RT by @CarolineLucas: Junior doctors are NOT being unreasonable - doesn't it make sense that we train and retain doctors with decent pay, not lose them to the private sector or abroad?

That's why we have to defend the NHS, and why I have absolute solidarity with their action. #JuniorDoctorsStrikes

After three years of parliamentary questions and an FOI nudge, the govt has published the 'business case' for @OfficeforEP

It sets out the many benefits of this important body.

This will come in handy to combat any attempts to weaken the watchdog.

I've tabled a 'reasoned amendment' to try & halt the Govt's plan to require annual oil and gas licencing rounds.
It's unnecessary, won’t bring down bills or deliver energy security, and is economic & environmental madness.

Tories can jeer at me all they like - I will vote against cruel, immoral & unworkable Rwanda Bill. We've already seen right to strike, right to protest & other democratic principles being eroded - now we're seeing flagrant attack on human rights & our courts. This Bill must fall.

RT by @CarolineLucas: UK MP criticises government for inaction during a UN resolution for ceasefire in Gaza

UK Green Party MP Caroline Lucas said the UK’s abstention during a UN vote seeking a ceasefire in Gaza last week is ‘unforgivable’.

She stressed the need for immediate and creative diplomacy given the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where starvation is rife, and violence affects both the Palestinian and Israeli civilian populations. Lucas added that there is no military solution to this conflict, highlighting the necessity of a political resolution to bring an end to the decades of suffering and repeated violence.

Those trying to justify absurd Rwanda Bill overriding our courts & laws in the name of “Parliamentary sovereignty” are wrong. Parliament can only be sovereign *within a functioning legal & constitutional system* where courts can interpret law - which this Bill totally undermines.

I'll vote against Govt's immoral Rwanda Bill as no amendment can improve something rotten to its core. It's a doomed attempt to reassert PM's fragile claim to non-existent authority & sets dangerous precedent for democracy & justice.
