I’ve signed @ianbyrnemp.bsky.social's EDM on ticket pricing in football.
We are sending a clear message to Premier League clubs – football without fans is nothing.
Stop raising ticket prices.
Stop pricing supporters out of the game.

14 years of cuts. Stations gone. 12,000 firefighter jobs lost. Services stretched to breaking point.
Enough is enough.
@fbunational.bsky.social’s Cuts Kill campaign is our fight to reverse the damage and secure the reinvestment needed to build a fire service worthy of the future 🚒🔥
The conversation about housing is all wrong - it’s time to flip the narrative.
The housing emergency is driven by decades of underinvestment in affordable social homes, not by people seeking safety.
It’s time to build more homes & stop scapegoating migrants. You can help change the conversation.
The BBC deserves every bit of criticism here – it should never have been broadcast.
How is it that ‘Free Palestine’ can be censored, but the n-word was allowed to initially be aired?
It doesn’t add up. Serious questions need answering.

Today is Ash Wednesday, marking the beginning of Lent and 40 days of preparation for Easter.
Wishing everyone observing this season blessings, peace and a meaningful time of reflection with loved ones and your faith.
Representation, not red tape ❌
Today, thanks to the Employment Rights Act, most of the Tories' 2016 Trade Union Act is repealed, removing restrictions designed to tie unions up in knots.
Our unions can now focus on what they do best - organising to win better pay & conditions!
Ramadan Mubarak to all celebrating across Liverpool and beyond.
May this blessed time bring peace, happiness and prosperity to you, your family and friends 🌙✨
Happy #LunarNewYear to those celebrating in Liverpool and around the world!
May the Year of the Horse bring you strength & great success 🐎
Always proud that Liverpool is home to Europe’s oldest Chinese community.

"It has been ten years since the Supreme Court admitted that the law on joint enterprise had ‘taken a wrong turn."
As we mark ten years since the Jogee ruling, I’ve written in @justicegap.bsky.social about why justice cannot wait another ten years 👇

The Cabinet Office is “assembling the facts” about the actions of its own Minister - how on earth is that independent?
This is unacceptable. We need a fully independent investigation, not a process they run and control themselves.

The decision to proscribe PA under terrorism law has been ruled unlawful by the High Court today.
I was proud to vote against the proscription of PA. Our right to protest is under sustained attack & it must be protected. The government must not appeal.

I was honoured to open @rmtunion.bsky.social's Health and Safety Conference in Liverpool this morning.
Violence is not – and should never be – "part of the job."
I am committed to ending the outsourcing racket that’s undermining safety, equality and the future of our railways.
Had an inspiring afternoon with the African Caribbean Society at @liverpooluni.bsky.social for their Breaking Barriers event last week ✨
It was a privilege to share my journey into Parliament & to discuss the challenges, the breakthroughs & importance of Black voices across these spaces.
“Enjoying mafia movies doesn’t make me a killer. So be wary of the state using rap music to prove murder”
Shami Chakrabarti is absolutely right - creative expression must be protected from misuse in our justice system.
Read her excellent article 👇🏽

It’s #HeartUnions Week 2026!
Being in a union gave me a voice at work – now I use mine in Parliament to fight for workers' rights.
I’m proud to have voted for the Employment Rights Act, the biggest upgrade in employment rights in a generation ❤️🌹

Lovely visit to M&S L1 last week to catch up with store manager Margaret & hear about how the amazing team is getting on.
It was also a pleasure to meet Jean, who recently celebrated 40 years at M&S!
Such a warm, welcoming team at M&S L1 - it really does feel like a family.

Powerful APPG on Miscarriages of Justice event hearing from Oliver Campbell, Peter Sullivan & Justin Plummer – three wrongly convicted men who spent a total of 77 years in prison.
Their stories show a system failing people twice: convicting the innocent & abandoning them after release.
Looking forward to chairing this really important event in Parliament this evening.
The ‘unconscionable cruelty’ of current arrangements for miscarriage of justice compensation must end.

“The golden circle of unaccountable power must be broken. The culture of impunity must be dismantled. And Mandelson’s era of shady influence must finally come to an end.”

Sunlight is the best disinfectant - and what’s been exposed shows McSweeney’s operation is rotten to the core.
We’re told the adults are in the room. If this is their idea of leadership, No. 10 needs gutting from top to bottom.

@thecriminalbar.bsky.social is clear: “there is no evidence that this major constitutional reform would solve the crisis.”
Tackle the real causes of the backlog and do not introduce counter-productive reforms. We must protect jury trials.

Historic night in Parliament. We voted to scrap the cruel two-child limit - a policy that drove child poverty to record highs.
By ending it, nearly 500,000 children will be lifted out of poverty, including over 4000 in Liverpool Riverside. A huge first step, but not the last.

We want hungry minds, not hungry bellies.
From April, 8 more schools in Liverpool Riverside will offer free breakfast through our expanded breakfast club programme - supporting over 2,000 local pupils.
We're committed to driving down child poverty & improving attainment ✏📚
Mandelson’s sleazy networks of influence, elite access & unanswered questions are exactly why #Leveson2 was called for in the first place.
Scrapping it protected power, not the public.
We immediately need #Leveson2. No more shielding, no more silence.

Excellent meeting with the Ahmadiyya Muslim community at Bait-ul-Kateef Mosque with Cllr Portia Fahey this weekend.
Great discussion on the opportunities of Everton East's Pride in Place programme & vital conversations on the rising persecution of Ahmadiyya Muslims in Pakistan.
Visited Liverpool Crown Court as part of a Court Constituency Day with @thebarcouncil.bsky.social.
Message was clear: scrapping jury trials won’t fix delays. Liverpool’s low backlog & strong workplace culture show what’s possible & what should be replicated nationally.
