Working on the Ukraine Recovery Conference parliamentary agenda has been a real highlight of my professional career to date. Ukraine’s democracy remains strong in the face of invasion - its a privilege to support the Rada as we look towards post-conflict Ukraine. #URC2023
Grateful to @LordSpeaker for welcoming @ua_parliament delegates led by Deputy Speaker @OlekKorn for #URC2023 parliamentary side-event with @WFD_Democracy & #Ukraine APPG. A prime example of close interparliamentary relations between 🇬🇧 & 🇺🇦 working together on Ukraine's recovery.
NEW: With less than two weeks to go until #Paraguay's 🇵🇾 General #Election, the contest between Santiago Peña (#Colorado) & Efrain Alegre (#PLRA) is entering its final stretch.

The Taliban’s hatred of women extends beyond the living. It is now mandatory for store owners to cover the faces of mannequins.
These dystopian images are a sign of how much worse life is going to become for Afghan women if the world doesn’t stand with them.

The past 3 years I have volunteered with @bowfoodbank and @BethnalFoodbank, witnessing the emergency food aid service they provide in Tower Hamlets, where 56% children live in poverty (@jrf_uk). Put plainly, the cost of living crisis has put the org under enormous pressure. (1/2)
