[Sam Tarry @SamTarry]

Thank you to Ilford, my hometown of forty years, the place that made me who I am.

Thank you to my staff and all my supporters in Ilford and across East London.

My work for the people who need a transformative Labour Government is not done.

Now to win a Labour Government. 🌹

[Melanie Ward MP @melanie_ward]

Funding illegal Israeli settlements is not charitable activity. It is extremist activity.

Working with Israeli human researchers, I found at least 32 UK charities who have sent £28 million to settlements in recent years.

There’s a likely taxpayer subsidy of at least £5 million

[Clive Lewis MP @labourlewis]

Today I raised an urgent question in parliament about the systemic failures in the water sector.

The constants disasters of privatised water are not the symptoms of market failure. This is the market working as designed: profits out, sewage in, cost of living up, security of supply, decimated. You can no more regulate privatised water companies than you can the tide.

So I asked the Minister for Water: how many more failures, how many more inquiries, how many more deaths - before the Government accepts these problems are systemic – and gives the public the option of taking their water back?

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

It was terrible Mr Vice President what happened. And lessons will be learned. But here’s a thought - maybe concentrate instead on why 44000 Americans died last year from gun related deaths, and what can be done about your dreadful disease before you start lecturing others

As an economist, former FT journalist and now Labour MP, l don’t think the bond markets have to fear a change of Labour leadership.

The biggest problem for gilt investors and MPs alike is inflation – & it remains our common enemy. My @FT op-ed 👇 (1/5)
