The Southwark Liberal Democrats have called for an investigation into the appointment of a prominent figure in the local Labour Party to chair the newly formed Land Commission.
Helen Morgan has hit out at Government incompetence after it was revealed that winter fuel payments for many off-grid homes have been further delayed and will not be paid until winter is over.
The Liberal Democrats have written to Dominic Raab, calling on him to “urgently” bring in a new law to stop journalists and campaigners being silenced through legal threats.
Responding to reports that the UK Government helped Yevgeny Prigozhin, a Putin ally and founder of the Wagner Group, to attempt to ‘subvert sanctions and silence a journalist,' Liberal Democrat Foreign Affairs Spokesperson Layla Moran MP said:
Orkney and Shetland MP, Alistair Carmichael, has today called for further detail on the rollout of the Alternative Fuel Payments (AFP) scheme giving £200 of energy bill support for off-grid families, including those using heating oil. Speaking in Parliament Mr Carmichael asked the Energy Minister for detail on the numbers of people expected to benefit from the scheme automatically and how those who need to apply for the payment can do so.
