Stephen Kinnock explains the Dublin agreement where the UK could send asylum seekers back to the first country they stepped into the EU, when we were members of the EU With Brexit, when we left the EU, we were no longer able to do that Fiona Bruce interjects and says we didn't use the Dublin agreement to do that very often, and she's right Because the Dublin agreement served as a deterrent As soon as we left the EU, the deterrent was gone, and we were longer able to use it That's also why Farage's Brexit Boats Of Asylum Seekers shot up after Brexit because they knew the UK was outside of the EU, and couldn't apply the Dublin agreement to return people

@LucyRigby @hmtreasury @RachelReevesMP An excellent appointment. Well done @LucyRigby 👏🏻

Delighted to be appointed Economic Secretary to @hmtreasury, & to be working alongside Chancellor @RachelReevesMP & our excellent Treasury team. It’s never been so important that we harness the might of our financial services sector, & drive investment & growth right across 🇬🇧

It is absolutely time for our Armed Forces to lead the way, to set an example and to be an exemplary employer. There is no room in the Services for racism, sexism, homophobia or misogyny. No room at all.

Abuse has no place in politics. It disproportionately deters women. And it's getting worse, as LWN sisters know all too well. It is time for action: social media, police & political parties must do more to #diffuseabuse. Join LWN & sign up to our campaign lwn.org.uk/lwn_diffuse_ab…

Great to see the government delivering its commitment to an inquiry into Orgreave. Let’s hope it will deliver justice for the miners and their families who were brutalised by the Police and demonised by the right wing press and politicians 40 years ago.

A statutory inquiry into Orgreave has finally been announced. This is a long overdue step welcomed across our movement. #Orgreave We stand with the miners, campaigners and trade unionists whose determination made it possible.✊ theguardian.com/politics/2025/…

Join our expert panel tomorrow (Tue) for this fascinating insight into women in the forces w/ @EmmaLewell @Louise_Jones_MP @DrSophyAntrobus @AlexFawbert & LWN Chair @ThangamDebb 🫡 lwn.org.uk/women_in_the_a…

Sunday flex, doing a shift in St George’s today. Please stay hydrated in this heat, even if it’s cloudy and even if you’re indoors. Also please check in on your older neighbours if you can. ❤️

The Armed Forces Covenant Ensuring that the Armed Forces community is not disadvantaged due to service. I am delighted to announce on Armed Forces week that the Covenant Legal Duty will be extended from four to fourteen Government Departments Housing @mtpennycook Education @bphillipsonMP Healthcare @wesstreeting Social care @SKinnock Childcare @JanetDaby Employment and service in the Armed Forces Personal taxation @jamesmurray_ldn Welfare benefits @stephenctimms Criminal justice @DianaJohnsonMP Immigration @angelaeagle Citizenship @SeemaMalhotra1 Pensions @leicesterliz Service related compensation Transport @Heidi_Labour A huge step forward—-much more to go but thank you to all the Government Departments for making this happen.

This is excellent news. As a service leaver I didn’t really know what the Covenant meant or would do for me practically. So great to see the Covenant get some teeth to make a real difference.

We are delighted to add another speaker to the line up of our PIP rally tomorrow: the incredible @AlexFawbert #ProtectPIP #LCMHrally 🌹

9years ago today Jo was murdered. I think about her every single day and am lucky to have so many wonderful memories, but the pain never goes. Whatever our views we must never normalise abuse, threats, intimidation and political violence #JoCox #Sisters #MoreInCommon

A visual paints a thousand words. Great campaigning yet again by my friend and colleague @LizzieLabour about the realities for women when it comes to health inequalities.
