Confirmed Increase in Employer NICs by 1.2%, and reduced secondary threshold to £5000 a year. Alongside the new rate of NLW, another increase in the cost of operating for many charities. Some additional support is needed to help them remain sustainable. #AutumnBudget

Someone else said: “Art Nouveau is when it looks made by elves. Art Deco is when it looks made by dwarves.” And after looking into it, I think they’re a genius and 100% correct.

@jryancollins Well done Josh 👏👏

Last year I was commissioned by the UK ministry of housing to write a report on the demand side-drivers of the housing affordability crisis. After some election-related delays, here it is. (1/13) ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/publi…

@gareththomasMP Congratulations Gareth! Will you be taking on responsibility for the manifesto stuff around diverse business, coops and mutuals?

I’ve started work as a Minister at the Department for Business & Trade, a wonderful opportunity to champion the Small Businesses that are the lifeblood of our economy. But most of all, I’m glad to be back at my weekly Harrow advice surgery. (3/4)

When I visit schools across Harrow, I’m often asked: What is my favourite part of being a MP? The answer is: Being able to help people in my local community. The last week has been fantastic. Seeing the difference a Labour Government has already made: (1/4)

🚨 BREAKING: Russia has just sentenced five climate activists to a whopping 21 years in prison for a PEACEFUL protest. Oh, wait, did we say Russia? We meant the UK.

Interesting to see civil society in France coming together 9 days after the election to put pressure on politicians to appoint new Ministers.
