What a load of rubbish from @MPIainDS. Disappointing to see this from someone that I once considered a serious politician. What he and @jkyleofficial describe is complete fantasy, scaremongering nonsense. Unserious journalism agrivating a now unserious party @Conservatives.
🚨"It's a total shambles" Sir Iain Duncan Smith slams Labour's Conversion Practices Bill for criminalising children who question transgenderism and warns Jeremy Kyle that Downing Street listens to Talk. @MPIainDS | @jkyleofficial

Arrived in Britain as a refugee on 2 November 2004 - came down an escalator at @manairport n’all. 22 years on, and the rest, as they say, is history!

Such a pleasure to see so many Labour MPs and members supporting the Bangladesh Caterers Association’s annual awards tonight at Park Plaza Westminster Bridge. Curry has long been a much-loved part of British life. Behind the dishes enjoyed in households across the country are thousands of small businesses, many family-run, creating jobs, keeping our high streets vibrant and bringing communities together. At SME4Labour, we’re proud to champion these businesses and the people whose hard work has made the curry industry such an important part of Britain’s food culture and economy. Congratulations to tonight’s winners and nominees! 👏 #SME4Labour #CurryIndustry #SmallBusiness @BCA1960 @kevinbonavia @mike_reader @RupaHuq @anne_clarke @4Hussain @ibrahim_Dogus @KhanOli @parvezahmed80

NEW @Telegraph understands Nigel Farage did not display a valid date stamp on his prayer card and it was removed as per Chamber protocol. I also understand Mr Farage did not attend prayers and did not approach Commons staff regarding a seat reservation. telegraph.co.uk/politics/202…

You do nothing all year to support a town you nominally, partially represent. You get exposed for not lifting a finger. You've not thanked any of the brilliant people who worked on the bid, or celebrated our town. And you've blamed other people despite that. Weird behaviour.
Always blaming others for your own incompetence

Great to see fellow MP & construction expert @mike_reader speak at the launch of @RICSnews Skills Report, which is highlighting shortages in the surveying profession, essential skills for housing development & large infrastructure projects. The largest gap is mid career surveyors especially women. As someone who has been there & became a FRICS (fellow) - the Labour Party’s support of equality in the work place helped me my whole career -since Blair and Brown till I stopped in 2024. Our new Employment Rights Bill strengthened maternity and paternity rights, creating the conditions for women to thrive in careers like surveying and will benefit those to come up through the profession as I once did. It was therefore so lovely to hear from RICS Matrics Chair Annabelle Huffer MRICS - an associate building surveyor at Knight Frank.👏

The vote is in, and I'm delighted to share that the clergy of @Peterborodio have elected me to General Synod. Please pray for us, and for all who took part in the elections.

Not journalists. Propagandists.
Reform UK is hiring at least 12 journalists to build a "national publishing operation" including a digital newsroom and expanded video output via Reform TV on Youtube

BREAKING: Bridget Phillipson responds on behalf of Labour to the racist and antisemitic motion today. It’s strong and she doesn’t mince her words to be fair. Bridget Phillipson MP, Chair of the Labour Party, and Minister for Women and Equalities, responds to the Green Party’s vote on Zionism at the Green Party Conference, said:   “It is shameful to vote against a two-state solution for Israel and Palestine and to condemn the vast majority of British Jews and Jews around the world as racist for supporting Israel’s right to exist. It is fundamentally wrong and the leadership of the Green Party must make clear that this will not be their position moving forwards.   “The Labour Party has always been clear that criticism of the policies of the Israeli Government is not antisemitic, and the Labour government has condemned Israel’s actions in Gaza and the West Bank. But today’s vote at the Green Party Conference crosses a line and should be condemned across the political spectrum.   “This vote underlines how important it was that we changed the Labour Party from top to bottom and ripped out the scourge of antisemitism from within the party.    "The Labour Party and the Labour Government will continue working every day to ensure our Jewish communities are safe, feel safe and have their rights upheld, as well as making sure we rid our society of antisemitism once and for all.”

'This is disgusting.' Labour MP Mike Reader has branded the rioters in France 'thugs' and hopes it is a 'flash protest'.
