📣 Great news for young people: thousands will once again have the chance to study and train in Europe for a year 🇬🇧🤝🇪🇺 The loss of Erasmus was one of the many failures of the last Government’s Brexit deal. Today I spoke in the House of Commons about how we’re putting this right.

Regulate gas ➡️ Cut bills 📉 As we move to clean, secure renewables, we shouldn’t tolerate gas power stations profiteering. Analysis from @greenpeaceuk.bsky.social shows moving gas power stations into the Regulated Asset Base could save millions off our bills. Let’s do it ✅

Zero tolerance for AI sexualising images of children ❌ It’s been sickening to hear reports of AI tools on social media platforms being used to create sexualised images of children. Today in Parliament I pressed Ministers to refuse to tolerate vile practise.
📈 More investment for SEND places in our schools. Since being elected, I’ve campaigned hard on the lack of provision for families across our Hitchin constituency. Councils must do better, but they also need proper national backing. That’s why we've invested £3bn.
Changes to Grok by X are an important win and testament to everyone who called out this grim practise. Especially the many women who did so knowing it would make them a target for exactly this abuse. Plenty more to do, but a welcome reminder that it’s in our power to make online spaces safer.
Remembering Private Jonathan Kitulagoda 🇬🇧 I am grateful to the Deputy Prime Minster today for taking the time during PMQs to pay respects to Private Jonathan Kitulagoda. Having grown up locally, Jonathan was the first British soldier killed by enemy action in Afghanistan, on this day in 2004.
Fighting to expand our GPs 🏥 Government investment in 1,600 more GPs is welcome, but in areas like ours where we have seen significant growth we need larger GP surgeries too ✅

Who’s a bigger threat to your privacy: the government tracking your car, or the tech bro sitting next to you filming with smart glasses? I testified before the California State Senate on two bills to address privacy risks of surveillance tech. Here's a short video about it.

So yesterday Trump posted a video of him crashing Stephen Colbert's final show, and literally throwing him in the garbage, and of course, I had to FIX it. #DonaldTrump #StephenColbert
One wonders if Russia will ever release figures on how many soldiers were killed or injured during Putin's invasion of Ukraine? Or rather, do the Russian people even care to know? As usual, Russian propaganda care most about how many Ukrainians they have managed to murder! #Russia #Ukraine

Today, I got an email from a man called Howard. He’d listened to God Next Door - my documentary about a man, James, who claims to be God and the people who follow him - and wanted to know why I hadn’t asked him how he created the universe. I get this sort of question a lot, and here is why…
