    Great day in beautiful Chesham & Amersham. I've known our candidate, Sarah Green, for nearly 20 years. She'll be a fantastic local MP.

    . is the first MP in our parliament from Palestinian descent, I’m proud of the work she is doing. I agree with every word of this piece - and hope the government take note 👇

    "The time is right for the UK to play its strongest hand and recognise the state of Palestine. Above all else, hope is what we need now. New hope. I urge all Palestinians, Israelis and anyone who supports peace to not give up." in

    This is appalling. Antisemitism has no place in our country. And no antisemite can ever claim to further the cause of the Palestinian people.

    Just chaired a parliamentary event with , hearing from parents of disabled children about their experiences during Covid. Many families are isolated, anxious and unable to access support. They urgently need a dedicated recovery plan.

    Massive thanks to for hosting our Parliamentary event on Covid recovery for disabled children & their families; to all the Parliamentarians who attended; & most of all to Dan & Vanessa for sharing their powerful & moving stories

    Boris Johnson must confirm the bereaved families will be fully involved with the Covid inquiry - including in finalising its remit. If he fails, he could create a generational injustice as we saw with Hillsborough, forcing bereaved families to campaign for decades for justice.

    Liberal Democrats welcome this inquiry in spite of it being 13 months after we first called for it.  We must have a full & properly independent inquiry that has the trust of the public especially of those who have lost a loved one to this terrible disease.

    This is welcome news. The PM must meet with the bereaved families immediately so they are at the very heart of this inquiry.

    The PM must keep to his promise, ministers must be held to account and bereaved families must get the justice they deserve.

    BREAKING: the PM has just told me, he will start an independent inquiry into the Government’s handling of Covid, in this parliamentary session - ie in the next 12 months. We’ll hold him to account on behalf of our country’s bereaved families - so they can get answers & justice.

    It's crushingly disappointing that the Government’s plans will fail on every account: ❌Failing small businesses and the self-employed ❌Failing to rise to the climate emergency ❌Ignoring millions of people caring for loved ones

    The Government have promised time and time again that they'll fix the problem with social care, but they've failed to deliver. With social care services in crisis, it is high time the Government acted. ⬇️

    Boris Johnson must listen to carers like Elaine. Let’s work cross-party to agree a real long-term solution to guarantee everyone the high-quality social care they need.
