@SpillerOfTea This whole vile argument is a ridiculous distraction from the real perpetrators of violence against women, because cis men certainly don't need to "pretend to be women" in order to abuse, rape and murder (trans & cis) women. #ciswiththet

Utter nonsense from the usually excellent @stellacreasy Votes for 16 and 17 year olds has been Lib Dem policy for years. Labour have never been interested before, until now when they are scrabbling for excuses to avoid a GE. Or a PV, for that matter.

Deeply unimpressed that our candidate approval and selection process has yet again failed to weed out a PPC with views so utterly at odds with LD values. Let's be clear though - @UKLabour members are not in a position to gloat at all. Glass houses and all that.

Absolutely astonishing that the @LibDems have selected @DavidCampanale , an ex-prominent member of the Christian Peopleโ€™s Alliance as a candidate. The CPA is anti-abortion, racist, homophobic and misogynistic. Heโ€™s now running in Sutton & Cheam, a Lib Dem target seat. Thread ๐Ÿ‘‡

The @LibDems have long been the strongest supporters of a #PeoplesVote . I am the strongest Remain candidate in #penistoneandstocksbridge , and that's why @unitetoremain have endorsed my campaign. @peoplesvote_uk - we strongly urge you to do the same in your recommendations.

I got this members' email and I've been knocking on doors in Mid Beds this week. 'Traditional values' means Conservative voters who have always voted Conservative and wouldn't vote Labour if they were the only party on the ballot paper. That's it.

Lib Dems use innuendo to suggest our candidate doesnโ€™t match the โ€˜traditional valuesโ€™ of Mid Bedfordshire. He was raised here. He went to school here. He lives here. Iโ€™m so proud of @alistrathern . He doesnโ€™t just understand the values Mid Beds, he embodies them.
