32 “charities” in England & Wales appear to have donated £28m+ to Israeli settlements.
Instead of allowing these organisations to fund extremism, violence and ethnic cleansing, they should be investigated and stripped of charitable status.

British activists aboard the @gbsumudflotilla have been subjected to severe mistreatment by Israeli authorities, cheered on by senior government figures.
I asked the Foreign Secretary what action the government will take to stand up for its citizens.
Last night, I joined @PSCUpdates protesters outside Downing Street to stand with the people of Palestine, Lebanon and Iran.
The government must do everything in its power to pressure the US and Israel to end their wars of aggression in the Middle East.
Racist pogroms are taking place in #Belfast. The far right have mobilised in other cities.
We have to stop them weaponising the horrific knife attack to whip up racist violence. Read our statement ⬇️

As the far right responds to individual crimes with calls for collective punishment: from the removal of human rights to mass deportations and street violence against ethnic minority communities, we must keep speaking out and challenging their poison.
What happened last night in Belfast can only be described as a pogrom, incited by far right agitators.
The targeted arson and vandalism of homes and businesses belonging to ethnic minority people will have struck fear into communities across the UK.
Monday night’s brutal knife attack rightly drew universal censure.
We are now seeing a pattern of coordinated far right activists hijacking tragic and emotive incidents to incite violence against migrants and minoritised communities.
Funding the NHS while increasing the role of the private sector is like trying to fill a bucket of water while drilling holes in the bucket.
It is what successive governments have done and it is patients who suffer.

I've signed this letter urging the government to ban trade with illegal Israeli settlements.
Such a ban is long overdue. Letting trade continue amid an ongoing genocide and escalating violence is inexcusable.
We also need a comprehensive sanctions regime against Israel.
Together with almost 140 fellow Labour MPs, I have written to the Foreign Secretary to call for a ban on trade with illegal Israeli settlements. Our group includes every Labour select committee chair.
It’s time to be clear that settlements have no viable economic future

The latest EHRC guidance will only further harm and marginalise trans people.
Trans people deserve to live with the dignity, freedom and safety to fully participate in public life.
I signed EDM 240 this week, calling for this guidance to be rejected 👇🏾

Labour cannot defeat Reform by chasing Reform.
We have to return to the values we were founded on: standing up for working people, tackling inequality and injustice, investing in public services, and improving living standards.
If we get this wrong, the danger of Farage and his Trump-style politics entering Downing Street is real.

Of the 949 people detained in 2024's racist riots, 1 in 5 have been subsequently reported for domestic abuse.
These thugs aren't protecting anyone, let alone women.
And the racist narratives they spin actively undermine efforts to tackle violence against women and girls.
Congratulations to Crystal Palace, Conference League Champions 🏆
A massive moment for the club, the fans and our community, doing South London proud on the international stage 🦅❤️💙

Awful news. Last Friday morning, an elderly man died after being hit by an HGV on Clapham High Street.
With investigations ongoing, anyone with relevant information or dashcam footage is asked to contact police on 101, quoting CAD2859/22MAY26.

Bell Ribeiro-Addy, MP for Clapham and Brixton Hill, brought a very powerful address to Account Day, cutting through the narrative that places Africa at the receiving end of a problem it did not create.
TRACE. ACCOUNT. REBUILD.
