Earlier today I waited to ask this Question in the House of Commons but was not granted the opportunity. So with the 37th anniversary of #Hillsborough less than four weeks away, I’ll ask it here instead: What precisely is the Government’s objection to my amendment to the #HillsboroughLaw? The very least bereaved families, survivors and campaigners deserve is an answer. #JFT97 #HillsboroughLawNow

🗨️ "This is gesture politics and virtue-signalling legislation that is designed to look busy rather than make a difference" @FinCarson MSP, @SP_RuralAffairs Committee Convener, widely criticises the move to ban greyhound racing in Scotland, where no racing even takes place ⤵️

Labour-affiliated unions were united with a clear message to @Keir_Starmer today. His Government must implement the ERA so it delivers real change for workers in practice, without loopholes that undermine the rights. We were clear - fulfiling the manifesto promise to implement the Plan to Make Work Pay in full is essential to delivering an economy that works for working people.

Jo was sexually harassed at work. She reported it. She lost her job, her health, her income. She did everything right. The system still failed her. Reporting shouldn't cost you everything. Help us change that 👇

London rightly hosts celebrations of all religious communities. This disgraceful statement by a British MP targeting British Muslims must be called out. Singling out British Muslims for an Open Iftar is exactly how the open season on Muslims is normalised. Politicians have a duty to stop fanning the flames of hatred against British Muslims.
Nick Timothy MP@NJ_Timothy

Too many are too polite to say this. But mass ritual prayer in public places is an act of domination. The adhan - which declares there is no god but allah and Muhammad is his messenger - is, when called in a public place, a declaration of domination. Perform these rituals in mosques if you wish. But they are not welcome in our public places and shared institutions. And given their explicit repudiation of Christianity they certainly do not belong in our churches and cathedrals. I am not suggesting everybody at Trafalgar Square last night is an Islamist. But the domination of public places is straight from the Islamist playbook. Trafalgar Square belongs to all of us. It is a national memorial to our independence and our salvation. Last night was not like a televised football match or a St Patrick’s Day celebration. It was an act of domination and therefore division. It shouldn’t happen again.

Ameen Hadi is a respected UNISON rep who’s spent years standing up for workers & communities. A couple of years ago he was recognised with UNISON’s Nelson Mandela Award for that. He’s now under attack from the right. ✊ Please sign and share the petition: actionnetwork.org/petitions/defe…

“It is unacceptable that, in 2026, I have to stand up in Parliament and spell out that Islamophobic hatred fuelled by national figures is putting Muslim lives at risk.” We must confront this toxic climate. The Britain I know is better than this. Read my op-ed LeftFootFwd leftfootforward.org/2026/03/relent…

People are missing NHS appointments because Royal Mail is not delivering their letters. @IanLaveryMP is right, it's time to take it back into public ownership

Jo was sexually harassed at work for over a year. It affected every part of her life - her job, her health, and her ability to ever feel safe at work again. Watch her full story below. youtu.be/-a3m5hduJDo

Keir Starmer, you have allowed my party, the party of Keir Hardie, Clem Attlee, Aneurin Bevan, Harold Wilson, Barbara Castle, Tony Benn to be dragged into the gutter by Mandelson, McSweeney, Simons & Labour Together. We need an independent inquiry into LT & its influence.

The situation with Royal Mail deliveries is intolerable. If the private owners fail to do their job, then Royal Mail should be taken back into public ownership. I took part in an Urgent Question granted to my colleague @IanLaveryMP today.

🚨NEW🚨 COMMENT from @GMBGarySmith - Stop Bad Bosses Blocking Unions "Our members in Amazon are working flat out. Pennies above minimum wage. Constant surveillance. Brutal conditions in distribution centres. They deserve a union at their backs. And we will not stop until they get it. But the law has to be strong enough to stop bad bosses blocking us at the gate." labourunions.org.uk/tradeunionacce…

Happy International Women's Day - to the organisers, the agitators, the big voices, the quiet do-ers, the so-called "difficult" women - the women of the union movement who are fighting for equality and winning for women every single day. We stand on the shoulders of the sisters who went before - the equal pay warriors, the glass ceiling smashers, the women who had to fight for their seat at the table. We won't stop organising, agitating and standing together for women's equality at work, in society and in the wider world. #IWD2026

A fantastic day in Ashington with @IanByrneMP and @IanLaveryMP for the Right to Food Commission. Hunger is a political failure. We need to pass into law the Right to Food so that no one in our country goes hungry.

In Parliament, I made it clear: Islamophobia has real-world consequences. When politicians and journalists fan the flames, Muslims pay the price. This must end.
