Just won my first victory in the House of Lords. An amendment I tabled to the Crime and Policing Bill that will permanently do away with non-crime hate incidents -- co-sponsored by Lords Hogan-Howe and Strasberger -- won by 227 votes to 221. 👊

Everything that happened tonight in Australia and Iranian women’s football team. The Iranian-Australian community gathered outside the stadium initially just to chant against the regime and show love to our players who days prior refused to sing the regime’s anthem. As the bus was leaving Iranians started shouting “stay!” and “don’t leave” because only 3 days ago the players were threatened on national TV and called “wartime traitors” needing of “harsh punishment” Suddenly the girls communicated “help” to the Iranian fans using sign language from inside the bus, confirming all our worries about their lives being in danger. Iranians then quickly rushed to close the road and stop the bus to save their lives, but the Australian police stepped it and stopped us. We witnessed hostage taking in-front of our own eyes. Truly a dark day for women’s sports.
