I want to lead the Liberal Democrats because I am ambitious about our future.

Figures published today have shown that of the 108 people at the BBC who earn more than £150,000, just 34 are women.

How is it possible that, in a very wealthy borough like Kensington and Chelsea, dozens of people can burn to death in their own homes?

Pride is a colourful, energetic celebration of freedom, love and acceptance. Each year I am amazed as thousands of people of all sexualities take to the streets in the name of freedom and equality.
