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 renters' rights act significantly strengthens the rights and protections of millions of renters in Britain. But there is more work to do, particularly on the issue of affordability. This King's Speech should have included rent controls.

I welcome the government's decision to extend the vote to 16-year-olds. Anyone claiming young people don’t care or understand about politics isn’t talking to them. Extending the franchise should be accompanied by comprehensive civic and political education. #VotesAt16

Local policing teams are working to stop disturbances in Clapham over the Easter weekend. There will be an increased policing presence with dispersal orders in place. Police are working to remove social media content inciting disruption and reach local parents.

Student loans now comes with the kind of terms you’d expect from a loan shark. It's not a graduate tax. It's not fair. We need a more equitable approach to higher education funding. Scrap tuition fees and fund higher education through general taxation.

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.

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.

The internet has made it easier than ever for people to buy and sell human remains. When the last line of defence against this is social media platforms, you know we're in trouble! We need to change the law to ban this grim trade.

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.

The climate crisis is overwhelming, but together we can find hope. In our latest episode, we explore eco-anxiety and its links to social justice. Join us as we discuss how taking action can lead to meaningful change. Listen now!

Francis Maxwell: "The one thing America needs at this moment while a war is going on and affordability crisis is here is an octagon on the South Lawn — cage fight, at the White House, for Trump's birthday. Just take a second and imagine you were in a coma before 2016 and woke up to that sentence."
