Stephen Doughty is MP for Cardiff South and Penarth

Deeply sad news.

Dame Deborah James’ charity work was truly inspirational — even in the most challenging moments, she continued to raise awareness about bowel cancer and impacted so many people’s lives.

Our thoughts are with her family and friends at this difficult time. https://twitter.com/bbcnews/status/1541874701886160898

Our country urgently needs a change in direction.

Great to sit down with @REWearmouth today to discuss Labour’s serious plan to turn it around.

Thriving industries. World class public services. Strong communities.

Labour will re-energise Britain.

This is a historic decision which will greatly strengthen the NATO alliance and make all of us more safe.

Congratulations to friends @Haavisto and @AnnLinde who have helped lead this process. https://twitter.com/SkyNews/status/1541852496162951170

Hi huns! Letting you know that over the Summer you can hear me twice a week on the @BBCRadioWales

As well as my Thursday night show from 7PM, I’ll be looking after the Saturday night show for Bethan from 7:30PM until Sept - tune in 💛

Labour’s commitment to NATO is unshakable. As the Madrid Summit for NATO’s next Strategic Concept begins today, we need this 10 year plan to spell out how the Alliance will respond to increasing threats to our security – a thread 👇

#OnThisDay in 1969, LGBT+ people resisted a police raid at the Stonewall Inn in New York, sparking the #Pride movement.

It's so important we celebrate LGBT+ history in this country too.

My thanks to Joseph Galliano for showing me around the excellent @QueerBritain museum.

Instead of trying to resolve the rail dispute, the Tories are using it as another excuse to attack trade unions. Check out @justinmadders piece for @LabourList

'Hypocrisy is corrosive to our foreign policy', David Lammy tells Liz Truss – video https://www.theguardian.com/politics/video/2022/jun/27/hypocrisy-is-corrosive-to-our-foreign-policy-david-lammy-tells-liz-truss-video?utm_term=Autofeed&CMP=twt_gu&utm_medium&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1656356957

Just now Theresa May gave this devastating assessment of the NI Protocol Bill:

'I asked myself three questions:

•Is it legal?
•Will it achieve its aims?
•Does it maintain the standing of the UK in the eyes of the world?

The answer to all three questions is no'

Great to welcome @SDoughtyMP and Councillor Ash Lister @AshL93 Cabinet Member for Social Services at #GreatGetTogether Cardiff yesterday. Excited to see #MoreInCommon Cardiff develop from such community spirit in #grangetown Huge congrats to organisers @Grange_Pavilion!

Great atmosphere at Grange Gardens today! Fantastic community spirit! And Grangetown’s Spider-Man returned to pick up a community award from @SDoughtyMP

Thoughts of everyone at @pridecymru are with our family at @OsloPride 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇳🇴. ❤️

We stand with you for hope and love in the face of hate and anger. An attack on one of us is an attack on us all.

Horrified by the attack on #LondonPub
My heartfelt condolences and compassion to the victims, their families and friends

I will not allow this or any other attack on the community to drive me back into the shadows of society.

As we mark #ArmedForcesDay, I would like to send my deepest thanks and best wishes to our Armed Forces Community here in Wales.

Today is a chance for us to pause and recognise their sacrifice and the huge contribution they make to our communities each and every day - diolch.

Today on #ArmedForcesDay, we celebrate the special service our UK Forces personnel, veterans, and their families give to our country.

From helping Britain through Covid to keeping us safe and protecting our NATO allies, Labour is deeply proud of you. Thank you.

Britain’s armed forces are the best in the world — today, on #ArmedForcesDay, we thank both those serving and our veterans for their service.

Clarence Thomas writes, in a concurring opinion, that the Supreme Court should reconsider Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell — the rulings that now protect contraception, same-sex relationships, and same-sex marriage.

This is devastating and will have immense consequences for women across America.

My prayers go out to the millions of women who will be put at increased risk as a result of this cruel and regressive act.

A dark chapter in the history of the US.

This is a devastating step backwards for women's rights in the United States.

Every woman who needs one should have the right to a safe and legal abortion.

Solidarity with every woman affected by this cruel decision. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-61928898

Congratulations to @simonlightwood!

Hundreds of courageous British Council contractors are still stuck in Afghanistan, facing daily violence from the Taliban as a result of their cooperation with the UK.

The Government must act to evacuate those who promoted security, tolerance and democracy in Afghanistan.

Emotional to be at the unveiling of the Windrush memorial at Waterloo station. Thinking of my father who arrived here in 1956 and all who came to this country to help rebuild it after WW2. I shall bring my children to see the statue and one day I hope my grandkids #WindrushDay

My review in @housemag_co on @QueerBritain Museum just opened - don't miss it worth a visit https://twitter.com/TheHouseMag/status/1539548443542269953

Very positive meeting with @SDoughtyMP. We discussed important issues of interest for 🇪🇸 and 🇬🇧 such as bilateral relations, Brexit and Ukraine.

It's unbelievable that @TrussLiz made no attempt to defends cuts to development aid in the midst of a global food and hunger crisis in FCDO questions today.

Britain should be leading on, not retreating from, the world stage.

Because our Welsh Labour Government reached a deal with rail workers, unions, and operators, Transport for Wales staff aren’t striking today.

But our rail network is still in a state of chaos, because Boris Johnson and Grant Shapps refuse to come to the table and do the same.

Change does not happen just because of one person - it could not have happened without the amazing support of @APPG_HIV_AIDS and wider Members of the Houses - special thanks to @BWallaceMP, @PennyMordaunt, @SDoughtyMP, @FloEshalomi, @LizBarkerLords and @LibDemLords https://twitter.com/APPG_HIV_AIDS/status/1539141605168406528

Glad to have worked with @OBrownRN @THTorguk @NAT_AIDS_Trust @BritishHIVAssoc to ensure that UK armed forces personnel with HIV are to be declared fully fit & be able to deploy overseas.

Here in Wales we will continue to welcome those fleeing war and conflict.

We do it because it is the right thing to do.

We do it because we are a Nation Of Sanctuary ❤️

#WorldRefugeeDay

Rail workers kept our country going during the pandemic.

Many lost colleagues and friends.

They are the same people this shameless Prime Minister promised a high-wage economy to, before presiding over the biggest fall in living standards on record.

Visiting NATO Allied Maritime Command, I spoke to our troops about the situation in Ukraine and the need to bolster Britain’s defence and security at home and abroad.

Labour’s commitment to NATO is unshakeable. We stand with our allies against Putin's illegal war in Ukraine.

1 Week to go!⏰❤️Join us for #GreatGetTogether in Cardiff at Grangetown Festival, with @ChoirwithNoName, #RefugeeWeek readings by Welsh writers & Picnic in the Park! Pass it on! 🥳🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿Thanks to all our partners inc .@Grange_Pavilion .@smtv @cardiffcouncil & so many more!

An honour for @BGIPU to host a delegation of Ukrainian MPs in @UKParliament where UK 🇬🇧 and 🇺🇦 Parliamentarians stand side-by-side to oppose Russia’s illegal invasion.

Prime Minister, it’s time to ditch the gimmicks and face up to reality: under your leadership, Britain’s economy is going backwards.
