Israel's deliberate starvation of Gaza is a war crime. Today I told the Government that if it now refuses to fund UNRWA, it will be aiding and abetting Israel's war crimes.
The Tories have opened up a new war on disabled people. Just like their attacks on trade unionists and on asylum seekers, this is an attempt to shift the blame for the mess the Tories have made. Let's show our full solidarity with disabled people and fight back against this!
Thank you Richard for being a champion of the hospice movement and for speaking out about the difference made by @stgemmashospice and the need for more sustainable NHS funding.

Use your voice this Thursday to send Rishi Sunak and the Tories a message - the change we need starts now.
Today is International Workers’ Memorial Day, when we remember all those killed or injured at work. As we remember the dead, we re-affirm our commitment to fight like hell for the living. #IWMD24
In Gipton with Labour candidate Arif Hussain and team. The Tory government has cut £2.5 billion from Leeds’ Council funding since 2010 - that’s around £75 million per Ward. Imagine what £75 million could have done in Gipton & Harehills. Vote Labour to send the Tories a message!
The Tories have just blocked my Bill to stop MPs taking money from oil and gas giants. But that won't stop us. I'll be bringing it back in June. It's time to stop oil and gas giants from polluting our politics.
Rishi Sunak and Liz Truss got big donations linked to fossil fuel firms for their Tory leadership bids. One ex-Chancellor pocketed £1 MILLION+ from an oil company whilst an MP. Today I'm bringing a Bill to ban MPs taking any funding from oil & gas firms. leftfootforward.org/2024/04/its-ti…
Congratulations @Nath_Brudenell - more than well deserved! The Brudenell can’t be beaten!

It's shameful that our Government is effectively silent on the mass graves being found in Gaza. It should be demanding a genuinely independent investigation that gets to the truth. And it should be demanding that those responsible for war crimes are held to account.
This Friday I'm bringing a Parliamentary Bill to ban MPs taking a single penny from oil & gas companies. These firms have driven up your energy bills and brought us to the edge of climate catastrophe. Yet some MPs have pocketed vast sums of money from them. It must be stopped.
Hospices provide essential end-of-life care and many of us have been touched by the wonderful care they give. But they face a funding crisis. This week I paid tribute to @stgemmashospice in Leeds and called on the Government to ensure all hospices have the funding they need.
The same fossil fuel firms behind record energy bills have brought us to the cliff edge of climate catastrophe. This week I'm bringing a Bill to stop MPs taking any financial donations from oil and gas firms. It's time to kick oil money out of politics. leftfootforward.org/2024/04/its-ti…
Great that a Labour Government will bring rail back into public ownership. Privatised rail companies have hiked prices while delivering worse and worse services. It's time to put the public before the profits of rip-off rail companies.
Today Ministers refused to turn up to the Committee discussing arms exports to Israel. And when they do turn up in Parliament, they mislead MPs about arms sales to Israel and push the false claim that Britain has one of the most robust arms controls licence systems in the world.
Outrageous that Ministers failed to show up to our committee today. It’s completely disrespectful of our parliamentary democracy. They should be engaging with us & answering our questions on the important issues concerning the licensing of UK arms exports, not avoiding them.

Super-rich landlords and property firms help bankroll the Tories Today they've got their payback. The Tories have tabled more than 200 amendments that have gutted the Renters Reform Bill that's in Parliament today. The whole thing stinks.
People across East Leeds raise with me their difficulty in getting access to a dentist. Across the country, we're hearing horrific stories of people having to pull out their own teeth. In Parliament I called on the Government to back the @DailyMirror Dentists For All campaign.
It is clear from the evidence that has come out from the High Court case today into UK arms sales to Israel that our Government has repeatedly misled Parliament. End arms sales to Israel now! caat.org.uk/news/media-rel…

On #WorkersMemorialDay, also known as International Workers' Memorial Day, two shocking images showing the seedy underbelly of the Glory that was Athens. Those elegant symposia required backbreaking furniture removals; the plight of the shackled Laureion miners was unspeakable.
In the West Midlands, 66,000 children in poverty don’t qualify for a free school meal. As Mayor, I want to fix that. And with @zarahsultana I’ll campaign for universal free school meals for our children.
Huge thanks to everyone who came and those who spoke at our #IWMD event today. Thanks to the @UniteNEYH brass band who played for us as we remembered the dead including Leeds teacher Anne Maguire killed ten years ago. Not forgotten #rememberthedead #fightfortheliving

Yesterday our case with @alhaq_org challenging UK arms exports to Israel revealed new and important information. Here are 5 things we learned:
Labour will build the people’s railway. It offers us the chance to make train travel affordable, reliable and accessible in rural communities with smaller station. I look forward to campaigning for it at the next election and voting for it in the next Parliament.
Britain invented the railways and introduced them to the world. We deserve to be proud of that legacy, but under the Conservatives it is being trashed. Under Labour a publicly owned Great British Railways will be central to our national renewal 👇 mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…
