Families are already seeing petrol prices rise, mortgage rates go up and energy deals get more expensive because of a war they did not start or support.
While the Conservatives and Reform cheer Trump on, I asked the PM if he will just stand by and watch energy bills skyrocket.
Last week I asked Keir Starmer for a guarantee that families would not be hit with a £500 rise in energy bills because of Trump’s illegal war.
Still no sign of a clear answer from the PM.
SKY NEWS ARTICLE GRAPHIC. IMAGE: Ed Davey TEXT: Lib Dem leader calls for King's US state visit to be cancelled after Trump's criticism of Starmer
Trump’s illegal war is devastating the Middle East and pushing up energy bills for British families.
This visit should not go ahead.
Uh oh looks like I may have triggered the snowflakes over at GB News ❄️

As UK-EU relations become more structured, the Commons needs a European Scrutiny Committee. The House of Commons needs a scrutiny structure that reflects the reality of the UK-EU relationship which is now taking shape.
"If ministers are serious about building a more constructive and better organised agreement with the European Union, they should also be serious about ensuring that it is properly scrutinised by the elected House." Read more using the link below 🔗

Labour and Tories have dynamited the job market. Greens and Reform will make it even worse
Only Liberals will fix it, here is how (🧵)
Good to see the number of Labour MPs speaking up for this. I hope their colleagues listen to them.

Laura K is already out of date, and again Lib Dems lead the opposition across the "faultline", firmly resisting another trail after Trump = when will the BBC admit that Farage is fake news ?
As the price of natural gas spikes across Europe for the fourth time in the last five years remember those extremely clever people in Reform and the Conservatives who want to abandon renewable energy and rely even more on gas 🤡 🤡

Uncut Trumpism. No election is valid unless they win it. Farage and Reform UK are outright enemies of democracy and the Mail is actively aiding them.
This is very concerning.
Starmer needs to get on the phone to Trump and ask him to set out a plan to protect civilians and support a democratic transition in Iran.
We've seen before that bombs don't bring about democracy and regime change without a plan just leads to more chaos and suffering.
"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

Millions of young people are now facing the consequences of a referendum they were too young to vote in. If we truly care about future generations, we owe it to them to rebuild our ties with Europe and reopen the opportunities that Brexit has taken away.
