investment, skills and infrastructure without setting fire to environmental or consumer protections. Respond to our plan here: www.libdems.org.uk/conference/p...

We @libdems.org.uk will say what no other party dares to say: Britain belongs at the heart of Europe, and we will put her there. We have a plan to get Britain growing again, starting with tearing down barriers with Europe.

We liberals are in the fight of our lives against populism. And we are determined to win.

Check out our fantastic new policy! 🔶
Liberal Democrats took more than 3 million people out of paying income tax with the personal allowance. So we will raise the tax-free personal allowance to £15,000. Taking 2 million more people out of paying tax altogether, and giving most taxpayers a £680 tax cut.

The cost of living is hitting people hard. For years, millions of people put up with Conservative incompetence because they hoped their tax bill might go down. Now, people have been left high and dry by a Labour government continuing the same tax-and-spend doom loop. @eddavey.libdems.org.uk

Britain has sleepwalked into a “computer says no” economy, where businesses face barriers instead of backing. It’s time to get Britain growing again and give people the freedom to succeed. @LibDemDaisy.bsky.social

Looking forward to unveiling my plan to Get Britain Growing Again today

Farage 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.
Undercover footage verified by Channel 4 News reveals a secret plot by senior Reform UK figures to break the law on party donations. A leading legal expert is now calling for a criminal investigation. 🔗 Read the exclusive story on Substack:
