1/4 I have listened carefully to the Prime Minister’s speech. Sir Keir Starmer is a decent, principled and kind man. But his leadership is not working, and it is with genuine regret that I say so.

3/4 Loyalty matters. Loyalty to him, to the Party and to each other. But today loyalty lies with our elected members across the country and with the 1,500 who lost their seats last week. It does not lie in maintaining a course that is not commanding confidence.

4/4. What the Party needs now is leadership with a credible vision for the country, a clear sense of direction, purpose and ambition. Those skills exist within our ranks, and I am confident we can find a leader who has them.

MPs will be prevented from taking on second jobs that fail to meet a new test of putting constituents first, under government plans to “turn the page” on an era of sleaze and scandal theguardian.com/politics/art…

No @markjenk I'm not. Payroll have been instructed to stop all allowances following my election to parliament. I assume this is what you did with your council allowance when you were elected in 2019.

Across the country people are switching to today’s changed Labour Party so we can change Britain together. Voting Labour on Thursday 2 May is the first step towards a mission-led Labour government.

It was five years ago today that the Tories promised to scrap ‘no-fault’ section 21 evictions. Now the government is proposing to amend its own Renters Reform Bill to further delay the implementation of the ban. Labour will abolish section 21 immediately. No ifs, no buts.

I’d like to wish everyone a Happy Easter and hope that the fantastic volunteers who’ve been working on my campaign enjoy a day off.

When Rishi Sunak says his “plan is working”, what exactly is his plan? 300,000 more kids in poverty? 5th of population struggling with basic needs?

Today we remember the six million Jewish people murdered in the Holocaust, and those in genocides since. Hearing the powerful stories of Holocaust and Srebrenica survivors is as humbling as it is heartbreaking. They serve as an important reminder of the fragility of freedom.
