We definitely need more women’s voices at all levels of government. Hoping to be sat there with you before too long Wendy.

Wendy Chamberlain MP: I am the 503rd woman MP ever elected. There have only ever been 561 women MPs elected and today we only make up 35% of the Commons.
Ahead of the 95th anniversary of the Representation of the People Act on Sunday, we need more women selected and elected at the next election. https://t.co/wRw4l4F9q0

This damning report should be the final nail in the coffin for Boris Johnson’s political career.
The Conservatives are so mired in sleaze and chaos that they are totally failing to tackle the problems facing the country, from the NHS crisis to the cost of living. https://t.co/xmwvqwBxRf

So pleased to see the committee of which I used to be a part succeeded in keeping the EU’s nature restoration law alive.
Thank you to all my former @RenewEurope colleagues, and others, who opposed this attempt by the right of centre EPP group.

Jack Parrock: Massive cheers from half of the European Parliament's ENVI committee who managed to get exactly the 44 of 88 votes needed to prevent an EPP-led plan to take the EU's Nature Restoration Law off the table.
The proposal survives.

When Boris Johnson was a journalist, he got fired twice for lying.
So he entered politics, where he literally lied to Queen & country, and then got fired AGAIN for lying...
And the Daily Mail thought:
"That's EXACTLY the kind of journalist we want informing our readers". https://t.co/TyE8Gggaap

So excited that @sarahdykeLD will finally have the chance to fight this by-election - not before time!
Can’t wait to get out on the campaign trail with her and make sure the constituents of Somerton and Frome have an MP who respects them.
She will make an outstanding MP.

So many lies. Told by people who knew it was a fantasy. Seven years on it’s clear Brexit has been an utter failure.
“You were told that it would be pain-free. You were told that it would all be upsides, no downsides.” Well said Alastair.

Nine out of ten dentists in this constituency are not taking on new NHS patients - even children.
