Feeling relaxed & recharged after visiting St Bride’s this weekend for the community health & wellbeing session. These kinds of sessions are so important in helping people switch off, connect with others & take a bit of time for their wellbeing. Huge thanks to @CllrNicholas

A very dark day for justice. Upholding the proscription of Palestine Action is a dangerous abuse of counter-terrorism powers. When protest is treated as terrorism, dissent is criminalised and the foundations of our democracy are weakened. theguardian.com/uk-news/2026…

An Israeli property conference selling off illegally occupied Palestinian lands is set to take place in London this Sunday. I've added my name to this letter, urging the government to uphold its obligations under international law and stop the event from going ahead.

Scale of sentences on the 4 young people who took direct action against the arms supplier to Israel is truly shocking. To impose years of imprisonment for protesting to save lives in Gaza is unjust, especially sentencing on terrorist grounds they were never convicted of by a jury

Almost 100 MPs and Peers are urging Ministers to prevent the 'Great Israeli Real Estate Event' taking place in London this weekend. The govt has an opportunity to uphold obligations under international law and take action against Israel’s illegal occupation of Palestine.

Wally was role model to me growing up and inspired me to become a youth and community worker - a path that has shaped my life ever since. He remains an inspiration to so many people across Liverpool and his voice matters now more than ever. liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liv…

2 million children. 14% of all UK children. Growing up in food poverty in one of the richest countries on earth. This is not an accident. It’s a political choice. I look forward to the day a Government Minister resigns over this national disgrace. #RightToFoodCommission #HungerIsAPoliticalChoice

We need to call this out for what it really is. These are far more than violent protests. This a far-right pogrom, legitimising the targeting of ethnic minorities on our streets. Where is the unequivocal condemnation from Farage and co? Their silence is deafening.

Lammy’s plans to cut jury trials have “the potential to increase mistrust in the criminal justice system among the black community.” We’ve been warning about this from day one - based on evidence from Lammy's own review in 2017! theguardian.com/law/2026/jun…

Jess represents the very best of our party & has an outstanding record of standing up for real Labour values. She's exactly the kind of voice we need on Labour’s NEC. I’ll be backing her for re-election to help ensure the NEC properly reflects every part of our movement.
Following an investigation, my suspension has been lifted. I have been fully reinstated with immediate effect I’ve spent my life fighting for a party that represents its members and serves working‑class people Im standing for re-election to Labours NEC Let’s get our party back

I've joined Labour colleagues in calling for a ban on trade with illegal Israeli settlements. I'm deeply concerned at the vast rise in violent Israeli settler attacks on Palestinians, and at settlement expansion. We need a comprehensive sanctions programme put in place now.
Together with almost 140 fellow Labour MPs, I have written to the Foreign Secretary to call for a ban on trade with illegal Israeli settlements. Our group includes every Labour select committee chair. It’s time to be clear that settlements have no viable economic future (1/2)

I spoke to @TheCanaryUK last week about my fears for justice in this case: "Justice must always be open and transparent. The public has a right to know how these proceedings are being conducted, what juries are being told and what they are not." thecanary.co/skwawkbox/2026/…
"Extraordinary and deeply authoritarian." Four Palestine Action activists are applying to remove a judge accused of bias from their case. Mr Justice Jeremy Johnson is expected to sentence the 'Filton 4' as terrorists – despite not being convicted of terror offences. The possible terror sentencing was kept a secret from the jury. @harriepw reports: novara.media/4vpLZxB
