@getprdone The scope was reduced after discussion with the Bill Office.

[APPG for Fair Elections @FairElectionsUK]

📣 Several members of the APPG are quoted in this article, which also talks about our work to secure a fair voting system.

💬 "The two things you want to see from an electoral system are that seats match votes, and that you can form stable governments. First past the post delivers neither of those things," says @alexsobel

For the first time in 30 years, rail fares are frozen in England 🧊❄️

We know good public transport is about much more than getting from A to B. It boosts our economy and connects our communities.

This fare freeze is a welcome step in getting transport back on track.

What a wonderful surprise from Britain after His Majesty's Christmas address -- a Ukrainian folk choir performing the world-famous Ukrainian melody “Shchedryk” (Carol of the Bells) with the Royal Opera Chorus.

Now that is what I call the global heritage of the thousand-year-old Ukrainian nation, preserved in its folk carols!

Thank you, Britain! 🇺🇦🤝🇬🇧

Carol of the Bells in Kyiv subway.

Voices of the Embassies of Germany, France, and the United Kingdom came together to perform Shchedryk in the Kyiv metro as a sign of solidarity with Ukraine.

Thankful to everyone who stands with us!

Visits to deepfake abuse sites have risen 3000% since 2019.

That’s thousands of ordinary women and girls being exploited online via non-consensual deepfakes.

Labour is tackling the issue at the source – making it illegal to supply the tools for creating explicit deepfakes.

Alongside other key measures, this bill will also increase protection from sexual harassment, introduce Equality Menopause Action Plans and strengthen rights for pregnant workers.

#EmploymentRights

[Alex Sobel MP for Leeds Central and Headingley @alexsobel]

This legislation has passed this week, despite shameful attempts from the Tories, Liberal Democrats, Green Party, and Reform to block this legislation and deny upgrades to rights to millions of workers across the UK.
