👀 List of Tories supporting one of the key amendments to water down the Renters Reform Bill. What does the (R) by names mean? Registered interests. Looks like landlords turning out in force to scupper a bill that was meant to protect renters' interests, not their own finances

There is serious and credible evidence the Israeli Govt is breaking international law. UK Govt has admitted in court it’s got no response from Israeli Govt to questions it's asked about it, yet just now at

Dowden basically says we just need to trust them? Not good enough.

Renters have been waiting for almost 5 years for the Govt to end no fault evictions. Dowden made out at
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23pmqs
it will happen today - but what he fails to mention is that Tory landlord backbench MPs are still making sure a ban won't actually happen in reality any time soon.

This Govt's total inaction has let down renters, let down leaseholders, and Dowden attacks Labour's record? Is he not aware who's been running the country for the last 14 years?

Sad to hear this. Frank commanded respect on all sides of the House with his kindness, decency and commitment to the common good.

Thank you Alyn, I'd love to know what you think! I believe it matters not just for us here, but for people in Scotland, Wales &amp; NI that we learn to tell progressive stories of a better, fairer, greener England we can all be proud of - even a Scot 😉

The challenge for progressives is to reclaim Englishness and tell bolder and more compelling stories about what it means to be English. My piece in

I read Keir Starmer’s recent article claiming Labour is the true party of English patriotism with rising disbelief, both at his lack of vision for our country, and also his apparent reluctance to even name it. My piece in

Happy St George's Day! This should be a day everyone in England can celebrate together, whatever our backgrounds &amp; whether born here or not. All too often Englishness is hijacked by the Right. My new book,

So it looks like battle over
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23RwandaBill
might be over - govt rejected Lords amendment on safety of Rwanda by 312 to 237, while Labour has accepted a “compromise” on Afghan interpreters which will do precisely *nothing* for those still waiting to get out of Afghanistan

Starmer’s claim that Labour is the true party of English patriotism would be more persuasive if he didn’t muddle English &amp; British throughout whole article. They’re not the same &amp; I explore implications for English identity in my new book
