Just had coffee with Father Fadriquela, Chairperson of the Campaign for Human Rights in the Philippines. We discussed the current situation and major national issues, in preparation for my move. We also discussed music sa Pinas! I might have to bring my saxophone 🎷

Some of the great teams out with me in Ampthill this afternoon 🌹 Great to speak to several lifelong conservative voters backing our plan to turn things around in Mid Beds, and plenty of Lib Dem and Green supporters recognising we’re the tactical choice for change this time! 🗳️

The Philippines is still 3rd highest worldwide in killings of environmental defenders. Global Witness annual report links this tragedy to president Marcos Jr's failure to act against commercial interests. globalwitness.org/en/campaigns/e… #StoptheKillings

NTF-ELCAC has a lot of explaining to do, w/ the bizarre turn of events in the disappearance case of the 2 environmental activists. Activism or dissidence is not a crime. Dealing w/ it or even w/ insurgency thru foul or criminal means is highly deplorable.

More than anything else, the ongoing heated congressional debate on the confi/intel funds of the OVP/DepEd is an issue of public perception. As I see it, the side defending the CIF allocation of OVP/DepEd & other offices that are not genuinely entitled to it is losing (1/4)

I will be the hard working, full-time MP that Mid Bedfordshire deserves. Here are my five pledges:

LOOK: Ali Baba, the General Secretary of the National Union of Textile Garment and Tailoring Workers of Nigeria (NUTGTWN), expresses support for Filipino fisherfolk in their fight against reclamation in Manila Bay and throughout the Philippines. #SavaManilaBay

Suella Braverman is wrong. Multiculturalism isn’t the problem. But we know what the problem is… #bbcqt

David, Del Monte and Encela were investigating human rights violations related to reports of bombings and shelling in the area earlier this year which were connected to mining and quarrying projects that affected the residents and indigenous people. bulatlat.com/2023/10/04/3-y…

It’s dangerous. Being a social justice warrior, fighting to protect human rights. Sometimes, it can mean death. Throughout human history, many have fought for the rights we are afforded: the right to free speech; the right to a fair trial; the right to our basic needs being met.

Right now, many are risking their lives in circumstances fraught with danger. How does one face up to these risks as a changemaker? I discuss this and more with the CEO of Amnesty International UK, Sacha Deshmukh (Sacha Deshmukh Amnesty International Amnesty UK).

We also discuss how to be a leader of a global nonprofit, what social justice means, and how to build and support a team. I learned a lot from Sacha. I’m sure you will, too. Let’s keep learning.

I cannot stop watching this. It’s one of the most peculiar things I’ve ever seen, which given the venue, is really saying something. Get to the end (if you can).

I have instructed my lawyers to take the first steps in commencing legal proceedings against Chris Clarkson for a highly defamatory statement about me. I will not stand by and have my reputation traduced.
