Accountability, integrity, professionalism - no sign of those today, PM. Won't investigate Braverman's Ministerial Code breach, Covid Inquiry threatens Cab Office with legal action for redacting info & Boris still calling the shots while money-making in Vegas #GeneralElectionNow

Iranian citizen #MohammadGhobadlou was arrested protesting for human rights - now Iranian regime could execute him within hours.
I've called Minister urging action, but we need your help. Tweet @Iran_in_UK & urge the embassy to step in & stop this execution #StopExecutionsInIran

Investigation or not there’s an obvious pattern here. It follows admission & 6 day resignation over serious data breach, undisclosed work with the Rwandan Govt (ht @lizziedearden) & false info given by her adviser on speeding. Not fit for office

#Brighton is one of costliest places to rent in the country & my constituents are ripped off, unable to pay bills or even dream of saving. We urgently need rent controls, as in many other countries - local councils need powers to introduce them @ACORN_Brighton @genrentuk @Shelter

Renters Reform Bill is welcome & long overdue but loopholes must be closed, discrimination against renters in receipt of benefits must be outlawed & local authorities must have enforcement powers to target rogue landlords. #Brighton @ACORN_Brighton @genrentuk @Shelter @BHT_Sussex

Ministers can’t just wave a magic wand & expect green jobs to appear, or rely on market alone. We need political will across Whitehall to properly invest in reskilling & retraining workers in green industries of the future. Why won’t Govt get on & do it?

And he has no remorse for any of it. Instead now he’s off raking in millions on speaker tours instead of serving his constituents while we pay his legal bills. He continues to makes a total mockery of standards in public life every day he remains an MP

Great to meet with @PrueLeith in Parliament to support @dignityindying. Over 200 million people worldwide have legal access to some form of safeguarded assisted dying - law reform here in the UK is long overdue, and the blanket ban must end.

Even Minister admits nuclear fusion won't come on stream until 2040 (experts think even later) - yet Govt's own power decarbonisation target is *2035*. We know what works - renewables, interconnectors, batteries, storage. Blind faith in as yet non-existent technologies doesn't.

Great film by @JolyonRubs!👏
It's #ShellAGM today - despite £33bn in global profits last year, they paid *22p per Brit* in UK tax. Shell are climate criminals, polluting our planet & reaping record profits. Govt isn't just letting them off the hook, it's subsidising them further
RT @JolyonRubs: .@Shell made £33bn profit in 2022.
That could pay for the energy bills of HALF of all UK households.
Instead? Shell paid just £15m in tax to the UK. That's just 22p per B…

Staggering complacency from Sunak - claiming #G7 was climate success when in fact it called for expansion of climate-wrecking gas & didn't deliver any loss & damage funding when @oxfam says $8.7tn is owed to Global South for harm caused. This isn't climate leadership, PM @oxfamgb
