Everyone knows someone whose life has been turned upside down by cancer. The Conservatives left cancer treatment on its knees and Labour are being far too unambitious.

Trump has invaded a country, is threatening to bomb Iran, and now his gestapo forces are gunning people down. You can't do all that and be celebrated on the global stage. It's time to boycott Trump's World Cup. action.eko.org/a/boycott-tr...

I have just signed the Liberal Democrats' petition calling on the government to rule out any further delays to local elections. Voters must not be denied their right to cast their ballot this May.

Democracy delayed is democracy denied.

End the stitch-up: no more election delays
Democracy delayed is democracy denied. Every voter deserves their voice to be heard on time, not whenever it suits those in power.
