This morning I spoke to President @ZelenskyyUa and reaffirmed that there can be no talks about Ukraine, without Ukraine. Ukraine has our concrete support – for as long as it is needed.

Getting a secure roof over your head is life changing. It was heartwarming to listen to a group of new residents who have finally been able to do just that. As part of our Plan for Change, we will build 1.5m homes and increase the number of social and affordable houses.

Smart climate policy means not only protecting future generations from the biggest existential threat we face, but fighting to make working people better off today, growing our economy and confronting the economic injustices we face. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Today I heard testimonies from renters @genrentuk, who have suffered the indignity of living in cold, unsafe homes. The fight for a fair deal for renters is a case of economic justice. That's why we are taking action to enforce proper energy efficiency standards.

The UK is clear there must be a two-state solution, with Palestinians able to live and prosper in their homelands in Gaza and the West Bank. I spoke with Palestinian Authority Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Dr Varsen Aghabekian to reiterate our position.

Can twitter help source this picture please? It’s on BBC News app but no mention of photographer. (As is usual in mainstream media, unfortunately) Brilliant shot and deserves recognition. #StormEowyn #Photography

🌱 This morning, @KerryMP and @MGShanks met with @coopparty and community energy groups to discuss how community energy can put power in local hands and cut bills. 💡 With the Local Power Plan, GB Energy will supercharge the work of community energy groups across the country.

I wholly endorse this. It’s early days for sure but it’s the best news to come out of the Middle East since 7 October 2023.
This is a moment of hope after over a year of agony. All phases of the deal must be implemented in full and we must establish a pathway to lasting peace and security for Israelis and Palestinians alike. My statement on the Israel-Hamas ceasefire.

It's time for action to protect vulnerable children. Today Labour brings forward the single biggest piece of child protection legislation in a generation. The Tories are trying to block action to keep children safe.
