@laylamoran.bsky.socialTeachers!
Apply to the UK Parliament's three-day Teacher Ambassador Programme by 1st November.
It's a great opportunity to spend time in Westminster and explore new ways of teaching young people about the UK Parliament and democracy.
@laylamoran.bsky.socialIt has never been more important to work closely with our European allies.
At conference, I met with Leena Linnus, the Head of @europarl.europa.eu Liaison Office, and Jukka Salovaara, the new EU Ambassador to the UK @euinuk.bsky.social, to discuss issues where international cooperation is vital.
@laylamoran.bsky.socialOur politics is not scandal-laden, short-termist or populist. I spoke to BBC Radio 4 about how the Liberal Democrat's are determined to tackle the big issues this country faces.
@laylamoran.bsky.socialIt is no surprise to anyone that we want to push this Government harder on Europe. I spoke to Sky News at the Liberal Democrat Party Conference in Brighton about how this Government should rebuild defence and trade ties with Europe.
@laylamoran.bsky.socialIt was a pleasure attending the Brain Cancer Justice drop-in event in Parliament alongside Charlie Maynard MP. I heard about the invaluable work they are doing to advocate for greater attention, research and funding into brain cancer. Thank you to those that shared their moving stories with me.
@laylamoran.bsky.socialThe Botley Road has re-opened, but that is three and a half years of people's lives that you can't ever get back.
@laylamoran.bsky.socialIt is disappointing that the Government have broken their pledge to seek legal advice towards recognising a genocide of Uyghur Muslims in China.
I urge the Government to honour this commitment and waste no time in raising concerns over human rights abuses.
@laylamoran.bsky.socialAfter 41 long months, Botley road is finally open.
@laylamoran.bsky.socialThe evil in this case was quite breathtaking. We need a sea change in NHS culture, especially when we're talking about our most vulnerable children and babies. I spoke to BBC Breakfast about the Lucy Letby Public Inquiry findings. 📺️
@laylamoran.bsky.socialIf summer is the new winter for the NHS what does this mean for staff fatigue - where is the NHS Workforce Plan?
@laylamoran.bsky.socialThe work of the Health and Social Care Select Committee influenced the government's Health Bill. Our amendment on ensuring local authority partner members remain in ICBs has been accepted. I raised the issue of Palantir and the need for a definition of "ready" for when HSSIB merges with the CQC.

@laylamoran.bsky.socialI want palliative care to improve, therefore I will be voting for the Assisted Dying Bill today.
@laylamoran.bsky.socialThe state needs to rewire itself so that it works around people. The answer is more complex than simply cutting the Welfare Bill.
@libdems.org.ukReposted by @laylamoran.bsky.socialThis is the third time Martin Rolfe has caused chaos to UK airports.
The Government has failed to launch an investigation into NATS to prevent further disruption.
@laylamoran.bsky.socialIf you or someone you know needs support right now, please contact Samaritans on 116 123, text Shout on 85258 or NHS services on 111.
@laylamoran.bsky.socialToday is World Suicide Prevention Day. Children's mental health is a Cinderella service and deserves parity of esteem. The Health and Social Care Select Committee has been looking at why child death by suicide rates are increasing.
@laylamoran.bsky.socialI told you all to watch this space.
The campaign for a new Maternity Unit at the John Radcliffe Hospital starts today.
Sign the petition below! We need your help.
@laylamoran.bsky.socialI shed a tear when the government said that the occupation is illegal. I welcome the Foreign Secretary's commitment to banning all illegal settlements. Today I asked him how the government intends to work cross-party, so that we can all play our part to ensure the future of a Palestinian State.
@laylamoran.bsky.socialI visited the John Radcliffe Hospital. They have been doing their best since the recommendations of the Baroness Amos review in June 2026. However, it is clear that there is only so much they can do without a new Maternity Unit. I am taking this to Parliament, watch this space.
