I am appalled by the vile racist attacks on my independent colleagues.
Ayoub Khan has been subject to disgusting smears by MPs and journalists, who have wilfully misrepresented his views in order to stoke anger and division.
Journalists have called for Zarah Sultana to be deported — a despicable racist attack on an elected Member of Parliament.
The decision to prohibit away supporters from attending a match against Aston Villa was made through the lens of public safety. That is what most people would hope and expect, and explains why this decision has public support.
My independent colleagues in parliament — Ayoub, Zarah, Iqbal, Shockat and Adnan — diligently represent people of all faiths and none in their communities.
We believe in the human rights of all — and we will never stop campaigning for a more equal, peaceful world.
Britain makes 15% of every F-35 and flew 600+ spy missions around Gaza from RAF Akrotiri.
UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham’s government says a public inquiry is not necessary. 20,000 people said otherwise in four days.
11,000 yesterday. 18,000 today.
The UK Labour government says a public inquiry into Britain’s role in Gaza is not necessary. The public disagrees.

@BrynHGriffiths Never, never, never.
We weren’t welcome then, we aren’t welcome now.
This is an insane level of #stockholmsyndrone on display
P.S Has your shiny new leader acknowledged a genocide we are complicit in yet?
Seven years ago, Lula was in prison serving an unjust conviction.
Today, he is the re-elected president of Brazil.
In 2018, he said “there is no point in trying to end my ideas, they are already lingering in the air”.
Lula’s ideas don't just linger. They live!
Viva Lula!
Trump and the far right can be beaten. Brazil proved it
Congratulations to Lula on winning a record fourth term. A victory for Brazil’s working class, hope for the international left and a chance to push further against poverty and inequality
Solidarity from Britain. Viva Lula.
Latest Nowcast shows Your Party Leader @jeremycorbyn retaining his seat together will all four Independent Alliance MPs.
Also gains for YP/Indys in Bradford West and Ilford North where @LeanneMohamad nearly defeated @wesstreeting at the last General Election.
@thisisyourparty
Thank you to all who came to our first @thisisyourparty North Oxon Branch social in Chipping Norton this afternoon, with members from down the road, Bicester, Banbury and as far away as Faringdon attending.
What a lovely start to our timetable.
Four things the UK Labour government won’t put to a public inquiry: arms sent to Israel, RAF bases used, what RAF spy flights collected, and its legal advice on Israel’s Gaza genocide
10,000 forces a reply. 100,000 can secure a parliamentary debate

Britain just had its hottest summer on record. The planet is on fire.
Shell made 9.8 billion dollars in three months of the Iran war.
Andy Burnham’s answer is to give Shell Jackdaw, another North Sea gas field.
@jnoley I’m a psychotherapist & a colleague sent me this episode to watch.
The headline on the message said “Happening in real time on national TV.”
I hope every person caught in a coercive control relationship is watching this and seeing the parallels.
@ITV have a duty of care here.
Your Party leader Jeremy Corbyn’s request for a public inquiry into British complicity in Gaza, is turned down by Burnham-he really is more of the same isn’t he.
He said he was a conservative because of taxes, her response:
“My mum wears a burka. You worry about your taxes; that comes from privilege. I worry about whether my mum comes home that night.”
She really cooked here.
On my way into Your Party’s Anti Racism event in Birmingham today. We want Your Party to be at the forefront of fighting back against the far right’s toxic racist scapegoating agenda.
@thisisyourparty#AntiracismInAction event kicks off in Birmingham.
Members from across the 3 nations here to strategise our fightback against the rising tide of the far-right.

Andy Burnham is funding care for the old by making the old poorer, in a country where 2.8 million pensioners live below the minimum income standard and 157 billionaires live above every standard.
Jeremy Corbyn is right.
