Happy Days !

This is quite sickening. You should not be rewarded for cheerleading the wrecking of our economy and giving us a mortgage crisis. It makes a mockery of the system and mush be blocked by Rishi Sunak pronto.

What an inspiration - with Catherine Atkinson for Derby North at the Ass'n of Ukrainians Centre in Derby - a home from home for Ukrainians for 65 years and now a lifeline for so many.

NEW: Interest rates up to 4.25%.

This will be a cause of huge concern for many.

Families are already dealing with a Tory mortgage penalty and soaring food prices.

Labour will bring the sound economic management urgently needed to stabilise the economy.

The simple truth is this: after 13 years of Tory government, crime is out of control and working people are paying the price.

I've worked in justice my whole life and my Labour government's mission will be to make Britain's streets safe.

Wishing everyone in Tottenham and beyond a Ramadan Mubarak.

Peace and happiness to everyone observing this blessed month.

This is an extremely damaging decision. Settlements in the Occupied West Bank are illegal and undermine the viability of a two state solution.

The UK must stand firm against any steps towards annexation and press Israel's government to change course.

Rishi Sunak is too weak and the Tories are too divided to govern in the national interest.

They are stuck fighting their own civil wars about the deal they negotiated, subjecting the country to their endless internal soap opera.

Only Labour can move our country forwards.

Baroness Casey’s important report follows what Sir William MacPherson found in 1999 and what I found in 2017.

The Home Secretary must take action to address these failings. Otherwise racism, sexism and homophobia will continue to fester in the Met.

Labour completely condemns the unacceptable disorder and vandalism at the Indian High Commission today.

This situation needs calm.

Ministers should engage with Indian authorities so UK families who can’t reach their relatives in the Punjab regain contact as soon as possible.

Last night’s agreement between Kosovo and Serbia is welcome.

We hope this will mark a turning point in the normalization of relations.

Labour will push for all countries to recognise Kosovo and for its full integration into the international community.

Today, I’m remembering my mum, who was an inspiration to me growing up.

Happy Mother’s Day.

Returning from Washington DC, it’s clear Biden’s Democrats and The Labour Party share a common outlook on foreign policy.

In government, Labour will reconnect Britain and work closely with America in this divided world.

Great to meet with my friend Nancy Pelosi to talk the Northern Ireland Protocol, Ukraine, China and so much more.

If both The Labour Party⁩ and the Democrats win our elections in 2024, together we can seize a progressive moment on the world stage.

This is an historic step by the ICC.

President Putin is now a wanted man, facing charges of war crimes. This should send a clear message to all his cronies in Russia- you will and must face justice for your barbaric war in Ukraine.

With a General Election in the UK and a Presidential Election in the US, 2024 can be a real progressive moment on both sides of the Atlantic.

The Conservative Gov has slashed active travel funding, despite their own target of 50% of all journeys to be walked/cycled in towns by 2030.

Trains services have been slashed & buses are in disarray. Cuts to funding simply not good enough. My letter to Transport Sec here ⬇️

The earthquakes in Türkiye and Syria have had devastating consequences.

Today, I was honoured to visit a memorial for the victims of the earthquakes and say thank you to members at the Alevi Centre in Haringey who have worked tirelessly to support relief efforts.
