How did the PM end up appointing Mandelson? Vetting officer → FCDO official → Olly Robbins → Prime Minister. Not one of them had seen the paperwork. Our peer @markpackuk.bsky.social sets out the "daisy chain" that should never have happened.

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.

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 👇

📢 "You can't be at the heart of something from the outside, lead it with red lines, or get the advantages when you're not in it. EU membership remains the goal." Responding to the King's Speech, Lords leader Jeremy Purvis presses the case for closer EU ties.

Even Labour ministers now admit the UK should rejoin the EU. The Liberal Democrats have said it for years. The question is no longer if, it's when the government stops dragging its feet.

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. 👇️

CJ McCollum on Jonathan Kuminga: “He has championship DNA coming from the Warriors. The athleticism is off the charts. He’s got a mid-range. He knows how to post up, screen, and defensively, he can guard 1-5. He was in a not so great situation and now he's found a happy home.”
