The people developing super-intelligent AI have warned it could kill us all. We can’t leave the future of humanity in the hands of Trump or the tech billionaires. We need a global treaty to press pause before it’s too late.

A big step forward for disabled young people and their carers today: the House of Lords passed our law to make it easier for them to access their Child Trust Funds. This has been a long battle for me and many parents. I really hope Labour MPs don’t overturn our amendment.

I’ve been hearing from farmers about the devastating impact of bluetongue on top of this year’s droughts. We are calling on the government to set up an urgent taskforce, speed up vaccines, and support British farmers to feed our nation.

In my recent interviews I boasted about having claimed "zero personal expenses". Which is not surprising when you consider that there is no such thing as 'personal expenses' for MPs, so nobody has claimed any. But I have claimed over £150k in office expenses.
