Even after concessions, the PIP plans remain deeply flawed and risk real harm to disabled people, carers and families. There’s no credible plan to support people into work. The Liberal Democrats will vote against this bill - and keep fighting for a fairer, more compassionate system.

“People used to say that the US was the world’s policeman. Some people will be wondering today whether Donald Trump is now behaving like the world’s hit man.” My comments on LBC this morning, urging the Government not to let the UK get drawn into this illegal, unilateral war.

Healthwatch does vital work in Oxfordshire, giving patients a voice and holding NHS services to account. I pressed the Health Secretary to guarantee that local independence will not be weakened as the Government brings patient scrutiny closer to Ministers.

Victims of domestic abuse deserve real protection, not promises. The Government must ensure it properly funds probation services and electronic tagging to keep survivors safe after perpetrators are released.

The decision to end the Listed Places of Worship Grant Scheme has created real uncertainty for churches and faith buildings, many of which rely on local donations for essential repairs. Ministers must now make clear how they will be supported if this VAT relief ends.

In addition to their illness, people with ME/ Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Long Covid face additional uncertainty and stress caused by their variable symptoms. I asked the Secretary of State to make sure the welfare reforms treat people with fluctuating conditions fairly.

After repeated Lib Dem calls, Ofwat is finally being scrapped. But ministers must go further. I challenged the Environment Secretary on sewage monitoring and backed the Evenlode Partnership’s citizen science.

Waste crime is out of control and the Environment Agency is under-resourced. I welcomed confirmation in Parliament that organised illegal dumping will fall under the new National Police Service. This is serious crime and it must be treated that way.

Southill Solar gets it right: work with locals, deliver local benefit. Botley West is vast, with weak engagement and thin benefit. The Planning Inspectorate called missing info “very disappointing”. With the Secretary of State now deciding, these concerns must be weighed.

Businesses in Bicester want to install solar panels on their rooftops - but they are blocked by local electricity networks. I’ll meet with the Energy Minister to push for change, building on the Sunshine Bill. Rooftop solar should be standard on new commercial buildings, not an exception.

There may be a spot #SquirrelTax audit later. But there’s always forgiveness as soon as you’ve paid your outstanding balance. 🐿️

🎸🎸Lollar Pickups & Guitar Repairs helped put Tacoma on the map. They are actually manufacturing and building something special right here in America, but Trump’s tariffs are hurting them and driving up costs. Congress must vote to END these tariffs.

The difference between fascists and liberals is that fascist tell the truth, and do not allow liberalism to blind you when they do: he is telling you that he will protect terrorists. He is telling you that the states job is not to punish them and he’s telling you that his job was to k*ll her.
