Ambulances have reached patients faster in December than any time since Covid. The fall follows major new investment in emergency care – with an additional £450m announced through the 25/26 emergency care plan. #LabourOnYourSide

Crackdowns on lawyers, judges, prosecutors are part of a longstanding authoritarian playbook used globally to silence dissent. Jasmine Cameron, Fernanda Nicola, and Natalie Landau examine the responses in a half dozen countries and possible lessons for the US legal community:

Political pressures like those used to silence legal professionals and undermine rule of law in Europe and Eurasia echo autocratic patterns.

It is a fundamental principle for Islington Labour that the borough should welcome refugees - and that is why, under Labour control, our Council adopted ‘Borough of Sanctuary’ status in 2022. Labour on your side.

It has been the honor of my life to serve as Commissioner of BLS alongside the many dedicated civil servants tasked with measuring a vast and dynamic economy. It is vital and important work and I thank them for their service to this nation.

Emily Thornberry MP @emilythornberry.bsky.social · 29/07/2025
My statement on the recognition of Palestine ⤵️
The government’s decision to recognise a Palestinian state alongside France in September is a historic moment and great news. 

While we all wish that Israel would agree to end the hunger and suffering in Gaza, commit to a long-term sustainable peace including two states, and rule out annexation of the West Bank, there seems little possibility that the far-right Netanyahu government will agree to those terms. The UK will recognise Palestine in September. 

I have been calling on the government to take this step for months. In our major report published last week, my committee recommended that the UK and France - as co-signatories of the Sykes-Picot Agreement which carved up the Middle East - must recognise the state of Palestine while there is still a state to recognise. We must not underestimate the significance of this move.

Recognition is not an end by itself: it must be the first step to a long-term, two-state solution. First, UN-administered aid must flow in straightaway. Next, the government must urgently kickstart the political process. The Prime Minister, alongside our allies in Europe and the Gulf and Arab states, should present President Trump with a plan. Only he can sway Prime Minister Netanyahu. 

It is our responsibility to take a leadership role in bringing this conflict to an end. This move shows the UK is willing to be part of that effort.

Hints that medicines and artists' touring visas are very much on the menu of "common sense changes... that have very little to do with the vote in 2016".~AA

I and others have been calling for sanctions on these extremist Israeli ministers for the better part of a year. The government is finally doing the right thing. This must be a precursor to recognising a Palestinian state next week - not an alternative to it.

Today I was deeply honoured to receive a damehood from His Majesty The King. I wore a brooch in my hat belonging to my nan, who was a bright working class woman who had to stop working once she was married. If only she could see her granddaughter now.
