I always thought I was a normal human being. Until, that is, as a child, I realized that my visual impairment meant that I was told I was "handicapped". I always thought I was normal.

On Monday night some of you may have been watching 'Code of a Killer' the story of the first murderer to be caught through DNA fingerprinting, pioneered by Dr Alec Jefferys at Leicester University. Professor Robert (Bob) Pritchard, the man who set up and recruited him to the Genetics Dept at the University passed away over the weekend after a long period in a vegetative state. As well as being a notable scientist he was a prominent Liberal activist for over two decades.
The UK is facing a mental health emergency. Liberal Democrats have a proud record of pushing Britain’s mental health services forward. Now we are offering the bold solutions we need to fight the crisis unfolding in our communities.
British universities are a world-leading export and an engine for innovation, but today, the sector is at a breaking point. Liberal Democrats have passed a new plan to deliver a fairer deal for students and graduates and secure the future of the sector.
Liberal Democrats are committed to building town centres that inspire pride for generations to come. It is time to stop ignoring the decline of our high streets and breathe new life into them as vibrant hubs for the future.
