Last night's incident highlights the sheer recklessness of Putin’s war and the ongoing need to guard against miscalculation and deter aggression. Labour stands fully committed to working in support of Ukraine until it wins its freedom.

For too long this government’s diplomacy has been weak. The government must make clear there will be serious diplomatic consequences if consular access is not granted immediately and Alaa Abd el-Fattah is not released and reunited with his family.

Putin's strategy to target civilian infrastructure ahead of the winter is a sign of desperation. Our message to Putin is clear: our support of Ukraine will not falter, and our duty to Ukraine will go on.

At the general election, the @conservatives must be held to account for what they have done to the NHS.

The Conservatives' ideology does not represent our country. Their time is up. A Labour government will forge a different path on the world stage. A United Kingdom that looks outwards instead of inwards. A voice for peace, development and freedom across the globe.

The appalling floods in Pakistan have affected more than 30 million people. The climate crisis is here and now. The government must double on its commitments to Net Zero so the UK can lead from the front to build a clean, green and secure future.

Instead of dealing with sky-rocketing bills, the Tories have spent the summer ramping up the rhetoric on their reckless Protocol Bill. We need to scrap the Bill and begin serious negotiations with the EU to fix the problems the Conservatives created.

It’s heart-breaking that 50 years after Roe. V wade, 36 million women in 26 American states have been stripped of their hard-won rights. We must show women across the US that we feel their pain, and we stand with them in their struggle for the right to choose.

I was incredibly emotional watching the unveiling of the Windrush statue in Waterloo Station yesterday morning. The fight for justice and compensation for the generation of Black Britons who were detained, deported and denied their rights goes on 🤜🏿

It was an honour to speak at #UNDC22 this week in sunny Brighton. @unisontheunion has a special place in my heart because it helped my late mother re-qualify after my father left our home when I was 12. If it wasn’t for Unison and my mum’s hard work, I would not be an MP today.

The situation I've witnessed on the ground in Afghanistan is terrible. Children are close to death from starvation. The port of Odessa must be opened to prevent Putin from starving the world - and the UK should lead the world by convening an emergency food summit with the UN.

Change is here. We are proud to launch Black Equity Organisation. We are ready for a generational and historical shift.
