former MP. [email protected] Bluesky: @ r.t/“likes” are not endorsements they‘re highlighted views (sometimes disagreeable).

[Andrea Egan UNISON General Secretary @AndreaEganGS]

Every penny that goes to the military is money that could have gone to our public services.

From my speech at RMT's AGM.

💚 Huge congratulations to Nadia on a fantastic Goldsmid, Brighton and Hove, by election victory!

The last time the Greens won this ward in a by election, in 2009, we went on to win the council and elect a Green MP.

That’s our ambition again. Onwards! 🌻

[Prem Sikka @premnsikka]

Meet James Purnell. Andy Burnham's chief of staff.

He supported Iraq invasion; ex chair of Labour Friends of Israel; said that Winter Fuel Allowance and free bus passes should not be sacred; supported PFI, lie-detector tests for benefit claimants.

Next?

The devil will be in the detail, and the scrutiny process.

I’m delighted, after years of cross party campaigning, the Gov has published a Conversion Therapy Bill and will move to make this abuse illegal.

After I drafted a Backbench Bill on this and worked alongside campaigners, it’s wonderful to see this long overdue step being taken.

[Paul Brand @PaulBrandITV]

NEW: The govt has finally published a draft bill banning ‘conversion therapy’.

It’s 8 years since Theresa May first promised a ban, following investigations by @itvnews.

But there will be intense debate about how it applies to trans people and religious practices.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

This is absolutely insane.

The suffragettes used far more extreme tactics than Palestine Action.

They planted bombs, burned down private homes and smashed up art galleries.

They killed five people!

Her outrageous judgement is based on absurd historical ignorance.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Absolutely astonishing that there has been a two day racist pogrom in Northern Ireland and @Keir_Starmer hasn’t called a COBRA meeting.

QWHITE revealing!

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

Henry's brutal murder and the failures of the police have been appalling.

His father's words are vital: "We don't want Henry's murder to be used to create further hatred, division or tension."

[Nilton Rodrigues 🏳️‍🌈 @GreenPrtyNilton]

Remember when Lambeth Labour suspended @Martin_Abrams for defying the whip on Gaza?

He’s just been elected Leader of Lambeth Council….for the Greens.

Extraordinary.

[Aydin Dikerdem @AydinDikerdem]

At the height of the genocide, the government invited the head of the Israeli Airforce - General Tomer Bar - to an air show in Gloucestershire. At the time, 10 children a day were losing one or both limbs in Gaza due to Israeli air strikes.

[Oxford Union @OxfordUnion]

A statement from the President, Arwa Elrayess:

[Lewis Goodall @lewis_goodall]

This is counter-productive, authoritarian and chilling. The British state should not be in the business of banning commentators and journalists from entering the country, without compelling reason. Finding their views objectionable is nowhere near enough.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Deeply alarming.

Josh Simons is a Morgan McSweeney sidekick.

He ran Labour Together - whose purpose was to crush the left.

There he led a smear campaign against journalists investigating its funding.

Ignore this now, regret it later!

[Aaron Bastani @AaronBastani]

London MP >

Leaves after Corbyn Labour does well in 2018 >

High paid fake job with London Mayor >

Returns to parliament via another seat after Starmer purged dissidents >

Gets transport job after Haigh spiked by internal rivals >

The ultimate uniparty MP?

[Chris Williams @chrisw100]

🔴Labour mess up Birmingham
🔴Labour stand for election in Birmingham
🔴Labour then walk away from cleaning up their mess when the opportunity is there.

Responsible politics?!

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

Today marks Nakba Day, an annual day of remembrance to commemorate the expulsion of more than 700,000 Palestinians between 1947 and 1949 during the creation of the State of Israel and the year that followed.

Inea is a New Yorker and a Nakba survivor. She shared her story with us — one of home, tradition and memory over generations.

[Hasan Patel @CorbynistaTeen]

5 yrs ago I was the youngest elected rep on any National Labour Party body as Young Labour's under-18 officer. I was harassed, and faced disciplinary action twice for stressing youth disillusionment with Labour.

Labour just got demolished in my hometown. Poetic justice. 💚

[Lewes District Green Party @LewesGreenParty]

💚💚💚 Charlotte, Wendy & Johnny have been elected for Chailey, Lewes and Ringmer and Lewes Bridge 🎉🎉🎉 Thank you to all our wonderful volunteers ❤️

We will continue to build on these successes and build a movement of hope that will spread across Sussex 💚 WATCH THIS SPACE 💚

[Faiza Shaheen @faizashaheen]

OMG I was at Waltham Forest count when Greens took the council
Went from 0 to 31 councillors
Can’t believe it! Incredible!
Congrats to all new councillors and @ZackPolanski

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

I've always admired the work of the British Red Cross.

From their work to support refugees to their work supporting people in Gaza & conflict zones around the world.
