Jess has an outstanding record of standing up for real Labour values, for workers' rights, for justice for Palestine and against the far-right's hate and division. She is exactly the kind of voice we need on Labour's NEC. I'm proud to back her and encourage you to do so too.

It would be completely wrong for a Government to stand by and allow companies to make excess profits from a war. That’s why we’re taxing these windfall profits to help with the cost of living. And why the Tories, Reform and the SNP are utterly wrong to oppose the windfall tax.
BP profits more than double as Iran war sends oil prices higher bbc.in/48qX7kU
Community note
The UK's Energy Profits Levy taxes only profits from UK oil and gas extraction, not BP's overseas oil trading profits that primarily drove the recent increase. bbc.com/news/articles/… gov.uk/government/pub…

Earlier today at Fairford where the UK military base is used by US Air Force to launch attacks in its illegal war on Iran. Hundreds out protesting against this use of our bases which demonstates the extent of UK’s involvement in Trump and Netanyahu’s war. Shut down the bases.
