Tomorrow, the United Nations will vote on Ghana's motion to recognise the Transatlantic slave trade as a crime against humanity. Given Britain's central role in this crime, a vote against would be a betrayal of every life consumed by enslavement and colonialism.

The British state has never truly apologised for our nation's role in African chattel slavery and colonialism. Today, I presented a petition calling for an unequivocal apology and an All-Party Parliamentary Commission for Truth and Reparatory Justice to address these grave crimes and their legacy.
The government's rail fare freeze is welcome but intercity rail fares in England remain eye wateringly high. Yesterday, I asked for clarity on how new powers in the Railways Bill could be used to bring costs down for passengers.
In 2026, in the UK, the statistics around Black maternal health still make for grim listening. This week, I pushed the government on its long-promised target to tackle racial inequalities in maternal health. #BMHAW26
Menstrual leave policies already exist across the globe in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, China, Indonesia, Zambia, Mexico and Portugal. We know they are workable. Introducing them would be a logical next step for the government's workers' rights agenda.
Many of the human remains being sold online come from exploited communities and historical contexts marked by colonial violence. These were real people who are now being denied dignity even in death. We need to ban this.
Rail, mail, water, energy. These are not just industries; they are lifelines. Our essential services should never have been handed over to shareholders. It's long past time we took them back.
Legislating for the suffering of Troubles victims remains unfinished business. As does the implementation of a border poll in Northern Ireland. As we approach the anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement, I asked whether the government will take action on both.
In this week's debate on immigration reforms, I pointed out the persistent problem of children being priced out of citizenship in the country they call home. The government can't claim to support integration while continuing this policy.
If and when the PM resigns, we need a proper democratic process to replace him; not a coronation.

As they continue to try and have us honorably celebrate those who fight for liberation and subjugation, freedom and oppression, democracy and tyranny, hate and love; those of moral consciousness refuse the false moral equivalence and are not confused. Rest In Peace and Power #assatashakur 💪🏾
Drop the phrase that instantly makes your blood boil! The translation game is one that manipulative people play. In my fantasy story, there's a group of people who are really good with words. They can make anything sound reasonable: theft, kidnapping, even slavery.

The obtaining of transcripts from family courts can be the difference between justice and injustice, and long delays are pushing people into financial hardship. I'm glad to hear the government is working on it but I will keep pushing Ministers to ensure change is achieved as fast as possible.
