@ChrisMayLA6 It's not clever for the Tories, whose former home counties supporters have plumped for the #LibDems. They need new markets, but mean girl Kemi is not winning old or new Tories.

It's especially foolish for #ReformUK. The regions for which Burnham is speaking are currently heartlands of Reform electoral strength. Will Reform's south-eastern leadership surrender that advantage to Burbham?

Curious, would #GreenParty members and voters support a coalition with #LibDems ?

We need another general election and it's my opinion that the next government should be a #LibDems majority, we need electoral reform and that's the only party that can bring it forward.

Maybe a lib dem and green party coalition? I think that would be the most democratic government the UK has had.

@Theriac @PhoenixSerenity @GeraldKutney Winston Churchill was Secretary for War & Air from January 1919-February 1921 & Colonial Secretary from February 1921-October 1922 as a National Liberal under David Lloyd George. It was in the former post that "After British troops in Iraq clashed with Kurdish rebels, Churchill authorised 2 squadrons to the area, proposing that they be equipped with mustard gas to use against the rebels." The irony is the #LibDems are now to the #Left of #Labour!

Was it the Pogroms or the Misogyny that blew it for Reform? Or was it Elon Musk bumbling into the match and splitting the Fash vote?

Anyway, Lib Dems and Greens need not of leant their vote, it will never be repaid by Labour....

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/jun/17/lib-dems-to-urge-labour-to-drop-torpor-and-timidity-on-eu-and-rejoin-single-market. At last! The #LibDems have finally come off the fence, & are now calling for #Britain (NOT the #UK, as #NorthernIreland is already in it, de facto, if not de jure) to re-join the #SingleMarket. That makes 100% #economic #sense, but it entails restoring #free #movement, so the #Tories & #ReformUK will be vehemently opposed, but so, too, will #Labour, @ChrisMayLA6!

@PinkNews @politics-PinkNews It's a shame Charles Davey is a #transphobe, but that is no reflection on his brother, #EdDavey. I'm glad the official #policy of the #LibDems is to oppose the #EHRC #guidelines, & to #support the whole #LGBTIQA #community without #exception. Charles Davey's argument is total nonsense.

Here a postal ballot for the #Makerfield by-election. (From https://x.com/i/status/2064047495236178427)

1/ cheeky #LibDems chose a candidate with surname listed ahead of #CountBinface. So poor Bunface is not top of the list

2/ only 2 of 14 candidates give an address in Makerfield. In ireland, the other 12 would be no-hopers. Irish voters don't tolerate non-resident candidates.

Oioioi, @Mickft. Go easy, Mick.

Nothing I wrote is "untrue", let alone "simply untrue".

I didn't say #LibDem policy had changed. I said they seemed uninterested in STV. I stand by that. Big difference between manifesto mention and campaign headline.

In the 1980s theAlliance / #LibDems campaigned heavily on electoral reform. They had #JohnCleese do a good video on #STV: https://youtu.be/0qWDPauV_p4.

Nothing like that in the 2020s. Little mention since the #FibDem #AV defeat in 2011.

@ChrisMayLA6 #LibDems were in coslition with Scittish Labour 1999–2007, and got #STV for Scittish local elections.

But LibDems were later almost wiped out in Wales. So when #PlaidCyrmu and #WelshLabour agreed to abandon #AMS for the #Senedd, there was no strong LibDem voice for STV. The Senedd is now #dHondt only.

2024 showed how #FPTP is clearly broken in Westminster elections. Labour's ⅔ of seats on ⅓ of votes was so obscene that there should have been huge, destructive riots.

@ChrisMayLA6 #STV was used for the Commons university constituencies, from 1918 to 1950. The last STV election to the Commons was the Combined Scottish Universities by-election in November 1946.

For decades thereafter, the Liberal Party and it's successors the #LibDems championed STV. But their enthusiasm lapsed after the disastrous #AV referendum in 2011. Now in a fragmented landscape, LibDems are slight beneficiaries of #FPTP, and seem uninterested in electoral reform.

The #Senedd 2026 vote breakdown by age is stunning.

75% of the under-30 voters chose #PlaidCymru or the Greens. 75%! Three out of four!

Between them, the #LabourParty, #LibDems and #ConservativeParty got only ~10% of the under-30 votes.

If only under-30s had voted, the Senedd would have had no Labour MS, no Conservative MS, and no LibDem MS. It would have been a wipeout
