Join us on Monday to talk about restoring democracy to the Labour Party. The Mandelson and Labour Together affairs show the need for party members to take back control of their party now more than ever.
Join us next Monday in our online discussion about how we can restore democracy in the Labour Party.
The right to a trial by jury is fundamental. There are a range of improvements put forward by legal professionals working in our courts to improve efficiency of our system without the need to restrict access to jury trial. That’s why I’ll vote against threat to jury trial today.
Labour coming third in Gorton & Denton should be a wake-up call.
Members’ and trade union voices have been sidelined and party democracy weakened to push through an increasingly unpopular agenda.
Join the call to restore Labour democracy.

Thanks to the persistent work undertaken by Disability News Service this ongoing failure to address the risk of suicide amongst this vulnerable group of our fellow citizens is revealed. We’ll be pressing government for action.
I’m supporting this campaign from @CHinchliffMP.
Polls show the public want stronger protections for nature — not weaker ones.
Backwards steps risk turning the nature crisis into a catastrophe.
Don’t cross these Red Lines.
Labour coming third in Gorton & Denton was the result of a leadership that ignores members on the policies we need and denies them a real choice of candidate.
I’ve joined trade union leaders, MPs & others to demand: Restore Labour Democracy.

Corridor care is unsafe and undignified. We stand with @richardburgon.bsky.social and @johnmcdonnellmp.bsky.social ✊
With extensive financial links between Cabinet Office ministers & Labour Together now revealed plus ex senior LT staffer holding post in Cabinet Office ethics team, it’s ludicrous for Keir Starmer to expect people to believe this is an independent inquiry.
If this is true, it provides even more justification for the Labour Party to launch an independent inquiry into these allegations that Labour Together sought to smear journalists investigating its activities. Bewildering why it hasn’t. What more is needed? archive.ph/2026.02.18-0...
It’s the 120th anniversary of the adoption of the name the Labour Party. Today, there’s a growing call across the Labour & trade union movement about the need to restore democracy & members’ rights in the Party. If you agree, sign up to the statement in this video.
In recent weeks I’ve written 3 times to the General Secretary of the Labour Party to call for an independent inquiry into this. I copied Keir Starmer into each request. Clear to me as Secretary of the NUJ’s Parliamentary Group if true this is unacceptable. archive.is/2026.02.14-2...
“If @bhamcitycouncil.bsky.social or the commissioners won't negotiate, I expect government ministers to bring them around the table.” - @johnmcdonnellmp.bsky.social.
🔁Share this video & show this council you cannot ban solidarity.
Standing with striking workers is not a crime.

Shame on @bhamcitycouncil.bsky.social.

I asked the Defence minister today to examine whether the £4 million donation to Labour in 2024 by Quadrature. a hedge fund with sizeable investments in Palentir, a client of Mandelson’s company, had any influence on the award of contracts to Palentir, some without competition.

"Keir Starmer yesterday promised a change of culture in the party. This will be an early test of that promise”

Morgan McSweeney’s resignation is the right measure but let’s remember the old adage: Advisers advise but ministers decide. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
I have written twice now to Labour’s General Secretary to investigate this story because if true it is immensely damaging to our party.
Along with many MPs, I want to see @TfL insource its cleaners and support the @RMTUnion campaign. I’m concerned about the charge of corporate capture at TfL so Andy Lord needs to ensure that his ‘comprehensive pilot’ of insourcing actually delivers insourcing for all its cleaners youtu.be/WBIbAn-YDE

Pleased to meet representatives of Royal College of Midwives to discuss the need to train & recruit more midwives. I will be working with them to examine the issues in my constituency & how they can be addressed @MidwivesRCM
So proud to support @ucu campaign rally for FE colleges. Attending a night school FE class at Burnley FE college,when I was on the shop floor, transformed my life. It’s shocking how FE lecturers’ pay has fallen back over last 15 years. Investment in staff is desperately needed.
Thanks for your Solidarity & your example @johnmcdonnellmp.bsky.social
We need a New Deal for FE!

I stand with Ian Byrne on this. The government must fulfil its promise to introduce the full Hillsborough law. No half measures.
Despite all Trump’s smears Sadiq Khan has behaved with dignity, just getting on with the job of reducing serious crime & his focus on this has paid off with such a significant reduction in homicide rates. Each death is a terrible tragedy. That’s why this work is so important.
When Keir Starmer appointed Mandelson I said publicly it was a serious error of judgement. I’ve always been a supporter of the BBC in its role as a public broadcaster but the decision to invite Mandelson onto the Kuensberg programme calls into question once more its own judgment.
Over 50 MPs & MSPs have signed a letter to David Lammy, Secretary of State for Justice, urging him to engage with the legal representatives of the pro Palestinian activists on hunger strike. Given the seriousness of their condition the letter says it would be an act of humanity.
Today was the 24th anniversary of the opening of Guantanamo, infamous for its brutal torture of its inmates. For years we have campaigned with some success for the release of innocent detainees & yet 15 remain. Today in London we joined the worldwide protest demanding its closure
I’ve tabled in Parliament a further Early Day Motion calling on David Lammy, as the Secretary of State for Justice, to engage with the legal
representatives of the pro Palestinian activists on hunger strike & whose health has seriously deteriorated. Urge your MP to sign EDM 2573
