When a sector has issues, we should talk to its workers. More often than not, they have the solutions. This week in Parliament, I set out what lawyers have been telling us about tackling the courts backlog: reform and investment, not restricting jury trials.

Menstrual stigma socially conditions women to conceal pain, push through it and stay silent at work. Statutory menstrual leave is not a radical policy, it is a practical, compassionate and long-overdue step towards a fairer and healthier working society.
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.
For something so universal, menstruation remains shrouded in coded language, embarrassment and unnecessary shame. We need to normalise the conversation around it and ensure we are challenging stigma rather than reinforcing it.
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.
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
If and when the PM resigns, we need a proper democratic process to replace him; not a coronation.
We urgently need legislation to ban the private sale of human remains. Human body parts are still being openly sold online with no clarity about their provenance. As things stand, the government has no plan to address this.
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.
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 children who grow up in Britain are denied their citizenship rights because families can't afford the high fee. I’ll keep pushing the government to stop pricing these children out of citizenship and strengthen their rights.

This from @sineadbovell is worth paying attention to. As AI gets pulled closer to state power, surveillance, and national security, the real question is not just what the tech can do. It is who it serves, who it protects, and who it puts at risk. #AI

Niall is really rubbing me wrong in his behavior re: not paying Ruben the money back that he borrowed. Like, everything about Niall's reasons strikes me as bullshit plus he stole the money from his gf's dad. I'm beginning to think Niall is worse + more toxic than Ruben. #Halfman #tvsky

Humanity is apart of nature, not above it! Your generation has far more power than you may realize. And if you harness that power, if you find your leadership, your issues, your voice, the world will not be able to ignore you. You will have to be accommodated! Believe me, I know that’s true!
