Just a few thoughts on the smoking ban outside pubs, as someone raised in working men's clubs and who's parents did, and continue to, run working class boozers. The smoking ban outside pubs is a terrible idea and will put incredible pressure on pubs and working men's clubs.

Another one of our "highest quality candidates"? Shameful that not only an MP, but a former council leader who called himself a "renters champion", and introduced a landlords licensing scheme, rents out flats with black mould

I am shocked and sickened that a mould and ant infested property owning slum landlord has the Labour whip while the likes of Apsana Begum, Zarah Sultana, Ian Byrne don't because they voted to remove the two child benefit cap. Keir Starmer's high quality candidate

The final report of the Grenfell Tower Inquiry has now been published. On this day, we remember the 72 lives lost. This report demonstrates beyond doubt that an agenda of deregulation cost lives. We share the grief and anger of the bereaved, survivors and residents.

Seven years after the Grenfell Tower disaster, thousands of buildings are still covered in dangerous cladding. We need action on the building safety crisis, and firefighters must be given the resources they need. Lessons must be learned. Matt Wrack on Good Morning Britain

"I held out and held out, and it was a question of who blinked first. And they blinked first. You don’t become Britain’s first Black woman MP because you give in to being pushed around like that...I know my worth." My interview with Diane Abbott theguardian.com/politics/artic…

I'm unable to attend today's vote on winter fuel payment cuts, but I’d like to place my opposition on record. The Tories left the country in a dire economic state. But it is wrong to place the burden on the most vulnerable, who have suffered so much over the last 14 years.

We need to defend universalism. Universal benefits like Winter Fuel Payments & demands like Free School Meals for All ensure no-one falls through the cracks. It builds solidarity, reminding us that we all belong to the same society & deserve warmth, food security & dignity.

It is with great sadness that we note the passing yesterday of Tony Bunyan, founder of Statewatch, life-long campaigner for justice and freedom, veteran investigative journalist and IRR’s honorary President.
