Round table on « Precarious & irregular work situations of migrant workers » on 2024 #EuropeanAntiTrafficking Day, chaired by Tamara Vonta (Slovenia, ⁦@ALDExPACE⁩) with participation of ⁦@KateOsamor⁩ (🇬🇧, @socpace) & ⁦@DianaStoicaRO⁩ (🇷🇴, ⁦@ALDExPACE⁩)

After years of chaos Britain is back with a voice on the world stage.

As Development Minister my mission is to help bring about a world free from poverty on a liveable planet.

At @ChathamHouse today, I set out the government’s new approach to development.https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/minister-for-development-speech-at-chatham-house

Very disappointed that @bt_uk is charging a local food pantry in my constituency excessive and unaffordable termination fees. This pantry provides vital support to families who rely on donations to avoid hunger. @bt_uk, this is unacceptable. Please reconsider.

I am both thrilled and honoured to be appointed the Second Church Estates Commissioner. 

The local church is a key cornerstone of our communities, playing a vital role in constituencies up and down the country. 

I look forward to working with commissioner’s the church and…

🆕Congratulations to rapporteur @KateOsamor (🇬🇧,@socpace) for the adoption of her report “Immigration, one of the answers to Europe's demographic aging”.

The Tories buried the report they commissioned on the roots of the Windrush scandal for two years.

Our message to the Windrush generation could not be clearer: we are grateful to you, and we will do right by you.

It's been another productive week handling casework for constituents who reached out with a variety of concerns. I'm always glad to offer assistance where I can and I'm pleased to report several positive outcomes this week.

Our duty as storytellers is to tell stories from all walks of life. Regardless of how hard or sad it is for ‘you’ to watch. Many of us walk a different path but we are loved, valued members of real families. Authentic representation in popular culture helps bring about &…

The police inspectorate has found that the @metpoliceuk is failing in almost all areas.

The Commissioner gave himself two years to turnaround the force and restore trust.

We're now almost two years into his term and we are still a long way away.

Under Elon Musk, platform X has become a space where racism, abuse, and disinformation are prevalent. The rise of the far-right underscores concerns about the impact of social media on public discourse and the responsibility of platform owners to regulate content effectively.

Excited for the Olympics beginning this evening and supporting Team GB over the next couple of weeks.
I'll especially be cheering on Desirèe Henry from Edmonton who's part of the Women's 4x100m relay team.
Her first race will be at 10:10am on 8th August so make sure to tune in.

Today, the work to set up GB Energy began.

One of the first priorities of GB Energy will be to massively scale up community energy. Energy owned by your community, powering your community, creating profit for your community.

A humanitarian crisis is unfolding in the north of Ethiopia, driven by drought, crop failure and continued insecurity in the aftermath of a brutal war.

Over the next few months, we’re going to see a rise in racist, misogynistic language. Why? Because the public targeting of Black women is a direct tactic to drive the right-wing’s agenda.
#Thread 🧵

I condemn the brutal crackdown on student-led protests by the Bangladeshi Government.

Large numbers of protestors have been killed or injured, while the internet and mobile services have been shut down.

The UK Government must make very clear that this is unacceptable.

Voters of colour were more than twice as likely to be turned away from polls than white voters.
We should be trying to encourage engagement rather than putting barriers in the way of voting.

Being a Member of Parliament is a great honour and should be treated as such.

MPs should not be exploiting their inside knowledge to provide advice for personal gain.

That is why Labour are banning MPs from providing paid public policy and current affairs advice.

What a day! A privilege, if a little surreal, to give my maiden speech in the House of Lords yesterday, with my family watching on. Thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way.

#Gaza
Heavy shooting from the Israeli Forces at a UN convoy heading to Gaza city.
While there are no casualties, our teams had to duck and take cover.

This took place yesterday. The teams were traveling in clearly marked UN armoured cars & wearing UN vests.

One vehicle…

It was a pleasure to be invited to Winchmore School today to take part in celebrations to mark the achievements of their Year 7 students as they complete their first year of secondary school.
Thank you very much for having me and congratulations to all those who received awards!

The UK joined 110+ Member States including the US, Germany, Jordan, Kuwait and Slovenia to make clear our commitment to @UNRWA and its life-saving work supporting generations of Palestinian refugees.

@UNRWA is irreplaceable and indispensable to the aid response in Gaza.

Today, I was officially sworn in once again, this time as the MP for Edmonton and Winchmore Hill. It's always a humbling experience, and I remain as committed as ever to serving our community. Thank you for your continued trust and support.

LABOUR AND CO-OPERATIVE HOLD IN EDMONTON AND WINCHMORE HILL! 🐝🌹

Congratulations to @KateOsamor on being elected as the @UKLabour & @CoopParty MP for Edmonton and Winchmore Hill! #GE2024

The British Bangladeshi community make such a vital contribution to Edmonton and Winchmore Hill.

Any attempt to scapegoat this community and whip up anti-migrant sentiment is completely wrong.

I will always stand with Bangladeshis against demonisation 🇧🇩

Throughout this election, Labour will continue to campaign on the issues that affect our residents. The cost-of-living crisis, the inability to access proper health services and ensuring every child has the chance for a good start. We will ensure Britain gets its future back.
