21 May 2026Defence & Securityangry“Far-right figure Itamar Ben-Gvir shares footage of himself taunting bound international detainees“ Horrific behavior. And not for the first time from him. This deserves international condemnation and full accountability. www.theguardian.com/news/video/2...
21 May 2026Culture & CommunitymeasuredOrganisations which also want to remain trans-inclusive need to receive support on how to do so within the law. In a similar way, those that wish to exclude trans men and women from their spaces also need to know how to do so without breaching individual rights to privacy. (6/7)
21 May 2026Social CareempatheticThe burden lies with Government to explain how it will support our trans community who are vulnerable to hatred and humiliation at work, in education, in leisure activities and public events. (5/7)
21 May 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredWe will be asking the Chair of the EHRC and the Minister for Women & Equalities to answer questions on the revised Code of Practice at forthcoming Women and Equalities Select Committee meetings. These will take place as soon as possible. (4/7)
21 May 2026ImmigrationmeasuredWe must see improvements in how Government departments work with agencies to deliver decisions like this quicker. (3/7)
21 May 2026OtherempatheticFor too many though, the damage done to them and to their families in this interim period has been devastating and needless. I fear with expected legal challenges, this hellish limbo will continue. (2/7)
21 May 2026Culture & CommunityempatheticToday’s EHRC Code of Practice is overdue and the devil is in the detail and delivery. I first want to extend my support and understanding to trans people who have spent far too long in uncertainty, waiting for confirmation on how they will be able to live out their daily lives in public. 🧵 (1/7)
20 May 2026Health & NHSmeasuredBBL practitioner admits procedures were not safe in court hearing. This is why our select committee report recommended that liquid BBLs on the high street should be banned immediately. There is no reason for Ministers to delay a ban. @commonswec.parliament.uk www.itv.com/news/2026-05...
20 May 2026Technology & DigitalmeasuredNot sure you’ve seen my earlier work…also my consistent lobbying of the government to stop using x as official comms. I also recently led the Women & Equalities committee to be the first parliamentary body to come off the platform. bsky.app/profile/sara...
20 May 2026Technology & DigitalangryOfcom has to get a grip of the dangerous and growing threat that online hate speech is posing to our democracy and our communities. The longer X is allowed to break our laws with impunity, the more damage will be done.
18 May 2026Cost of LivingdefensiveIf you’re one of the people having to pay up to £800 for a driving test, this is a huge difference and no sticking plaster to them.
18 May 2026TransportcelebratoryThis was a massive problem for learner drivers in Luton. A Labour government has fixed what the Tories turned a blind eye to. #notallthesame www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
16 May 2026Crime & PolicingmeasuredTwo in five arrested for the summer’s UK riots had been reported for domestic abuse. Police data shows overlap between public violent disorder + domestic abuse. I wonder what the stat will be today? Our country is so much better than Yaxely Lennon and his crew. The majority of us love, not hate🫶
15 May 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredNo one wants the chaos of the last decade of British politics - but we must be honest that the current leadership isn't working. We need a Labour govt and leader that can get on with the job, make the progress we all need to see and be the positive alternative - a voice for hope in our country.
15 May 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredDespite what the caption/pic looks like, both Gordon and I agreed on a lot. This is bigger than one person or even one party. We both agree Andy Burnham should be allowed to stand in Makerfield and that we want a Labour government that best serves our country. youtu.be/ns8Cb3xeQ2k?...
13 May 2026TransportcelebratoryFrom yesterday, new rules came in that mean now only learner drivers could book tests - and they can only be changed twice. This will help bring down waiting times and ensure scammers can't exploit our system.
13 May 2026Transportmeasured🚗 Taking action on driving tests Lots of constituents contact me about long wait times and unfair markups on driving tests - I raised the issue a few months ago in Parliament.
12 May 2026Culture & CommunitycelebratoryIt was brilliant to join veterans & their families to open the new Veterans and Families Hub at the Royal British Legion in Luton. From this week, it will be open every Monday, 11-4pm. I can’t wait to see this go from strength to strength and well done to everyone involved in getting this going.
11 May 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredOur country and party simply cannot afford more of the same - people want politics and politicians who connect on a human level, are true to our Labour values and will deliver for our communities. (3/3)
11 May 2026Defence & SecuritymeasuredKnee jerk reactions and a rushed process will only increase instability in an already unstable world - that would be unforgivable in the current global climate. (2/3)
11 May 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredThe Prime Minister needs to show he understands the scale of the challenge facing our country. Today’s speech fell short and if it is just more of the same, then he has to lay a timetable for an orderly transition. (1/3)
7 May 2026MP & ParliamentcelebratoryWhat have Labur done for you? All this and more: 🏡 Renter’s Rights 🏥 8500 more mental health workers in the NHS (3 years ahead of schedule) 🛑 stopping new council homes being sold off 🚭 smoking ban to protect children ⏱️ NHS waiting list going down 📚 more SEND funds ✋ kept us out of Trump’s war
6 May 2026Technology & DigitalangryUpdate on this report of Islamophobia - yesterday, Facebook came back to me to say that they reviewed this post and it did not violate their standards. Begs the question, what does meta think Islamophobia actually looks like? Because this looks like a blatant example to me and most others.
6 May 2026Culture & CommunityangryIt was wrong when the media did this to Ed Miliband when he was leader and it is wrong to do this to Polanski. Genuinely have no idea how awfulness like this gets past editors… It’s really not that hard to criticise policies or politicians without being antisemitic.
5 May 2026MP & ParliamentangryThis is disgusting but it’s not just one Reform candidate, it’s become a regular of output of hatred. If Farage doesn’t deal with them then he isn’t just complicit, he is actively endorsing the racism, misogony and Islamophobia that his candidates preach. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
2 May 2026media-criticismsarcasticThis is off the charts mad and bad for so many reasons. But it’s telling that the Telegraph think it’s only mum’s that do the laundry. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Someone needs to tell the Telegraph it’s 2026 not 1926.
2 May 2026MP & ParliamentdefensiveI think maybe check out some of my earlier work before saying this. Thanks
2 May 2026MP & ParliamentsarcasticOooft, that was almost as heavy as the baggage Nigel Farage carries with him. Reform stands by: Women beating MPs, Homophobia, Misogynists, Racism, Putin, Trump, Not to mention the dodgy £5 million crypto 👀👀 www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
30 Apr 2026Crime & Policingangry“neo-Nazi who drew up a "kill list" of customers + colleagues at Tesco where he worked has been found guilty of planning a mass gun attack.” He listed “race traitors” for having non-white partners. Thank god he was stopped. Hatred like this has no place in our society news.sky.com/story/neo-na...
29 Apr 2026Culture & CommunityempatheticDeeply saddened to hear of another attack targeting the Jewish community in north London. My thoughts are with the victims and their families, and those across the country understandably feeling fearful. Antisemitism should have no place in the UK.
