Great to join Royal Falcons FC for presentation day to celebrate the success of the kids & dedication of Steve & Angela & the coaches.
Grassroots sport is important in Newham & we’ve got talented youngsters. Clubs like this are important to why we produce so many great players.

LFPME welcomes the measures announced yesterday - but they must be followed up with robust enforcement measures to ensure no UK entity is complicit in supporting illegal settlements.

This week along with almost 140 other Labour MPs I wrote to the Foreign Secretary demanding a ban on trade will illegal Israeli settlements.
Illegal settlement expansion, and settler violence, are unacceptable and against international law.

There has been an appalling rise in violent settler attacks on Palestinians; and settlement expansion, designed to prevent a two-state solution ever happening.
It is time for stronger action.

I joined the celebrations at Custom House Baptist Church this weekend for the official re-opening after 2 years of refurbishment.
The newly expanded building looks fantastic and provides a great facilities for the local community.
A great new chapter in their 111 year history!

Yesterday, I was at the @QVSR1 for the unveiling of the @EnglishHeritage blue plaque for Kamal Chunchie.
This is a long awaited memorial to Kamal Chunchie, a pioneering campaigner and preacher on a building that continues his work to provide shelter and support.

I met with London Sport to hear about their plans in West Ham and Beckton.
They are investing in Newham where we have a fast growing population and interest in sport. They’re keen to work with local people, sports and community groups to identify the need and demand here.

My team resolved 333 cases for residents in West Ham and Beckton last month.

Words of condemnation have so far done little to deter ongoing violations.
We must now act to pressure Israeli authorities to adhere by the terms of the ceasefire, protect intl law, increase aid and humanitarian assistance to Palestinian civilians, and uphold accountability.

Wow! The Beckon Corridor in Newham is looking great💚
It's making walking, wheeling & cycling safer & more accessible for everyone.
Work include new paths & lighting from Beckton DLR to Beckton Park - connecting local communities to green spaces in the area.

Whilst Keir Starmer is on the brink of resignation and job losses reach record levels, this is what the Deputy Prime Minister is focused on.
(we’re not joking he literally posted this bizarre video to his own TikTok)

When I visited #ComicCon at the Excel this weekend I thought it was great to see a Careers Fair linking up people with skills and the Games industry.
Also offering advice on how to sell your skills or get your cv right when looking for jobs in the sector.

Twice a year #comiccon comes to the Royal Docks filling the Excel and surrounding area with some fantastic costumes
It’s the hottest day of the year, it took some commitment & stamina to wear some of the costumes but everyone was upbeat & having fun
