An impactful event from RBK today: Strength in Community: Challenging Hate Together.

Great to share ideas and experiences with RBK staff, VCSEs, and other local partners.

We must move beyond needing to react to hate, and work towards cohesion, unity, and prevention.

Our streets and community should be free from acts and messages of hate. We all deserve safe, welcoming spaces, and I have, once again, written to the council on this matter, and asked them to deal with the latest incident swiftly.

Forward with the Employment Rights Bill in full.

No ifs, no buts. Forward.

But real change can't stop there...

From teaching CPR to inspiring young people through opportunities like the fire cadets, and collecting coats for people in need in winter, itโ€™s always so heartening to see the difference they make.

Above and beyond! Thank you!

Angela Rayner has always stood for hope and opportunity, achieving so much when others said she wouldnโ€™t. She gave me words of kindness and wisdom during a hard time years ago, and Iโ€™ll never forget it. Her work on rentersโ€™ rights and employment rights will impact so many lives.

Something particularly tasteless about this when his own tax arrangements are hardly above reproach. Angela was found to have acted with integrity, but nonetheless breached the Ministerial Code and resigned. Farage wouldn't know what integrity looks like.

We had a great time at the New Malden K-pop Awards! ๐ŸŽถโœจ

Well done to the organisers for a great event & sharing a much-needed message: K-pop more than music & dance - itโ€™s about people from different backgrounds & ages coming together, connecting & inspiring positive energy in their community.

Reform do not care about the safety of women & girls.

Their record in local government is one of chaos, incompetence & posturing.

Farage praised Trump & Andrew Tate - calling an abuser & trafficker โ€œan important voice for men.โ€

Reform wonโ€™t work for the people & rebuild Britain.

Kingston Labour out on the doors, talking to residents about what matters to them, from housing to local services.

Labour is working hard to turn around over a decade of total mismanagement & lack of investment - with housing, health & stronger worker rights as key priorities.

Reform claim to back workers โ€” but have turned their back on them again and again, voting AGAINST the Employment Rights Bill to keep:

โœ… Fire & rehire
โœ… Exploitative zero-hours
โœ… No unfair dismissal protection 2 yrs
โœ… 3-day sick pay wait

Theyโ€™re not on your side.

The Old Political Double Act Returns โ€“ Only Labour Is Standing Up for Your Rights at Work - Kingston Labour Party 6th August 2025 As Labour fights to deliver the strongest set of workersโ€™ rights in a generation, the Tories and Lib Dems have reunited to try and block it โ€” just like they did in the Coalition years....

โœ… Sensible changes to support hardworking people. Thatโ€™s what Labourโ€™s Employment Rights Bill does.

โŒ The Liberal Democrats and Reform UK have both worked with the Conservatives in Parliament to try and block it.

Iโ€™ve mulled over posting this for months now. But yesterday it came to a head. And Iโ€™m aware that the people who need to see it will either not be here, or will suggest that Iโ€™m lying.

I live near an asylum hotel. The reason I didnโ€™t post earlier is that I didnโ€™t want to raise undue attention

Delighted this funding is coming, that will benefit our young people in Kingston.

As a mum, Iโ€™ve been concerned about the huge decline in investment in spaces & opportunities.

Itโ€™s brilliant young people have been put the heart of policy, and properly consulted on it as well.
