New Lib Dem Peer Mike Dixon used his maiden speech to make a simple case: the best decisions come from truly understanding people. From Citizens Advice to drug and alcohol services, he has spent a career proving it.

Rhiannon Leaman's maiden speech was personal as well as political. As a parent, she knows first-hand what it means to wait years for a diagnosis. She spoke for every family still fighting a system that was supposed to be on their side.

A £90 billion Brexit black hole. An out-of-date manifesto. A government too timid to act. Chris Fox makes the case in the Lords for bolder leadership on Europe.

Brexit promised to protect our creative industries, then left them out of the trade deal entirely. Tours cancelled. Exports lost. A generation of talent gone. Paul Strasburger sets the record straight.

See Tim's speech from yesterday:

A deeply touching moment in the House of Lords today. Lib Dem peer @lynnefeatherstone.bsky.social spoke movingly today about her nephew, who died aged 35 from hepatitis C, and her sister, who campaigned for justice on the contaminated blood scandal for 40 years and passed away just weeks ago.

Medical misogyny is still the norm. Women aren't listened to. Maternity failures repeat across the country. Perinatal mortality is rising. We want every maternity unit rated good or outstanding with one-to-one midwifery guaranteed. Britain should be the safest place in the world to give birth.

Sarah Teather spent her career fighting for children living in poverty, led a refugee charity, and in March made her maiden speech in the House of Lords "I pledge to use my voice here to create space for all those whose voices continue to be silenced."

Ticket touts are pricing fans out of live events. The government plans to ban it for sporting events but concerts and cultural events get no protection at all. @lordtim.bsky.social explains what Lib Dem peers are demanding. 👇️

The immigration minister couldn't say how tall the London Eye is — yet it's a question migrants must answer to settle in Britain. Don Foster, Lib Dem peer and chair of the Justice and Home Affairs Committee, challenged him on it.

I’m heading out of town for a quick camping weekend away, and so I will be off the grid for all of tomorrow. So I made a memory reel for tomorrow! I know. I’m extra. Here’s tomorrow’s “on this day,” 1-15 years ago! I’m singing Bizet here.

⛔ 🆘 The level of impunity enjoyed by the #Ertzaintza (Basque Police) is such that they continue to harass a wounded supporter of the #GlobalSumudFlotilla Pro-Palestinian in a medical clinic. Despicable‼️‼️

Trump- Iran has “no Anti Aircraft Equipment”… #news #politics #trump #war #iran

Trump: I'm right now at 99% in Israel. I could run for prime minister, so maybe after I do this, I'll go to Israel and run for prime minister. I had a poll this morning, I'm 99%

Thanks for including me, Ballroom Mike! ✨💫💙🇺🇸💫✨

🚨 The government has agreed an #NHS drug price hike with Trump’s administration - and neither the public nor MPs have had a say in it. This deal could force the NHS to pay BILLIONS more for medicines, pushing other services to breaking point. Watch, share, and tag your MP. ⬇️ #PatientsBeforeProfits

A news host was wondering who is placing these bets to make millions off the oil markets anytime Trump makes an announcement about the Iran War. I pointed out that the call is coming from inside the house.

Trump’s Iran war of choice is not worth the cost. Americans are dying and families are struggling, but Trump continues to focus on the wrong priorities. This isn’t America first.
