Movements against past injustices (e.g. the Vietnam war or apartheid South Africa) were demonised at the time but were vindicated by history.

The same will be true of protests against genocide in Gaza.

Solidarity with those standing-up for what's right, here & around the world.

45 years ago today, Blair Peach, a schoolteacher and anti-racist campaigner, died as a result of being hit over the head by police. He, along with thousands of others, was demonstrating against the National Front in Southall. Rest in power.

1/6 Today @glan_law & Palestinian rights group @alhaq had their case revived + granted a full judicial review hearing at High Court on October. This challenges the UK govts failure to halt weapons exports to Israel, risking violations of international humanitarian law in Gaza.

Parliament passed the Rwanda Bill last night, clearing the way for the Tories' cruel anti-refugee policy.

Today five people โ€“ including a child โ€“ died in the Channel as they sought sanctuary in Britain.

Instead of demonising refugees, we must show humanity & create safe routes.

Today marks the start of Black Maternal Health Awareness Week.

Black mothers remain 4x more likely to die in pregnancy, childbirth & postpartum.

This week is a reminder that action is needed to address the inequalities Black women face at every stage of the birthingย journey.

Heart-breaking for the Sky Blues.

Fighting back into the game and then denied a last minute winner by such a tight VAR decision.

You did the city so proud Coventry City ๐Ÿฉต๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ

Fingers crossed for the Sky Blues today!

A huge game against Man United and the club's first FA Cup semi-final since 1987, when the team went on to lift the trophy. Can it be done again?!

Good luck Coventry City! ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿฉต

The richest Prime Minister in history โ€“ worth an estimated ยฃ529,000,000 โ€“ is demonising sick and disabled people.

He wants us to blame our problems on anyone but the real culprits:

The Tory government, their super-rich donors, and a system that puts greed before human need.

The Tories are attacking the right to strike, limiting the power of workers to fight for better wages and services.

But the Fire Brigades Union is fighting back, calling on employers not to implement the new law.

Join their call: fbu.org.uk/campaigns/defeโ€ฆ

It was good to visit the recently revamped tennis courts at Spencer Park last week, hearing about investment in grassroots tennis and the upcoming tennis open day at the park.

Next time I'll have to bring my tennis gear! ๐Ÿ‘€๐ŸŽพ

This is fantastic from Sadiq Khan:

He has pledged to make free school meals for all primary school pupils *permanent* if he's re-elected on 2 May.

This should be rolled out across the country, guaranteeing every primary school pupil gets a hot, healthy meal each day.

Stop arming Israel.

In solidarity with the Palestinian people, more than 67,000 people have signed a petition calling on UK Govt to stop sending arms to Israel.

Today I joined @PSCUpdates War on Want and fellow MPs in presenting that petition to Number 10 Downing Street.
