I'm so happy to back Josh for Party President, we need to build on all the hard work already done, and turbo charge our party towards 100+ seats.
A reminder that the Lib Dems have continuously campaigned for:

Lib Dem Leader Meets BBC Boss To Complain About Level Of Reform Coverage.

Voters need to know what the Lib Dems stand for: what three key things would be different under a Lib Dem government. Today, no-one really does.
The entire board of Liberal Reform writes for Lib Dem Voice - and I agree with it.
Are we underestimating the Lib Dems? Not only are they popular they have popular policies too...votes are seeing them as an alternative to the major parties. They are likely to push further on the Environment, stealing climate conscious voters from other parties.

Mockup packet of sticking plasters titled 'LabourNHSPlan" with the touted feature 'excludes a plan for social care' The graphic is titled 'the most expensive sticking plaster in history.'
Without fixing social care, this NHS plan could be the most expensive sticking plaster in history.
It appears Labour are borrowing from the Conservative playbook - ignoring the social care crisis because itโs just too hard.

Piece by me on why the sudden departure of Reform chair Zia Yusuf is both symbolically important and could hamper Nigel Farageโs big project of Lib Dem-ising his partyโs election machine.

"My fear is that Starmer stops there."
Lib Dem leader Ed Davey welcomes the EU reset deal but stops short of backing a return to free movement.

Liberal Democrats won second in local elections
(2nd-largest number of councillors elected, 2nd-largest gains, 2nd-largest vote share, 2nd-largest number and one of *only* two parties with councils in outright control)
โฆOpinion polls are catching up with reality, as Lib Dems overtake failed Tories.
The most interesting thing about this advert is that Labour now feel the need to acknowledge Davey as a serious competitor.
It suggests they believe the recent Lib Dem polling boost is real.
Graphic showing three people walking away with a trans pride flag draped across their shoulders. Text about reads "International Transgender Day of Visibility". Liberal Democrats logo
On #TransDayOfVisibility we celebrate trans people and stand with the trans community against hatred and discrimination.
To all our trans, non-binary and gender non-conforming members, supporters, friends and followers: We respect you, we value you - today and every day.
Lib Dems take aim at Tory place as โparty of Middle Englandโ in local elections
Still tone deaf then!
The UK must talk tough and not cower in the corner hoping that Donald Trump isn't mean to us. That starts by preparing for retaliatory tariffs and, in trade talks especially on services having other options on the table to show we're prepared to walk away.

Build HS2 to Manchester and HS3 to Leeds and Newcastle, then.
Tinkering around the edges won't solve the fact that it took me 2.5hrs to get to Harrogate last Friday from Manchester compared to colleagues in London who took 3hrs.
Typical crumbs for the North, patronising! @politlcsuk.bsky.social
Last night, I was proud to tell my story during a council debate on Violece Against Women & Girls.
Domestic violence is a plague that affects long after the initial violence.
I'm especially proud of @joshbabarinde.bsky.social work in Parliament to make domestic violence a criminal offence.
Why would you cut a popular, well running service?
The price of Red/Blue failure for our health services is becoming a reality.

Trafford Health tonight was grim.
Cuts are on the way to our health & well-being services.
Claiming the ICB cuts will be admin only will have implications for services that won't be able to function without the support they get currently.
