1/ The family of Lily, who was sexually abused and raped by her father from the age of 4, were quoted over £6,500 for the transcript of his trial.

No victim should have to pay thousands for a court transcript, and ministers must urgently right this wrong.

The Conservatives can't win in London. But Sadiq Khan doesn't deserve to win.

After eight years with Sadiq Khan in charge, the police are catching rapists half as often as they did.

As Liberal Democrat Mayor my top priority would be fixing the Met.

A promise made. A promise broken.

It's clear to see: the Conservatives are bad for our nation's health.

We utterly condemn Iran’s attack on Israel.

This is a dangerous escalation in a conflict that has already caused far too much death and suffering.

This week I visited Tunbridge Wells.

Thanks to the local Lib Dem team who pushed through the gridlock, this wasted brownfield site, ignored since 1999, is set to become a thriving retirement community right in the heart of this beautiful town.

The Liberal Democrats continue to call for an immediate bilateral ceasefire. We also call on the UK Government to:

🛑 stop arms sales to Israel
✍️ release all legal advice
⚖️ lobby the ICC to issue arrest warrants for Hamas terrorists.

Here’s what I had to say about it on @BBC5Live 👇

The Conservatives vowed that they would not let Hammersmith Bridge remain closed. Yet half a decade later, they've clearly lost interest.

After years of broken promises, people across London are in no doubt: With this government in power, the bridge may never be fully repaired.

A promise made. A promise broken.

It's clear to see: the Conservatives are bad for our nation's health.

Liberal Democrats continue to call for an immediate bilateral ceasefire between Israel & Hamas. We are also calling on UK Govt to:

🛑 stop arms sales to Israel
✍️ release all legal advice
⚖️ lobby ICC to issue arrest warrants for Hamas terrorists.

Here’s what I said on BBC Radio 5 Live 👇

High streets are the life and soul of our communities, but for too long they have been ignored by the Conservatives.

Our tax reforms will slash the burden on struggling high street shop owners, and instead ensure landowners pay their fair share.

Eid Mubarak to all celebrating in the UK and worldwide. Wishing you a blessed, safe, and happy Eid.

Parents of children with special educational needs across the UK face a postcode lottery of woefully underfunded support under the Conservatives, with many unable to access the support they deserve.

No child should have to wait so long or fight so hard to have their needs met.

🚜 New in today's Daily Express: Farmers face a catastrophe due to unprecedented wet weather “threatening their very existence”, experts have warned.

Schools should be expected to spend less from their own budgets on meeting the needs of pupils with high needs, say Liberal Democrats as the party calls for the creation of a national SEND agency
tes.com/magazine/news/…

Under the Conservatives, our hospitals are falling apart at the seams, with foul pests allowed to roam freely. This is a national scandal. 

It’s time to act now by bringing forward emergency funds for crumbling and unhygienic hospitals.

In spite of dedicated teachers and teaching assistants, SEND provision in Devon is worse than patchy. I have seen tuition delivered in repurposed cupboards. Liberal Democrats want to end this injustice - starting with a new national body for SEND. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…

Hostages in captivity for six mths, 30,000+ killed in Gaza, others facing starvation.

Liberal Democrats are calling on UK govt to suspend arms sales to Israel and publish any & all legal advice it has received on whether Israel has breached international law

My comments to LBC News👇

No child, or their family, should have to wait so long or fight so hard to have their needs met.

The Conservative Government has woefully underfunded both schools and local authorities, meaning that many parents simply can’t get their children the support they deserve.
