Big announcements on defence spending mean nothing if the money doesn't move. Our peer, Chris Fox warns British businesses are going to go bust waiting, and our allies in Estonia are publicly saying the UK is too slow.

See Tim's speech from yesterday:

"We must regulate the product, not the child." Our peer Tim Clement-Jones made the case for banning addictive design features, protecting children from a cliff-edge at 16, and giving families real legal recourse in today's debate on the #ChildrensBill.

Jeremy Purvis, Lib Dem Leader in the Lords, responds to the King's Speech: "The government's ambitions are not strong enough. Their work is not fast enough." Plus the constitutional quirk most people miss at the State Opening 👇

"This Government clearly want more power to render people destitute." Sarah Teather, drawing on nine years working with destitute asylum seekers, delivers a devastating verdict on Labour's asylum plans.

Rural England is the largest part of the country and the most ignored. Rural communities deserve the same opportunities as everyone else, written into law, not tucked away in optional guidance.

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.

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.

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.

Labour can't even agree with itself on Europe. One of their own ministers just admitted that EU membership inevitable while the government fights it at every turn. The Liberal Democrats have been saying it for years. It's time to act.

alright - we've had 2.5 days to recover, so... we just blitzed & survived 2,000 miles over a planned 4 days (that became 5 days) & escaped the florida panhandle for the first time in 17 years a few #ACLobservations (use that hashtag to mute this thread; this won't be a travelog - we promise 🤚)

It’s a pity “Grampa’s Treadmill” isn’t an Olympic sport, because my kid would be number one with a butt-flip. (Obviously this presumes some kind of “Toddler Olympics,” which I think we can all agree is coming to America within a decade, whether or not we beat back fascism.)
