Labour MP for Croydon West. Minister for Police and Crime.

[Sarah Jones MP @LabourSJ]

4/4 Nothing can make up for the pain that Levy has caused. We must keep fighting violence against women and girls and treating it as the national emergency that it is.

[Sarah Jones MP @LabourSJ]

1/4 My thoughts are with the families of Carmenza Valencia-Trujillo, Sheryl Wilkins and all those who suffered at the hands of Simon Levy. I also want to commend the survivor who bravely came forward and helped bring this monster to justice.

[Sarah Jones MP @LabourSJ]

3/4 It is right that investigations are taking place into how this could happen. Lessons must be learned and any failures identified so that they are never repeated.

[Lucy Powell MP @LucyMPowell]

Huge congratulations to @bevcraig our fantastic new Mayor of Greater Manchester. Thank you to our tireless activists who have worked so hard to help deliver this win.

I am thrilled to have been appointed as Parliamentary Private Secretary to the First Secretary of State, Louise Haigh.

I'm looking forward to supporting her in the Cabinet Office and working with my wonderful colleagues @alangemmell and @BeccyCooper4Lab.

In 2025-26, the police have shut down nearly 3,000 county lines gangs and made over 7,000 arrests.

This government will not let up in its mission to halve knife crime within a decade, break the grip of county lines gangs and make our communities safer.

Five things I’ve done in my first week 👇🏻

[Sarah Jones MP @LabourSJ]

@TfL Thanks

[Sarah Jones MP @LabourSJ]

Super annoying situation that just needs fixing.

This bus stop has been shut for over a year because the tree needs cutting back. Spoke to multiple elderly residents today who cannot get to the next bus stop.

@TfL @yourcroydon can we get together to get this fixed?

[Sarah Jones MP @LabourSJ]

@TfL Yes thats the one

[Sarah Jones MP @LabourSJ]

This government is shutting down county lines, bringing more gang leaders to justice and taking more deadly weapons off our streets than ever before.

Nearly 3,000 county lines programmes were closed in the 2025-26 program with over 7,000 arrested.

[Sarah Jones MP @LabourSJ]

Conversations with some of the brilliant people who joined @NDIronsMP and I at our Croydon Youth Jobs & Skills Fair.

With over 300 young people meeting employers including Google, PwC and the NHS, it was a lovely day. 🚀

[Sarah Jones MP @LabourSJ]

🍺 Great news for Croydon.

Labour is cutting business rates by 20% for pubs, clubs and live music venues.

[Sarah Jones MP @LabourSJ]

Neighbourhood policing is back.

New stats show neighbourhood officer numbers have grown by 22% in just one year, helping cut crime and make communities safer. And this number will continue to grow.

Putting officers where the public wants them: on our streets fighting crime.

[Sarah Jones MP @LabourSJ]

I had a call when I was in a local meeting in Croydon. I had to say ‘excuse me this might be the Prime Minister’ and it was!

[Bethany Dawson @bethanymrd]

📞 I hear Andy Burnham is calling MPs personally to offer them ministerial positions … which could be why this is all taking so long

[Sarah Jones MP @LabourSJ]

Delighted to be able to get on with the job as Policing Minister.

A huge honour working with extraordinary people.

And a massive job of reform to continue.

Tackling the epidemic of everyday crime, cutting knife crime and making our force fit to face the future.

We are protecting the children exploited by criminals by shutting down county lines drugs networks.

An estimated 840 stabbings have been prevented in our county lines crackdown.

[John Healey @JohnHealey_MP]

Today’s energy tax cut will give families some breathing room on bills, and provide some reassurance this winter.

This will be funded from the cancelled Digital ID scheme this year, helping to bring down inflation while supporting households in every postcode.
