Rupa Huq MP

New sweet shop with branches in Denmark and Damascus now open in Acton!

Highlight of #LabourPartyConference for me so far; DJing at Labour list disco

Rupa Huq MP holds a penny-shaped placard next to Independent Age's makeshift Penny Lane street sign. The MP pledges to "speak up for the 2 million older people in poverty in the UK".

@rupahuq.bsky.social is among many dropping by for a chat about our #MakeAgeingFair campaign and Penny Lane placards this morning!

With our ageing society, it's important we ensure everyone can live well in later life, now and in the future.

Delighted to say Ealing central and Acton voted to nominate @LucyMPowell for Deputy Leader of the Labour Party tonight

A clip!

Great evening yesterday shaking my bits to the hits for Suede at the Royal Festival Hall

Tom Baker and Louise Jameson, as The Doctor and Leela in #DoctorWho with K-9 outside BBC rehearsal studios known as “the Acton Hilton”
in Acton, London (where I’m now MP) on 7th October 1977

Happy 60th anniversary @ealingmencap

Enjoyed DJing at your do. May there be many more

What a pleasant surprise to
(a) Happen across a copy of what used to be called the Ealing Gazette - now with much wider geological reach
(b) Find myself and Konnie Huq in it!

Sign of the times

My first time inside…

Fascinating visit in my capacity as MP for HMP Wormwood Scrubs

UK MPs voice alarm at rise in online abuse over immigration debate After further demonstrations at hotels housing asylum seekers, MPs say harassment is worse than during Brexit

The rising tide of abuse towards MPs must stop… with two MPs murdered since I’ve been one, we know where it can lead

Am quoted in this report which made the front page of the Guardian

www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

It may be stating the obvious but …

MPs should never live in fear of doing their job

For the time since 2018 the centre of Acton has postal services again; be it parcels, stamps, holiday money… it’s all available Monday- Friday. Here the moment the ribbon was cut

In the 80s and 90s I was at Montpelier
Primary and Notting Hill and Ealing High pupil. Returned to BOTH yesterday to sample Ealing Council HAF scheme ie Summer holiday camps

Impressed by kids up to age 12 doing JAGs activities and learning Leo’s circus skills

Enjoyable evening of shared experiences @parkinsons.org.uk Ealing cafe opposite Ealing Town Hall, one of 31 similar support groups in London

All welcome!
@rorycj.bsky.social who’s been before is like many on hols for Aug

Triumphant gig in the park they bunked off in as schoolkids for Ealing’s own Brand New Heavies tonight at Walpole park.

Who needs Oasis when you can have “Midnight at the Oasis”!

Not Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory but great visit to Doughlicious artisan cookies in Park Royal with Dame Karen Buck of OPDC and @westlondonbiz.bskyb.social who started in a kitchen and are now stocked in BA and Waitrose

Their ice-cream encased in spicy dough shell was amazing

Well done England lionesses, champions of Europe.

Michelle, Hannah and Chloe you’ve done the whole nation proud.

As for Elthorne High school Ealing, Chloe’s alma mater… you can say that again:

Rupa Huq, "58 of us were considered rebels for wanting a ceasefire, everyone (including Keir Starmer) wants a ceasefire now"

"Something has to break the status quo that we've got and recognising a Palestinian state might be it"

We are grateful to Scottish Labour MSPs for adding their names in support of our statement on recognition.

Alongside yesterday’s statement from Anas Sarwar, it sends a clear message that all Scottish Labour MSPs support recognition of the State of Palestine.

I have signed the letter alongside 220+ other MPs calling for the recognition of state of Palestine

I went on @news.sky.com to explain
