Transgender rights are human rights.

This International Day of Transgender Visibility, Amnesty Feminists remind us that transgender existence is not up for debate.

We must support the transgender community and demand an end to transgender hate crimes.

Government has amended the Children’s Wellbeing Bill to include many other public bodies as corporate parent for children in care & care leavers. This will make a big difference in prioritising the needs of care experienced young people and we @childrenssociety.bsky.social warmly welcome it

Parents fear what they're feeding their kids as prices back them into a corner Almost one in five parents have to buy unhealthy food for their children because they can’t afford healthier options - as campaigners call for free school meals expansion

We're calling for free school meals for all primary school children, and immediately to families on Universal Credit. CEO @lynnanneperry states "with the price of basic items staying stubbornly high, healthy food is out of reach". Read more: www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

I’ve been asked by some followers to put together a starter pack of queer football fans to make it easier for us to find each other, so comment if you’d like to be in it and I’ll get it started

Co-operators are working across Parliament to deliver on priorities like ending violence against shop workers, doubling the size of the co-operator sector, community ownership and energy.

Our biggest group of MPs, and all keen to make a difference. 🐝

I’m very excited to be at the House of Commons for an event.
Saw a woman, also a visitor, like me. She looks bloody fabulous. So I told her.
And straight back she said β€˜so do you, I love your hair’ so we both smiled a lot and kept walking.

Today, on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, we stand firm against misogyny in all its forms.

We must support survivors, tackle gender-based hatred wherever it arises, and commit to finally ending this epidemic of abuse.

We need to set up the next generation with a knowledge of co-operatives so they can build the stronger, fairer, and greener economy of the future.

Gareth Snell MP makes the case for co-operatives on the curriculum.
