After months of delay, the Government's online safety plans don't go far enough.
Children deserve better than this rushed hodgepodge of social media restrictions, which don't keep them safe, nor hold tech companies feet to the fire.

Thanks @jilltreanor. Per Thames Water's own independent expert advisor in last year's restructuring plan, a SAR would cost £3.3bn-£4.1bn, but the government would recoup all funds injected when TW exits SAR. @LibDems have been clear TW needs to be put into SAR and come out as a mutual owned and run for its customers. @AndyBurnhamGM do you agree?

"Without the help of Combat Stress, I would not be here today."
Kevin's words.
Not ours.
Every donation helps veterans fighting battles most people never see.
Please watch and share his story.

Al Carns has now confirmed what the @LibDems have said from the outset.
Whilst the Tories’ Legacy Act unforgivably equated our brave veterans with terrorists, Labour’s Troubles Bill is equally flawed in not providing our veterans with sufficient safeguards & protections.

We owe those who serve the UK the kit to do the job and the loyalty to stand by them when it's done. We are failing on both.
I’ve spent my whole time in government making that case. Number 10 will not listen, so I am resigning as Minister for the Armed Forces.

The government needs to have the guts to put Thames Water into special administration now. Only then will money from our bills be available for cleaning up our rivers and beaches.

"What's very clear is that we've got a serious problem"
Thank you to @cammaynard MP for raising the challenges that pubs are facing during Thursday's Westminster Hall debate.
Our research found that the UK lost two pubs a day in the first three months of 2026, that's the equivalent of 2,400 jobs gone.
We're continuing to work with the Government and MPs to bring these issues to the forefront and build a landscape that works for our beloved locals.
Cheers 🍻

Anyone who travels regularly from #Hanborough Station knows how often the station car park is completely full. This results in people missing trains they have booked and paid for because they have nowhere to leave the car they have driven to the station in.
I was really pleased to hear from @GWRHelp over Christmas that they’ll be providing approximately 30 new parking spaces near to the station. This is excellent news and will help ease some of the pressure, but longer term we all know that the car park will need to be expanded.

Well done to Councillor Lidia Arciszewska and the rest of the team who have been working hard to find a solution to this issue. And great news regarding the café too!
My colleague @CalumMillerLD and I will be meeting with #GWR and local councillors this month to get the ball rolling on finding a sustainable long-term solution to this problem – One that I will update on where possible.

Travelling this Christmas Eve and wishing it was easier to park at Hanborough station?
Along with fellow Lib Dem MP Callum Miller, I've written a letter about the parking mess at Hanborough rail station, asking for change ⤵️

I’m completely delighted to see that all the endless campaigning and protests have produced a result.
Well done everyone who fought so hard on this, and well done to Alistair Carmichael and Tim Farron for doing such a great job leading the charge!

Did you know that only 17% of Thames Valley shoplifting offences result in someone being charged? The reality is that this only the tip of the iceberg, as so many still don't go reported. Much more enforcement, support for shop staff and CCTV needed!

Delighted to make an early-morning visit to Royal Mail in #Carterton on Friday.
I was introduced me to the team and showed around their fantastic operation at one of the busiest times of the year.
Lots of engaging conversations and I was also pleased to draw the staff raffle winning ticket!
I’m very grateful to everyone at Royal Mail across my constituency for all their hard work and dedication, especially at Christmas time. Thank you for everything you do.🎄📮

A useful visit to Bumbles News and Post Office in Burford this morning with Postmistress Sally.
If the postal services that she and other post offices around the constituency provide are not used they will disappear from our High Streets.
Please come and use them! We discussed this here below.👇

Disgusting, but probably not surprising from a government that already cancelled some elections last year.

We have district elections set for May, and now the government is considering cancelling them - supposedly up to the local authorities, but we'll see.
Undemocratic, suspicious, cowardly and self-serving. We’re a democracy, let the elections go ahead!
