I have put down an amendment to this narrow Bill, that would require the Government to show how many families are blocked from receiving the support they would otherwise be entitled to if the overall cap did not exist. Will the Government act? 👇 publications.parliament.uk/pa/bills/cbi...

The Prime Minister knew of Mandelson's friendship with Epstein but chose to appoint him anyway. As @elliechowns.bsky.social said yesterday: "What is unforgiveable is that he was more concerned with pandering to Donald Trump than with standing with the victims and survivors." He must resign.

Some snippets from my speech in Parliament on Pride Month. If the current environment for LGBTQ+ people teaches us one thing, it is that progress if precious and rights for any of us can, if not defended fully, be rolled back. It is our job in this place to prevent this.

Grateful for the cross-party debate on dangerous proposals from Govt to scrap jury trials. Did my best to encourage Conservatives in the debate to own up to their role in creating the dire mess our courts are in, but got a very poor response.

Wonderful to be out in Hackney helping to make HISTORY with Zoë Garbett, who could be our first Green elected Mayor (!) BUT she and all the council candidates need your help on the doorsteps to make sure we listen to everyone in the borough by voting day. Just 12 sleeps left until 7 May!

Yesterday I pushed Ministers again to include Ella's Law in the upcoming King's Speech. With a proper plan like this, everyone in the UK could be breathing clean air. The cost to our lives and the health of our children of letting this vital Bill sit on the shelf is simply too high. #EllasLaw

Why should communication involving the royals be exempt from Freedom of Information requests? It really is one rule for the rich and powerful, and one rule for the rest of us. I intend to work with other MPs to close this outrageous royal transparency loophole.

The BBC needs defending - from outside forces like President Trump and his propaganda values, and from current and future political appointments to its Board within. I raised these huge risks to our national asset with the Culture Secretary this week:

The incarceration of people for months and years without trial for offences that are in essence political has no place in a democracy like ours. And in case it needed saying Greens oppose BOTH the increasing criminalisation of protest AND the removal of jury trials!

The Justice Secretary is not considering: Jury trials guard against tyranny for offences against the state or corporations. Risk of politicising decisions leading to attacks on women and minoritised judges.

Pro-Palestinian tourists call out ex-IOF Israeli soldiers in a restaurant in Vietnam after spotting one of their tattoos in the shape of Palestine and then continue to remind them of their genocidal behavior until they’re forced to leave.

Congress cannot allow the Trump Administration to start another unauthorized war — in Cuba or anywhere else. As we work to end the war in Iran, Congress must act preemptively to prevent another illegal conflict before it begins.

“Trump appeared to signal prior awareness of a Johnson–Farage electoral alignment in 2019, praising them as an ‘unstoppable force’. Shortly afterwards, the Brexit Party withdrew from 317 Tory-held seats — a pivotal moment in the election.”
