- Reposted by Dr Manuela Perteghella MPThe United Kingdom is at its best when we’re true to our values: tolerance, decency, respect for individual freedom and the rule of law. We can't let Nigel Farage throw that all away by turning Britain into Trump’s America. Choose a brighter future with the Liberal Democrats.

- Reposted by Dr Manuela Perteghella MPOur model would echo the film and video classification system established in the 1980s, adapting a trusted framework for the digital age. The new ratings would be enforced by Ofcom, which would be handed powers to fast-track fines and business disruption orders on platforms that don’t comply.
- Reposted by Dr Manuela Perteghella MPWe have age ratings for films to protect children from violence and other harmful content. Why not do the same with social media websites? Our policy would keep the internet open and keep children safe from Elon’s Chainsaw Massacre.
- Reposted by Dr Manuela Perteghella MPWatching the Jenrick Press Conference: Really hoping a journalist asks him in the manner of Mrs Merton: "What was it about losing the Tory leadership contest that helped you realise that the Tories had broken Britain?"

- Well well well... That tells us everything we need to know about Reform, which is quickly becoming a retirement home for disgraced former Conservative ministers. If Mr Zahawi decides to stand for elected office here in Stratford-on-Avon, I can only say Bring it on! 💪🔶️

- Reposted by Dr Manuela Perteghella MP🚨BREAKING🚨 MPs have voted to PASS our bill to establish a UK-EU customs union. The Prime Minister must now listen to his own MPs, drop his self-imposed red lines and finally go for proper growth through an ambitious trade deal with the EU.

- Hello 👋 Stratford-on-Avon constituency, my weekly round-up to 16 November (more to come soon).😊
- The UK Covid Inquiry second report concludes that the response to the pandemic was often a case of ‘too little, too late’. We will never forgive the then Conservative government for partying while they left the country vulnerable and grieving.
- Reposted by Dr Manuela Perteghella MPBrexit has cost each and every one of us £3,700 a year. But instead of solving the problem, Labour are using Brexit as an excuse to raise your taxes. My message ahead of the Budget: Stop blaming Brexit and start fixing it!
