It was an honour to hear from veteran war surgeon
https://nitter.cz/GhassanAbuSitt1
about his harrowing account of the 43 days he spent in Gaza treating critically wounded Palestinians including young children.
Gaza's healthcare system has completely collapsed, we need a resolution now.

Last month, I spoke to
https://nitter.cz/The_NewArab
about my recent decision to step down from the frontbench in support of a ceasefire in Gaza, my journey in politics and how our country's strength lies in our diverse, interconnected communities 👇

RT by @Afzal4Gorton: 🚨BREAKING: The Tories have just announced another brutal bumper rise in rail fares.

With passengers facing record delays and cancellations and delays, this is an insult to millions.

Labour will reform our broken railways and finally put passengers first.

Earlier this month I had the opportunity to talk to
https://nitter.cz/BBCRadioManc
about COP28 and the importance of establishing a Loss and Damage Fund.
The agreements made at COP28 are an important start, but we all must go further for true climate justice.

The indiscriminate targeting of civilians by Israeli airstrikes has led to generations of Palestinian families being wiped out.
With news of horror coming from Gaza each day, time is running out. The Government needs to be aware of the consequences of its complacency 👇

Palestinians are facing collective punishment, starvation & lack of access to medicine. The UK Government must step up push for an urgent ceasefire.
We either care about upholding human rights for everyone - including Palestinians - or we don't care about human rights at all.

The situation in Gaza is beyond catastrophic. Since the UN last voted against a ceasefire, hundreds more have been killed.
I hope the UK finally does the right thing and joins the rest of the world in voting for a

Carers are vital for supporting families, which is why its important their voices are heard and Carers UK have a handy guide to help:

RT by @Afzal4Gorton: The Baroness Mone crisis gets ever murkier for the Tories with an admission that lies were told to the public, an ongoing NCA investigation and tens of millions of taxpayers’ money at stake.

I’ve written to Michael Gove demanding he comes to Parliament to face scrutiny.

Great to speak with
https://nitter.cz/guidedogs
about their campaign to crackdown on pavement parking, an issue I petitioned the Government to act on earlier this year.
Vehicles obstructing footpaths and pathways cause huge difficulties for people with a vision impairment and more must be done.

The day before we commemorated the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the UK abstained on a crucial vote at the UN Security Council which would have secured a ceasefire in Gaza.
The UK Government doesn't think Palestinians deserve human rights too.

We should all be entitled to breathe clean air. Labour has a plan to make this everyone's legal right. Why won't the Government support this?
