The Tories botched Brexit deal has left us ยฃ90 billion worse per year. The Lib Dems have a plan for a Customs Union with the EU that would bring around ยฃ25 billion to the economy. The Lib Dems will bring a vote on this next week and I hope Labour backbenchers will support us.

I am desperately worried for my extended family in Gaza City. They have no electricity, no water, no food, and now a sniper is inside the Church compound where they are sheltering. My family are not collateral damage. We need an immediate bilateral ceasefire now.

Today I lost the first member of my extended family in Gaza. The Liberal Democrats have been consistently on the side of humanity and peace. We couldn't vote for our full position today. This evening I tried to ask the speaker to bring people together. Sadly I was cut short.

These are only civilians in this church. They are only admitting Christians who are known to the community. They have nothing to do with Hamas. I plea to the Israeli Government to leave them alone. They haven't hurt anybody. I'm not sure they're going to survive the week.

UK recognition of the State of Palestine was a promise made to my great grandfather decades ago. While on its own, recognition wonโt solve anything without further action, it is a down payment on peace. Today we have just a little more hope, and hope is contagious.

The Tories failed the UK with their disastrous Brexit negotiations, but the Lib Dems will make it our priority to rebuild trust with the EU. Weโll start by creating an EU-UK youth mobility scheme for under-35s, meaning new opportunities to work and learn in Europe.

The chronic mismanagement of Thames Water is why I called a debate on its future in Parliament yesterday. Sadly, stories like Len and Jenny's of sewage in peoples homes are all too common. If Thames Water cannot be trusted to do the basics, then what can they be trusted to do?

The Prime Minister's decision to recognise the state of Palestine was long overdue, but it is meaningless without the establishment of an independent Palestinian state. Yesterday I asked the Prime Minister to confirm his commitment to making a two-state solution a reality.

Deaths in the English Channel are a direct result of a lack of safe and legal routes for refugees. We need to create more avenues of safe passage to the UK to those who need it, this will help us to solve the backlogs and stop the trafficking gangs.

Mohammad is a consultant NHS surgeon. His elderly parents are in Jabalia refugee camp, unable to evacuate. Everything there is being shot by drones and there are bodies strewn in the streets. The sick, the elderly, and those caring for them are not legitimate targets of war.

Nada, an Oxford plastic surgeon, told me stories of children in Gaza suffering wounds, which without care will lead to life-changing injuries. I pushed the Government to work to establish a humanitarian corridor from Gaza to the West Bank for those injured to access treatment.

Speaking on Peston, the elephant in the room is the government failing to consider a customs union with the EU. We lost 4% of GDP from the Conservative's botched deal, billions that we could have access to. The world has changed, we should have a different conversation.

I was shocked by the revelations in the ITV News Investigation into the DES Scandal. That is why I have written to Wes Streeting, asking for an update into the Department for Health & Social Care's investigation into the generational impact of DES.

Today I was granted an urgent question to ask Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office about the humanitarian crisis in Northern Gaza. To ask if the government is really doing everything they can to achieve a ceasefire. And whether they were doing all they could to save Palestinians form needless suffering.

I have heard from people in Gaza, and they are starving. There is a genuine fear too that this escalation is about taking the land forever. I urget the gov't to recognise the state of Palestine because at some point it just won't exist anymore. with Andrew Marr on LBC

The Liberal Democrats have long argued for shifting the big levers on the economy to make a difference to people's lives. That's why we are pushing for a Customs Union with the EU. We have to see shifts in the economy so that small business can thrive.

Ofwat is a busted regulator with no teeth whatsoever. Thatโs why the Liberal Democrats will replace it with a Clean Water Authority and spend ยฃ10M to recruit sewage inspectors. This would stop water companies from marking their own homework and mean real consequences for sewage dumping.
