I've had a great few days in Brighton for Lib Dem Conference, and as always I've had a busy schedule.

There's been a lot of networking and late nights, but I've also been speaking on motions, fringes and roundtables.

Bring on York!

Lib Dem leader Ed Davey has called for the social care system to do more to “empower” disabled people, but without stating what policies his party would introduce to achieve this if it won power at the next general election.

I probably won’t see a copy in #Brexit Exile. Someone will be able to help me I hope.
Will #LibDems be helping us #RejoinEU?
I ask for 69.5 million UK residents. 🇬🇧🇪🇺🍷

🙏 The 𝑙𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑠𝑡 attempt by the #LibDems to restore some relevance to their existence, has seen them promise - 𝑖𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑦 𝑤𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑖𝑛 𝐺𝑜𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑛𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 - to raise the annual tax-free personal allowance to £𝟭𝟱,𝟬𝟬𝟬❗️

In December 2016 MPs voted 135 to 2 to ratify the convention on violence against women. Sarah Olney had been an MP for fifteen days, and she voted for it. She scores plus 1.58, 34th of 1,609.

"More than twelve hundred recorded votes, and the pattern does not wobble."

It's time we hold water companies to account and move to a model of public ownership.
A model of mutual ownership would mean water companies are owned by their customers, investing in infrastructure rather than shareholder profit.

A further intervention I made in the fracking debate, asking about a National Screening of the People's Emergency Briefing.

This last week I sat in a debate about banning fracking. Whilst I didn't get to make a speech, I did make some interventions, 2 of which are here.
Always good to make the facts clear and not rely on "false news".

Liberal Democrats are outstanding for local activism. There's nobody better as local councillors and constituency MP's than #libdems.

But beyond that there's a real lack of vision and big picture thinking.

Late night scribbling action. #ai #LibDems #EdDavey

"Noisy, dangerous and anti-social driving is a huge issue right across Cambridge. It’s disturbing the peace in our communities and putting our loved ones in danger, and it’s about time we did something about it." www.cambridgelibdems.org.uk/noisecameras... by @cambridgelds.bsky.social #LibDems

Same PCC, different issue: "Donna Jones [PCC Hampshire & Isle of Wight], is campaigning for a legally enforceable roadside decibel limit, without which she said makes it difficult for police forces to combat the problem." www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Great to have the chance to speak up for Trans+ rights at #LDConf.
