The Tories have just blocked my Bill to stop MPs taking money from oil and gas giants.

But that won't stop us. I'll be bringing it back in June.

It's time to stop oil and gas giants from polluting our politics.

Rishi Sunak and Liz Truss got big donations linked to fossil fuel firms for their Tory leadership bids.

One ex-Chancellor pocketed £1 MILLION+ from an oil company whilst an MP.

Today I'm bringing a Bill to ban MPs taking any funding from oil & gas firms. leftfootforward.org/2024/04/its-ti…

Congratulations Nath Brudenell - more than well deserved!

The Brudenell can’t be beaten!

It's shameful that our Government is effectively silent on the mass graves being found in Gaza.

It should be demanding a genuinely independent investigation that gets to the truth.

And it should be demanding that those responsible for war crimes are held to account.

This Friday I'm bringing a Parliamentary Bill to ban MPs taking a single penny from oil & gas companies.

These firms have driven up your energy bills and brought us to the edge of climate catastrophe.

Yet some MPs have pocketed vast sums of money from them.

It must be stopped.

Hospices provide essential end-of-life care and many of us have been touched by the wonderful care they give.

But they face a funding crisis.

This week I paid tribute to St Gemma's Hospice in Leeds and called on the Government to ensure all hospices have the funding they need.

The same fossil fuel firms behind record energy bills have brought us to the cliff edge of climate catastrophe.

This week I'm bringing a Bill to stop MPs taking any financial donations from oil and gas firms.

It's time to kick oil money out of politics.

Great that a Labour Government will bring rail back into public ownership.

Privatised rail companies have hiked prices while delivering worse and worse services.

It's time to put the public before the profits of rip-off rail companies.

Today Ministers refused to turn up to the Committee discussing arms exports to Israel.

And when they do turn up in Parliament, they mislead MPs about arms sales to Israel and push the false claim that Britain has one of the most robust arms controls licence systems in the world.

Outrageous that Ministers failed to show up to our committee today.

It’s completely disrespectful of our parliamentary democracy.

They should be engaging with us & answering our questions on the important issues concerning the licensing of UK arms exports, not avoiding them.

Super-rich landlords and property firms help bankroll the Tories

Today they've got their payback.

The Tories have tabled more than 200 amendments that have gutted the Renters Reform Bill that's in Parliament today.

The whole thing stinks.

People across East Leeds raise with me their difficulty in getting access to a dentist.

Across the country, we're hearing horrific stories of people having to pull out their own teeth.

In Parliament I called on the Government to back the The Mirror Dentists For All campaign.

It is clear from the evidence that has come out from the High Court case today into UK arms sales to Israel that our Government has repeatedly misled Parliament.

End arms sales to Israel now!

It’s been a year. Diane should be brought back into the Parliamentary Labour Party.

Enough is enough. Disabled people are not the problem.

Last week the Prime Minister made a speech about so-called 'sicknote culture'. He also proposed major changes to disability benefits.

Today we're launching a petition in response to this full-on assault of disabled people.

The same fossil fuel firms behind record energy bills have brought us to the cliff edge of climate catastrophe.

This week I'm bringing a Bill to stop MPs taking any financial donations from oil and gas firms.

It's time to kick oil money out of politics.

NHS waiting lists are up threefold since the Tories came to power.

Rather than taking responsibility, the Tories have tried to blame NHS staff and now the sick and disabled.

Instead the Tories should be going after the tax dodgers to raise funds to help solve the NHS crisis.

Today at the High Court, I joined representatives of the legal team taking the UK Government to court over arms exports to Israel.

Great to hear that @glan_law & Palestinian rights group @alhaq have now been granted a full judicial review hearing at the High Court!

The Tories have failed – it’s time for change. Don’t forget to post your postal vote today!

Our latest issue, ‘Civil War Without Guns,’ is out soon.

Arthur Scargill, Seumas Milne, David Peace and more explore the social fabric that fought and sustained the miners’ strike, what we lost in defeat, and how we rebuild.
