Another stonker of a week for us - gaining from the Conservatives and the Green Party in Surrey and from Labour in Preston. The media might not tell you this but the Lib Dems are winning all over the place. This week's by-election scorecard 💪 Lib Dems 7 Reform 1 Con 1 Ind 1
Rory Kinnear coming in with the Gutenburg Bible is the kind of nonsense I love #TheDiplomat for.
Going to cook the missus some rice "1980's white person style" so she can see what she's been missing all her life.
