Very moving to listen to the Last Post, followed by the bells of Big Ben, before taking part in the two minute silence to mark the 11th of the 11th of the 11th.
We will remember them.

🧵 This is another hammer blow to families already struggling with living costs.
The unfair mortgage hit awaiting millions has Trump’s name all over it. His reckless Iran war, backed by the Tories and Reform UK, sent energy prices soaring. Now it's pushing up mortgage bills.
Instead of the timid Budget we saw last week, the Government must adopt our plans for an ambitious growth and defence partnership with Europe so we can cut people bills and taxes.

The American people are clearly sick of Trump's scandals. I’ve pressed the UK government to assist any and all inquiries the new Democratic Congress may launch.
Terrible news for SEND families. We @LibDems have offered to work with the government to get SEND reform right - this can-kicking can’t go on.
Should the UK apologise for slavery and pay reparations to Commonwealth countries? This is what I said to Nick Robinson two years ago.
What we needed from the Chancellor was a long-term plan to grow the economy, through a better deal with Europe, to cut people's taxes and bills.
Instead, we got a steady-as-she-goes Budget that just won't cut it.

Nigel Farage just couldn’t be arsed. My verdict on the latest attention seeking stunt from Britain’s tin-pot Trump

This country needed the Chancellor to be bold today.
Bold on Europe. Bold on growth.
Unfortunately this budget does not cut it.
@LibDemDaisy
I agree: this is unacceptable. We @LibDems continue to call for an Essential Energy Guarantee that gives everyone an avg £100 rising to £180 for the disabled and those on lowest incomes.
Targeted energy support is good for those in energy poverty and good for the tax payer.
🧵 Today, our country needed a Budget that would strike a better deal with Europe to grow our economy, cut people's bills and put our country on a path to lower taxes.
Instead, we got a steady-as-she-goes Budget that just won't cut it. This isn't the change Labour promised.
Whilst some temporary measures to support households and small businesses are welcome, the Chancellor could have put £350 back in the pockets of households through our @LibDems plans to cut the cost of essential energy, public transport, fuel duty and VAT on hospitality.
We @LibDems have led calls for an emergency VAT cut to 15% for #hospitality - if done properly, this would be exceptionally good news that could help #SaveOurHighStreets
