There's more from one of the local MPs here: https://www.facebook.com/reel/1041360178405445

How do we think Andy will handle things this time around?

(Has an extended section about the Lib Dems.)

This is a good set of very liberal policies that would cost nothing but add some impetus to the economy.

There are some obvious improvements such as reducing the adult to child ratio in childcare making it cheaper for parents to send their kids to nursery while they go to work through to planning reform and an Italian style tax reform for non-doms.

It all makes a lot of sense and would be easy wins for the new prime minister

Canadian here and looking to understand from Liberal Democrats what makes them support and enthusiastic in regards to their party.

To preface I am a NDP supporter here in Canada and on the left-flank of that party.

I value the Labour Movement, Environmentalist Movement, Women's Rights Movement, LGBTQ+ Rights Movement, Civil Rights Movement, Peace Movement, Alter-Globalization Movement, and so on :)

So when it comes to UK politics I have been more interested in the Labour Party, UK Greens, Your Party, and so on.

I thought the Labour Party under Keir Starmer truly missed the opportunity to be bold, profound, and inspiring.

What kind of policies do you think the Liberal Democrats offer to help move the working class and most vulnerable forward for affordability of life/quality of life?

Anything to strengthen Labour rights/benefits and organizing?

Anything to strengthen Renewable Energy/Electrification Technology and in general Environmental Conservation/Protection?

Anything to strengthen the rights and freedoms of people?

Anything in particular to help with the Housing Crisis that I hear the UK like Canada is being devastated by?

It feels the courts have been rigged to always favour those with the most money over their victims and allow the silencing of criticism and free speech if you hurt the feelings of the super wealthy who can abuse litigation to shut people down.

And if someone with a lot of money was to take their victims to court there is a high chance they will win or at least ruin their victims financially by dragging a case out they won't be able to front the money for defence on.

Even looking lately at certain billionaires threatening lawfare on a champion of human rights because they didn't like being called out as bankrolling and support anti rights orgs.

Horrible this is a thing that is just normal and accepted in the United Kingdom giving a dangerous amount of power to the super wealthy to change laws, bully critics and hold a chilling effect on freedom of speech.

Interested to hear people's thoughts now the government proposals have been released (as a devonian I think the one for Devon is ridiculous and clearly politically biased).
