Billionaire wealth keeps piling up. Everyone else is left with less and less. With this mountain of pasta, I show why we need to tax the Billionaires.

Nigel Farage is now talking about cutting the minimum wage for young people. Once again, instead of going after the super-rich, he attacks ordinary workers. So much for being a man of the people.

I've long campaigned for a Wealth Tax - and it’s great to see the call growing stronger by the day. A 2% Wealth Tax on assets over £10 million could raise £24 BILLION per year. And polls show that 75% of the public supports a wealth tax! Together, we can win this!

This Saturday, I’m joining the @togetheralliance.bsky.social march for unity against the far right. People are really struggling. But instead of offering real alternatives to our rigged economy, the far-right are scapegoating migrants and minorities. Join us. Let’s show hope will win over hate!

I was proud to join constituents at the Stand Up To Racism counter-demo in East Leeds. The far right offers no answers - just division. We need to build a mass movement against racism and the scapegoating of migrants and minorities and for a better society for the 99%.

Today I handed in my petition for a wealth tax, backed by over 80,000 people, to Downing Street. The campaign for a wealth tax is growing from strength to strength. Together, we are going to win this!

Merry Christmas to everyone in East Leeds and all across the country 🎄⛄ A huge thank you to all the NHS and emergency service workers, and to everyone in retail, hospitality and beyond, working through the holidays. Let’s build a world of peace, justice and equality in 2026.

ID cards are a threat to civil liberties, to data security & risk people’s private info being handed to US tech giants for profit. They’re also a total waste of time and money when the government should be focused on people's real priority: tackling the cost of living crisis. In Parliament today.

We can’t let Farage strip away the rights that help ordinary people stand up to the rich and powerful.

UK billionaire wealth has more than doubled since 2010. Workers’ wages have barely risen since 2008. On Newsnight, I called for a tax on extreme wealth - that's the fairer alternative to cuts we need.

Trump’s illegal war on Iran and enocidal threats are part of a dangerous new agenda. The Trump Doctrine means yet more war and ripping up international law. For too long, Britain has acted as the USA’s junior partner. It's time to pursue a truly independent foreign policy.

This week’s startup news felt pretty clear: capital is still there, but it is chasing startups that remove real operational pain.

California & the White House do not share the same values, especially when it comes to feeding our kids. This SNAP/CalFresh disruption wasn’t unavoidable. The administration has the funds to prevent it. This is an intentionally manufactured hunger crisis, & American families are paying the price.

Finished up #Privileges that is streaming on #HBOMax. It's a good little drama / thriller French series starring Manon Bresch from Netflix's "Mortel" series. It built up things slowly so it took a few eps to have things kick off but by ep 4, things started popping. I liked it. #tvsky #streaming
