Robert Jenrick ordering the obliteration of cartoon murals at an asylum centre for unaccompanied children is, I think, one of the grimmest stories we’ve ever discussed. But there’s so much love & decency on display here that I’m very glad we did. https://t.co/BnEC4iG9rV
After Brendan Clarke Smith tried to shame me for thanking the Samaritans for their support at Glastonbury I want to say:
1. Mental health difficulties are nothing to be ashamed of. Talk.
2. The Samaritans are wonderful.
3. Get registered so you can vote those Tory scumbags out
Hello @thecarolemalone,
On TV just now, you said:
Brexit got us the fastest vaccine rollout
I replied:
Stop peddling that lie
You said:
What are you talking about?
So…
Here is the CEO of Govt’s own agency to explain why it’s a lie
So, please stop
@swoodexitbrexit It means the Labour motion of regret passes.
If the Fatal motion does not pass, the bill returns to commons unamended.
The Labour gambit is that the Tory rebels who threaten to vote the bill down if it is unamended now have to have the spine to do so.
I feel tonight, that we will see a swift erosion of that majority currently held by @Keir_Starmer
I predict a lot of movement to the Lib Dems - and maybe even the greens.
A hung parliament - or even another Tory government - just became far more possible.
I’M SO VERY SORRY EVERYONE. WE CAME TOGETHER in our tens of thousands to try & stop the Government using an unprecedented abuse of power to restrict the publics right to protest. Over 55,000 of you supported us. Tonight #labour @La@LabourLordsUK shamelessly ignored the publics outcry & backed the Government in its outrageous & unprecedented abuse of power by ABSTAINING on the fatal motion tabled by @GreenJennyJones. I have always supported @UKLabour but it’s refusal to join @LibDemLords & a small band of brave others across the House in backing tonights fatal motion was a disgrace. #labour has tonight supported the Government in restricting our right to protest. I promise I & many others did all we could to persuade #Labour to join us. Tonight they refused & sided with the Government - allowing it to restrict our right to protest & use an unprecedented abuse of power to get away with it. THIS IS NOT THE END. We shall continue the fight to protect democracy and will do it without #Labour if we must. I know each & every one of you will stand shoulder to shoulder with us

I’m at the House of Lords today with @GreenJennyJones to support her fatal motion along with @LibDemLords & the small brave band trying to protect our UK democracy. Will @UKLabour step up & support us or back the Government in its unprecedented abuse of power in restricting our right to protest by abstaining on tonight’s vote?
Dear @UKLabour
And @LabourLordsUK
And you @Keir_Starmer
This is a complete failure of opposition
And a complete disregard for all the people who are desperate for you to start behaving like the party of Govt we want you to be.
My god. @LabourLordsUK confirming tonight #Labour will support the Government in its unprecedented abuse of power to restrict the publics right to protest by abstaining on the fatal motion to stop them. Absolutely shocking. @UKLabour have tonight brought a feather duster to a knife fight with a government that cares nothing for rules & convention & assisted them in stripping back our right to protest. Absolutely disgraceful

In 2010 #Brighton Pavilion made history by electing me UK’s 1st Green MP & it’s been the honour of my life. My open letter to residents & friends explains why I’m not standing at next General Election. With love & gratitude, I hope I've done you proud 👇

These 4 billionaires who own 80% of UK print Media are being sued by Prince Harry for printing information obtained by phone hacking.
None of them pay tax, none of them live here, none of them contribute anything but hate and lies.
RT if you want them sued into bankruptcy.
