Like the Liberal Democrats, D66 is a progressive liberal party that holds its roots in the free-spirited leftist liberal party.

On a strong Europe, Mr. Jetten said:

"We find ourselves in an unprecedented, chaotic and ever-worsening political situation. The situation is so alarming that it not only requires the frank truth-speaking that is possible among friends, but also calls for all the moral support and consolation that friends can give."

Today Theresa May announced that she was open to extending the transition period - a clear admittance that her Brexit deal is unworkable.

The Prime Minister is now left to defend a policy she doesn't really believe in, which her cabinet are still squabbling over - and which is it increasingly clear she can't deliver.

What's been happening?

The Liberal Democrats have been dedicated more money, and more time and more of our key campaigners to stopping Brexit.

We've still got time to stop Brexit and we're ramping up our campaign. Big time.

And it's working. So far we have:

• Sent 355,000 target letters to voters
• Reached 2,200,000 voters online
• Recruited 150,000 campaign supporters
• Recruited 60,000 new members because of our Brexit campaigning
• Held 2 million conversations on Brexit with voters
• Defeated the government 17 times in parliament on Brexit
• Been a part of 5 national anti-Brexit marches, with the 6^th happening this weekend

Businesses with 500+ staff should be forced to reveal how they help employees with mental health issues if they fail to disclose the information voluntarily.

The Companies Act should be amended so employers have to report on workplace mental health.

Firms must become far more transparent about how they support staff with mental health issues, as well as better measure key mental health indicators such as absences.

Once again we've seen us winning a fantastic by-election victory, this time up in Chesterfield on 4 October, with Tony Rogers increasing our vote share to 47% and gaining the seat off Labour, proving that once again where we work hard and find strong local champions, we win. Tony and his team did everything needed to get our message out, find out where our supporters were, and then getting them out to vote on polling day. Congratulations to him and his team, and also to our other winners in local government by elections.
