Jim Fitzpatrick

After 22 years, as of midnight tonight I will no longer be the MP for Poplar and Limehouse. It has been an honour and a privilege to serve our part of East London. I'd like to thank my constituents, my local Party, family, friends and staff for all their support over the years.

@matthewsyed @thetimes Personal responsibility Matthew? Come on! If we’re not victims, how are all those lawyers going to make a living?😂. We lambast lying tech bros, but phone addiction starts with all of us thetimes.com/article/b986c9…

Labour MP James Naish presents a petition to Parliament calling for the assisted dying Bill to be enacted without delay, despite having voted against the Bill at Third Reading in the Commons.

New polling confirms public support for law change on assisted dying remains overwhelming - with 75% in favour and only 14% opposed.

Every gambling-related death should be investigated so lessons can be learned and future harm prevented. Learn more: gamblingwithlives.org/family-service/

No, you’re certainly not alone @matthewsyed @thetimes. It just feels that way sometimes……. We should put less faith in religion and more in the power of doubt thetimes.com/article/d5249d…

John Wilson recently died from bowel cancer. He spent his final moments pleading with the Lords not to block the assisted dying Bill. New polling clearly shows the public are behind him.

….”MAY”… 😂😂😂. So could many alternatives!! Covid stay-at-home order may have cost thousands of lives, inquiry finds telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/03/1…

100,000 people signing this petition is a powerful warning to Westminster: the public will not accept dying people being ignored while a handful of unelected peers talk this Bill out dignityindying.org.uk/news/public-pr…

Such sad news. You were a great comrade Phil to so many of us. Our hearts go out to Tracey and all the family.

New polling confirms every Scottish constituency backs law change on assisted dying. Three terminally ill women stand on plinths outside the Scottish Parliament in tribute to those most harmed by the ban. Ahead of the final vote, they send a clear message: Scotland’s will is unwavering.

@bletchleypark Thanks for this important message about the role played by women at Bletchley Park. Both my mother Pat Ward (nee Max) and my aunt Margaret Max served at Bletchley Park during WW2.

Baroness Alexander warns a minority of Lords attempting to block the assisted dying Bill: Scrutiny is welcome, deliberate obstruction is not. Call on the Government to ensure democracy is upheld. dignityindying.org.uk/petition

@ObserverUK reports fears of filibustering on the assisted dying Bill. Just six Peers risk blocking the will of the public - sparking calls for Government intervention. Tell the government: unelected Lords must scrutinise bills - not block them: dignityindying.org.uk/petition

@matthewsyed is fear of their extreme version of Islam not a factor here? Aren’t we just hoping the “Spanish Inquisition”will just pass?

Well said @matthewsyed @the times today, (again!!). Progressives seem oddly quiet about Iran’s murderous ayatollahs thetimes.com/article/b3584c…

Lord Pannick cuts to the core: if a doctor says you have a progressive, terminal illness and are likely to die within six months, you should have the choice to use this Bill. Amendments that undermine that choice strike at the very heart and purpose of the legislation.
