I know people feel raw about this and I do understand. I’d have voted for a workable bill. But having spoken on a number of occasions on palliative care and social care it’s pretty galling to be accused of bad faith

Today I voted against the Terminally Ill Adults (end of life) bill. Not because I oppose the principle but because the bill isn’t safe. I believe palliative care isn’t good enough and not enough has been done to guard against cohesion youtu.be/Jcf6h0PMsN0?...

I was proud to be in parliament to hear the foreign secretary announce comprehensive sanctions on illegal Israeli settlements. Alongside France and Canada. I spoke to push the foreign secretary on calling out settler violence and the collusion of the Israeli army in it.

Following a motion originally proposed by our Labour Councillors, the Reform Leader of Calderdale Council recently contacted me about Yorkshire Water’s performance. I am very happy to work with any good faith attempt to help the people of Calderdale and hold our water companies to account.

Today I am speaking at Woman’s Aid conference. One area of work I’m most proud of is ending the presumption, in family courts, that contact with an abuser is beneficial to a child. A policy directly responsible for the death of 67 children. I asked the minister about it recently

Andrew Gwynne was very kind when my brother passed away. I wouldn’t seek for a second to justify or defend his WhatsApps. But it’s honestly quite sad that the end of a 20 year parliamentary career due to ill health is being viewed through the lens of Labour psychodrama.

I was proud to add my name to this call for a ban on social media for under 16s. The evidence is becoming increasingly clear that the pressure and emotional toll that social media is having a negative impact on our young people and we should do what we can to protect them from that.

I have to say that running for the leadership of a party then going to join a different one when you don’t get your own way really is a shoddy way to behave. I’ve been involved in the Labour party for 26 years now, I can’t imagine treating the activists I’ve worked with with such little respect.

Have started training for the London Marathon this week. While trying to add 50m at the end of my run to make it 16k yesterday I ran onto some cobbles and absolutely stacked it on what turned out to be sheet ice. I love running but there is no joy on days like that.

Before Christmas I had health secretary @wesstreeting.bsky.social in front of the health and social care select committee where we discussed palliative care. This answer on the safety of the Terminally ill adults end of life bill was revealing and confirms many of the concerns I still have.

She’s right. She *deliberately* hacked into Harriet Harman’s website, whereas Rachel Reeves is accused of obtaining a license late by accident. I assume that’s what she means, given Badenoch is widely known for her thoughtfulness and her self-awareness.

To ask questions in parliament MPs submit written questions to a ballot, or stand up & sit down (bob) on a question asked by someone else. The written question is like a starter so ministers knows the subject. My success ratio in the ballot is 8 for 169. Totally logical system🙄

We won’t reach net zero without doing more to use less energy. And that includes insulating our homes. Yesterday a national audit office report showed that 98% of homes insulated under the last government were faulty. I asked the minister if this government will do better!

Genuine question. How do we best respond to misinformation in a public roll? Be it antivaxers, politically motivated bad faith reporting on the left or right, or people acting in bad faith on local forums. Do we give it more power by engaging with it, how do we distinguish the ones to reply to?
