Labour is proving even more authoritarian than the Tories.

The decision to proscribe Palestine Action is an attack on dissent and democracy itself.

When a government criminalises protest, it exposes its own complicity.

Baroness Jones, "My Lords, I know that many on the Labour benches don't want to hear this"

"But this Labour government is more authoritarian than the last Conservative government"

*laughter in the chamber*

"Not only has the Labour government accepted all the draconian laws of the Conservative government, it actually continues to add to them"

"Now how many times in the previous 14 years the Labour benches spoke up against laws clamping down on protests, but now they're supporting them, and even defending and adding to them"

Leaked plans show the government wants to cut its affordable housing targets.

At a time when rents are soaring and families are struggling, that’s the last thing Britain needs.

We need homes people can actually afford — not just more empty Labour promises.

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

British.

How can this government be so heartless as to deny families the right to be together?

Allowing the right wing to blame asylum seekers for housing shortages or NHS pressures is cowardly.

Time to show some backbone — and some basic humanity.

Delighted my amendment to the Bus Services Bill was accepted.

This is the first step towards better buses for rural areas, cutting isolation, pollution and car dependency.

Progress that pays off in every way.

[The Green Party @TheGreenParty]

The Green surge is breaking limits! 😲

Together, we can make hope normal again! 💚
