[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

The Prime Minister was unable to answer a simple question today about why a disabled person who needs help to eat, wash and manage toilet needs could no longer get PIP under his proposals.

The Government must drop this cruel proposal or it’ll face the mother of all rebellions.

Solidarity with our comrades at @UniteLondonEast! ✊

[Leanne Mohamad @LeanneMohamad]

Over a quarter of a million people marched in London today at the 20th National Demonstration, urging the British Government to stop arming Israel. A year has passed, yet daily atrocities in Gaza, Lebanon, and the West Bank continue. We will keep marching until justice prevails.

[Humza Yousaf @HumzaYousaf]

Condemning the actions of the Netanyahu Government is not anti-Semitic.

Those on rallies up and down the country aren't pro-Arab, or simply pro-Palestinian, but pro-humanity.

When tens of thousands of children are being slaughtered, how can you justify silence and inaction?

[Child Poverty Action Group @CPAGUK]

*NEW*

More than 10,000 children have been pulled into poverty by the two-child limit since the election.

The government should scrap it at the Budget.

[Margaret Mullane MP @Margaret4DR]

I’ve signed EDM150 on Football ticket prices. Tickets for the 24/25 season have been increased above inflation across @premierleague pricing out many fans.

Supporters should be involved in pricing policy, and concessionary rates must be protected. https://t.co/1sEigijt0D

📢 Unite’s retired members are furious and are making their voice heard outside Westminster today. #WinterFuelAllowance @UniteEconomy

[Zarah Sultana MP @zarahsultana]

When people say there's no money to scrap the two-child benefit cap, they're not looking in the right places.

Me on why we need abolish this cruel Tory policy and immediately lift 300,000 kids out of poverty:

[Laura Pidcock @LauraPidcock]

The two child limit to Universal Credit is pernicious & cruel. It is the bare *minimum* to vote for its abolition. Millions of children in crushing poverty won’t care less about warm words whilst the cupboards are bare. It should be sobering to everyone that the cap remains.

[Labour East @EofELabour]

📸 Introducing (most!) of our Labour East Parliamentary Labour Party team in Westminster Hall yesterday! The work of change starts now.

[ASLEF @ASLEFunion]

General Secretary @MickWhelanASLEF met with @LouHaigh and @LordPeterHendy this morning. We're pleased to be resetting our relationship with the DfT.

We discussed plans to resolve our long-running dispute and move forward on our shared priorities to take the railway forward.

[Baroness Mary Bousted @MaryWBousted]

This is really inspirational @bphillipsonMP . And, goodness me, we have waited so long to be inspired!

[Barking&Dagenham TUC @BDHTUC]

@ThurrockJen @AngelaRayner It certainly is.

[Barking&Dagenham TUC @BDHTUC]
