Policy must be based on evidence to be effective – so why, given agricultural pollution makes up 40% of the pollution in our waterways, did the government’s Water White Paper dedicate only a single page to addressing it?
It's clear that the government's strategy of attempting to appease Donald Trump has roundly failed; when you cede ground to a bully, you only embolden them further. It's time for the UK to show some genuine backbone in the face of the US President's aggression and unreliability.
Time and time again we hear govt ministers condemn Israel's flagrant breaches of international law but take no real action. This is simply not enough. Ban settlement trade, stop all arms sales to and military cooperation with Israel, and pursue investigations into war crimes.
Once again the UK govt condemns Israel's actions and says they are prepared to take further action - then fail to do so. This inaction is unacceptable. Ban settlement trade, sanction Netanyahu, stop all military cooperation with Israel, punish war crimes.
There is huge local effort in North Herefordshire to tackle agricultural pollution in the Wye & Lugg - but we need proper government support for the solutions local people want: farmer-led landscape recovery projects; more funding and teeth for the EA, and a WPZ for the Wye.
The role of gold in financing the horrors we are seeing in Sudan, including through illicitly financing arms imports, cannot be underestimated. The UK must take action to stop illegal gold trade from fuelling this brutal conflict.
The govt is refusing to commit to an inquiry into the MOD's contracts with US-based spy tech giant Palantir despite the web of shady connections between Mandelson, Epstein, and Palantir co-founder Peter Thiel - this absolutely stinks.
The Mandelson scandal must lead to a fundamental change in the political establishment's treatment of the brave women and girls who speak out about horrific abuse at the hands of men like Jeffrey Epstein - and the treatment of those who support, enable, or allow those abuses.
It shouldn't take an MP intervening in a complaint for the DVLA to finally respond to an individual - but for 18 of my constituents, this has been the only way to get a response. The system must work better to ensure timely responses to the public.
There is clearly a case to be answered on Starmer's statements about the Mandelson vetting scandal - that is what today's vote is about, and why I supported the Motion. All MPs, regardless of Party, owe it to their conscience and their constituents to do the same.
Noah Wyle: "Congress-pass healthcare workers' tax credit. Medicine is hard enough with the staffing ratio and decades old tuition bills." We must support those whose calling in life is to serve those in need. Their life's mission is to help us. Now, it's our turn to help them.

It's universally accepted Libya was a disaster, and that the best thing would have been the status quo. This ignores the path not taken, had the Obama admin not back to the coup in Egypt. A strong democratic Egypt would have had a stabilizing effect on neighbours like Libya (and Palestine).

Bij protesten tegen #azc duiken steeds vaker dezelfde actiegroepen op, ziet Jelle Postma. “Je ziet dezelfde gezichten steeds weer terug. In besloten online groepen doen leden Nazi-uitspraken. En dan is er Identitair verzet, leden van die groep als milities geopereerd.”
From the Russia-Ukraine war, we can see that future human warfare will primarily be technological warfare. Contact combat will become increasingly rare, with more emphasis on remote, high-tech operations. Future nations will no longer rely on large numbers of soldiers for external combat;
