Really pleased that the house voted (by 1) for the risk-based assessment and exclusion of MPs to be triggered at arrest. Sends a signal that parliament is serious about safe-guarding and improving our work-place

Today, I’m bringing together our Labour mayors to work on plans to boost economic growth in every region.

My mission-driven government would work from day one to put more money in people’s pockets and improve living standards across the country.

🔴 As the war rages on in , the country continues to descend into one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises.

The death toll is confirmed to be 15,000 people, but the real number is likely much higher. 💔

This one’s too good to be missed. An Impressionist masterpiece on display at – it looks stunning, and with an excellent exhibition built around it. Big thanks to National Gallery for lending it to us

Today we remember John Smith who died thirty years ago. I remember being with him the night before he died when he ended his speech with 'all we ask is the opportunity to serve.' John's whole life was a testimony to the nobility of public service.

It was an honour to speak to the brilliant women business leaders at CMI

Labour’s New Deal for Working People will empower women so they can thrive from their very first day on the job.

Labour will take action to protect interns from sexual harassment at work.

Despite his disastrous election results, the PM continues to insist that ‘his plan is working’. Fingers in his ears, it’s as if there’s no cost of living crisis, or that waiting lists aren’t sky high.

Whilst the country wants change, the PM offers more of the same - losing.

Yesterday the Chancellor said abolishing National Insurance was “policy” - a £46bn a year unfunded commitment.

Today the Prime Minister appeared not to know what the Chancellor had said. What on earth is going on?

More Tory chaos.

An Israeli offensive in Rafah will be catastrophic. The world has warned against it.

I asked Rt Hon Andrew Mitchell MP: what will the consequences be?

He didn’t have an answer.

'When we look at what's happening in Rafah, that is catastrophic. We're still demanding that Sunak provides a legal justification for arms sales to Israel.'

Labour's Jonathan Ashworth adds: 'you need international initiatives to bring around a lasting peace'

Labour will always stand up for Britain’s retirees. We’ll honour the triple lock offering certainty.

But the Tories £46 billion unfunded bombshell will mean - as Nigel Lawson warned - double taxation of pensioners.

Pensioners can’t trust Rishi Sunak.

14 years of chaos and decline under the Tories.

5 Prime Ministers, NHS waiting lists up, party gate, economy crashed, mortgages up, higher taxes.

And now repeating the same mistakes again with an unfunded £46 billion bombshell.

Watch the trailer here:

An Israeli attack on Rafah would be catastrophic. People in Gaza have nowhere safe to go.

Famine is spreading, children are starving, and tens of thousands have already been killed.

🛑 Stop the attack on Rafah 🛑

With more than a million Palestinian civilians sheltering in Rafah, an Israeli offensive must not go ahead.

There must be an immediate ceasefire, the immediate release of all hostages, and unimpeded aid into Gaza that can be delivered regularly, quickly and safely.
