Ridiculous to the end. Another slap in the face for the people of Central Suffolk and North Ipswich.

In the end, it's about liberty and equality. Two concepts which, despite what some may say, are very much contingent upon each other. #liberalism
"The only things left standing were a church, a sacred Tree, symbol of the Basque people... A sight that haunted me for weeks was the charred bodies of several women and children huddled together in what had been the cellar of a house..." Guernica, 26 April 1937
425 years ago today, Oliver Cromwell, Lord Protector of the Commonwealth of England, Scotland, and Ireland (1653-1658), was born.
Happy 84th birthday to arguably the finest actor of our age, Al Pacino. #Heat
These are War and Pestilence. Death and Conquest are unavailable after fourteen years of cuts, and have been sub-contracted to SERCO who are sourcing a pair of Shetland Ponies as we speak.
Liberal Party Election Poster, 1910. 114 years later, Labour now rides the Tory bike. There is only one alternative: Liberalism.
Liberal Democrats have been long urging the Government to negotiate a reciprocal youth mobility scheme with Europe. Of course the details would need to be negotiated, but no sensible UK government would reject this idea out of hand.
"I remain just one thing, and one thing only, and that is a clown. It places me on a far higher plane than any politician." Charlie Chaplin
"Our great democracies still tend to think that a stupid man is more likely to be honest than a clever man, and our politicians take advantage of this prejudice by pretending to be even more stupid than nature made them." Bertrand Russell
#OTD 1853: Gladstone presents his first budget as Chancellor of the Exchequer.
“Suspended Tory MPs sir - thousands of em”
David Lloyd George once said: "The true test of a nation's greatness is not the size of its population or the extent of its resources, but the character and wisdom of its leaders." Well, that's a fail. #UK #democracy #GE2024
#OTD 1894: Chancellor of the Exchequer Sir William Harcourt introduces his second Budget, with the most important innovation being graduated death duties.
"Heroism breaks its heart, and idealism its back, on the intransigence of the credulous and the mediocre, manipulated by the cynical and the corrupt." A happy (un)heavenly 75th birthday to the late Christopher Hitchens. The world endures a poorer place.
Since Thatcher, housing policy has served to fuel a market of scarcity. Property values through the roof, mortgages out of reach for many, people pushed into rental, rents put up by landlords. #deathspiral | #HousingCrisis | reform #RightToBuy | build more #socialhousing

#OTD 1908: Four years after crossing the floor from the Conservatives, Winston Churchill becomes President of the Board of Trade under Asquith, his first cabinet post, helping the Liberals pass important industrial reform legislation.

Having partly grown up in Suffolk, I adore its magnificent rolling fields, its overarching skies, its delightful villages…. My wife, from the South African highveld, says it’s too flat, but I deny this. Some parts of it are as much as three metres above sea-level, I tell her.
Sorry Norfolk but… WOW Suffolk!

Enough is enough. The Conservatives' sewage scandal is ruining the country’s rivers and beaches and pushing ecosystems to the brink of collapse. It's time to clean up our waterways, and our Wild West water industry while we're at it.

Our rivers, beaches, lakes and our ecosystems can't take any more of this disgusting sewage dumping. The government must declare a national environmental emergency and treat this disgraceful situation with the urgency it deserves.

Regardless of the allegations, Donaldson was an intransigent zealot who destabilised and paralysed Northern Ireland because he couldn’t have everything his own way. The one saving grace was that he didn’t make it to First or Deputy First Minister
