At Labour conference, I made sure to visit the organisations and campaigns that constituents had asked me to meet. Great to hear about their work and raise local concerns.

A busy few days at Labour Party Conference, with the opportunity to speak on some of the issues I care most about! 🌹🧵

Keir Starmer is a fundamentally good man who rebuilt the Labour Party when it was facing political catastrophe. More from me on today’s announcement from the Prime Minister 👇

It’s been ten years since our friend, Jo Cox was murdered by a far right extremist. Jo was a champion of community, tolerance and mutual respect. The values she believed in continue to inspire me, and people across the country to seek unity over division and peace over hatred.

This morning, the Leeds Sikh Community held a vigil for Henry Nowak in Chapel Allerton. I was touched by the warmth and kindness of all those who attended to pay their respects to Henry following his murder. Henry will be remembered and we must redouble our efforts to end knife violence.

“The escalation in Azad Kashmir is deeply worrying and I know that many North East Leeds residents will be worried about loved ones in the region. 

Peaceful protest must never be met with internet blackouts, arbitrary arrests and violence. 

This escalation is a step towards further instability, when peace must be the priority. Innocent people in Jammu and Kashmir deserve to live free from the threat of violence.

I have tabled a parliamentary question to urge Foreign Ministers to speak urgently with their Pakistani counterpart and call for an end to the violence.”

Henry Nowak's murder was an unforgivable tragedy. Vickrum Digwa lied to the Police and it's right that he has been sentenced to life imprisonment for this evil crime.

Today, on Yom HaShoah, we commemorate the six million Jews who were murdered during the Holocaust. I’m thinking of the Leeds Jewish Community and members of my own family who suffered so much during this vile period in history. We must confront antisemitism in all its forms.

A privilege to meet with Ukrainian MPs in parliament with the British Group Inter Parliamentary Union. I’m honoured to lead a group of MPs who are committed to supporting Ukraine against Russian aggression. The 🇺🇦 flag was flown over Downing Street for the visit. 🇬🇧 will always stand with Ukraine.

I’m grateful to Wes Streeting for listening to bereaved families from Leeds and confirming that Donna Ockenden will chair the Leeds maternity investigation. When I raised this with the Health Secretary in Parliament, he committed to doing everything he can to ensure families get answers. 1/2

Labour promised that we would bring energy bills down. That’s exactly what’s happening from April, when energy bills are going to be reduced by £117. This is because of the decisions made at the last Budget. Read more from the BBC 👇

Brexit Britain is finished. With Labour, Britain is reclaiming its place in the world, fuelled by a reset of our relationship with our European partners. The Prime Minister is right. There is no British security without Europe and there is no European security without Britain.

On Holocaust Memorial Day, we remember the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust and all victims of the Nazis including members of my own family. I signed the Holocaust Educational Trust’s Book of Commitment. Antisemitism is a very real threat and we must challenge it wherever it occurs.

Today we lost a wonderful person, a woman who fought for social justice all her life, a mother who was bringing up four lovely children, a daughter who made her parents proud. I have always been grateful to call Mahalia France-Mir my friend.

Labour will deliver Northern Powerhouse Rail 🚆 This transformational plan means quicker connections across the North — boosting jobs, growth and cutting carbon. After a decade of Tory cuts and chaos, only Labour has the vision and backbone to get it done.

Another productive advice surgery at the Reginald Centre in Chapeltown. I’m grateful to the North East Leeds residents who came to see me. Securing positive outcomes for local residents is my top priority and I have assisted hundreds of constituents over the last year.

🚲 Pleased to support the launch of LNER Beryl Bikes in Leeds. More e-bikes and bays make it simpler for people to cut congestion and pollution, and enjoy our brilliant city. The bikes are parked outside Leeds Train Station and across the city.

Russia’s strike on the @britishcouncil.bsky.social in Kyiv is an attack on education, culture, and international cooperation. As Chair of the APPG British Council & Soft Power, I condemn this act of aggression and welcome the Government’s swift decision to summon Russia’s ambassador.

I have signed the reasoned amendment. Our welfare system needs reform. But if we are to get this right, we cannot make it more difficult for those who are living with disabilities to get the support they need. I cannot vote to make North East Leeds residents worse off.

NEW: This Labour Government has announced anyone on means-tested benefits will get £150 off their energy bills this winter, as it expands the Warm Homes Discount. This will directly support many households in North East Leeds at a difficult time for families and communities.

JUST ANNOUNCED: This Labour Government is extending free school meals to 500,000 more children. All those on Universal Credit will be eligible. This will save families around £500 per year and lift 100,000 children out of poverty. Great news for families in North East Leeds!
