@HighlandLawyer Sadly, that is standard #LibDems campaign tactics.

A decade ago, I spent a lot of time in an southern Egnland area with a lot of LibDems. Their leaflets, posters and roadside advert boards were all "LibDems Winning Here". Not a squeak about ehat anyone might want LibDems

@strypey I wish there was a political party in this country that I could be sure shared my civil libertarian ideology. Maybe the #LibDems. One of their Lords members insisted that the OSA is "in line with Liberal principles" to me though, so i don't have high hopes.

@Gillinger Food for thought, #LibDems
@racingdaily @therightarticle
On that polling, a #Green alliance with the #LibDems would give them a majority in Westminster. #Labour and #Tories nowhere
The #LibDems leader told party members, "As the UK now prepares to replace Trident in the 2040s, we should make the decision now to spend the billions required over the next two decades here in the UK, not in the US."

only in Eastern Europe progressive left party calls for increase in defence production & capabilities, and criticises far-right president for dragging with rearmament ๐Ÿ’ช

something for Western "activist" left to learn, and British too - which they won't, of course, seeing the reaction on Ed Davey's suggestion that UK should develop it own nuclear arsenal, and them advocating for self-sabotaging unilateral disarmament instead.

UK #LibDems leader #EdDavey was stuck. A man with no vision, and no reason to watch him except when he wears his #wetsuit.

So Ed has launched his new #BigIdea. Build British nuclear missiles, instead of renting #ICBMs from the #USA.

That's Ed's idea. Don't build houses or fund the NHS. Don't abolish student loans or retrofit cold buildings or expand the rail network. Spend the money on missiles!

Back to the wetsuit, Ed.

UK must build own nuclear missiles to end US reliance, says Ed Davey

Sir Ed Davey is calling on the government to start work on a "fully independent British nuclear deterrent".

BBC News
The unreliability, incompetence, hubris, narcissism & total lack of empathy from #Trump throws up many questions. One is how much the UK nuclear deterrent depends on a US led by a charlatan? At present the UK builds its warheads and has operational control, but the US supplies the Trident missiles. #LibDems propose the UK build its own delivery systems to avoid Trump or any future Trump look alike whose policy decisions depend more on whether his breakfast egg is hard boiled enough. There is much sense in this proposal both from an economic and political viewpoint. #RejoinEU #ClimateCrisis #StandwithUkraine

The Lib Demโ€™s have an emergency motion opposing a blanket ban on U16s. Has some good points about freedom of expression for young people. Still faces issues around how you rate platforms, small sites and the issue around age gates + personal data. Under an age system access to anything other than a U rating requires proof of age. #LibDems #privacy #onlinesafety https://www.libdems.org.uk/conference/papers/spring-2026/extra
