In Parliament today, I told the Foreign Secretary that we need more than the limited action announced today: * An end to all arms sales to Israel * ⁠Proper economic sanctions * ⁠A ban on all illegal settlement goods Anything less isn’t sufficient.

Proud to stand with the Disability Benefits Consortium against devastating cuts that would push thousands into poverty and strip away dignity.

Happy to see Bradford leading the way in health innovation—from pioneering local care to ground-breaking research. I'll keep pushing for investment that puts prevention, community services and better outcomes at the heart of our NHS.

Glad to see water companies finally being held to account for polluting our rivers and waterways. It was wrong that they were allowed to run amok under the last Tory Government while our environment paid the price. šŸ”— bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Fantastic to join the Bowling Old Lane Cricket club recently, based in the heart of the community. We had a great chat about their upcoming games, and much-needed investment into grassroots sports.

No child should grow up in poverty. It’s time to scrap the two-child limit and make sure every child has the support they need to thrive.

After 14 years of Tory failure, it’s long past time to scrap the two-child cap and end a policy that pushes children into poverty. thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/news/25195392.…

It is a disgraceful violation of international law that Israel is expanding its illegal settlements in the West Bank - and all while continuing its war crimes in Gaza. The UK must condemn these actions and impose widespread sanctions to hold Israel accountable.

Everyone deserves a safe, decent place to call home. We need urgent investment in social housing — from fixing existing stock to building high-quality new homes. I’ll keep pushing for action and funding to tackle this crisis. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

I'm delighted to see over Ā£8.6 million invested in vital upgrades at St Luke’s and Bradford Royal Infirmary. After years of Tory neglect, this is a welcome step forward. I’ll keep pushing for the funding our NHS and Bradford deserve.

Over half of children in Bradford East live in poverty. That is a national disgrace. We must scrap the two-child cap, invest in families, and fund change through a 2% wealth tax. thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/news/25208033.…

I back Jeremy Corbyn's Bill for an independent inquiry into the UK role in Israel's war on Gaza. I was a signatory to Jeremy's letter to the Prime Minister on this There now may be a vote on it today. I'm out of the country but would've voted for it and will do in future votes.

Good to see more children becoming eligible for free school meals - no child should start the day hungry. But we must go further: scrap the two-child benefit cap and introduce a 2% wealth tax to help end child poverty and fund our public services.

Great to see Ā£2.1 billion heading to Bradford and West Yorkshire to help deliver a new tram line and build a new bus station. This is major step in the right direction. I’ll keep pushing for the investment our region deserves.

Delighted to announce solar panels are being installed at Feversham Primary Academy, saving Ā£13,000 a year. Backed by Great British Energy, that’s money that can go back into creating better opportunities for our children, while cutting emissions and building a greener future.

I've written to the Foreign Secretary demanding urgent action to protect the crew and passengers of the UK-flagged Madleen, unlawfully seized by Israel. We must end arms sales and impose sanctions on Israel for its continued violations of international law.

Good to see the Government reverse course so that 75% of pensioners will now receive vital winter fuel support. But it must not stop here - I’m pressing Ministers to rule out any further cuts and ensure support reaches everyone who needs it.
