Rachel Reeves cuts back on taxes to non-doms. She listens to the international billionaire class, but not to freezing British pensioners theguardian.com/politics/2025/…

Gross opportunism by Kemi Badenoch. Claiming concern about grooming gangs now. But as shadow Minister for Women she never mentioned the issue in Parliament once.

The government has apologised for the injustice suffered by the WASPI women after the ombudsman's finding of maladministration. But what good is an apology without steps towards redress? In today's Westminster Hall debate, I called for WASPI women to be compensated.

Starmer 5th UK prime minister promising to make the UK “a world leader” in AI. Including: David Cameron; Theresa May; Boris Johnson; Rishi Sunak and now Starmer. Exaggerated claims by them, just as overblown now.

MPs rated on a scale of 0 to 100, with 0 being the most leftwing and 100 being the most rightwing. Labour’s Nadia Whittome and Diane Abbott came out as the most leftwing MPs from a major party,

Appalling that BBC’s Laura Kunnisberg gives a platform to Nigel Farage, the Elon Musk apologist, who will say anything for a $100million donation from Musk

Terrific getting rid of this last vestige of colonial rule. In the words of Bob Marley “Get up. Stand up” theguardian.com/world/2024/dec…

Adopting anti-migrant rhetoric can only reinforce the arguments of Reform newstatesman.com/politics/labou…

Fraser Nelson’s documentary demonises people on benefit. Says it’s a scandal. But the real scandal is super-wealthy avoiding £billions by tax evasion.

Diane Abbott: I stood up to Keir Starmer - and we haven’t spoken in four years independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

We have been down this route before. It didn't work then either. newstatesman.com/politics/labou… Starmer wants immigration control to be a Labour cause.

Just yesterday NHS chiefs told Streeting they have not been given sufficient resources to meet his waiting list targets. They are right - they have not. Demanding unreachable targets when funds are inadequate will just deepen the crisis in the NHS. thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…

Gordon Brown is completely right on this. If anyone seriously wants to tackle child poverty then they must support scrapping the 2-child benefit cap. inews.co.uk/news/politics/…

Hackney Council must step up to oppose genocide #GazaGenocide‌

If Streeting was serious about tackling bad NHS management he would consult people who represent the workers e.g. BMA, RCN, Unison. Instead he brings in Alan Milburn as a precursor to more privatisation

Wes Streeting’s cascade of abuse of NHS managers and medics is a pretext for further and faster privatisation. theguardian.com/society/2024/n…

On Saturday and every day, I am proud to stand up to racism and the far right. @AntiRacismDay

📢 Diane Abbott at the huge demonstration against Tommy Robinson's fascist mobilisation: "There are many more of us than you and you shall not pass!"

We're delighted @HackneyAbbott is speaking at the rally on Sat #26Oct #StandUpToRacism national demo to #StopTommyRobinson

Laws brought in under the last Tory government are seeing peaceful protesters imprisoned for lengthy terms. This week, I asked the Home Office whether they will review these silencing laws with a view to repealing them and protecting the right to protest.
