Delighted and proud to be joining the Government as a whip in @UKHouseofLords. Can't wait to help drive forward Labour’s plan for change, including important Bills coming up in the Lords on improving our schools, making work fairer and building more homes and infrastructure.

We all lose out if we surrender our flag to the far right. Our flags must stand for the diversity of our communities. For what it’s worth, I’d question some of Maskell’s ‘left-wing’ values. She’s repeatedly opposed abortion rights.

EXCL: Left-wing MP Rachel Maskell said her "stomach churned" when Labour members waved St George's flags during Sir Keir Starmer's conference speech. The suspended Labour MP also described flags being put up in streets as "tatty bits of cloth" that should be taken down. She…

Some clear examples from @UJS_UK here of the toxicity Jewish students have to live with on campus. This isn't normal, nor tolerable. @officestudents is right to warn it will take action against Unis that don't ‘take steps to protect’ Jewish students from antisemitic harassment

Following unacceptable glorification of Hamas atrocities on campus this week, UJS is today launching our “Stand Against Terror” campaign. Read more in @UJS_PRES Louis’s piece in @thetimes below.

"We will be prepared to act." Arif Ahmed, freedom of speech director at the Office for Students, says the body will take action against universities that do not ‘take steps to protect’ Jewish students from antisemitic harassment. Listen to Political Thinking on @BBCSounds


Thank you to @CST_UK and their volunteers for all you do to keep my community safe. Gratitude does cost nothing, but if you want to show support, please donate to them: cst.org.uk/donate-now I hope one day all this security will no longer be needed; until then, thank you.

'Don’t just walk by the people who help keep us safe. This week – next week – every week – show them that you appreciate them. Gratitude costs nothing – but it can mean everything.' Thank you to our CST security volunteers.

As a Palestinian who refuses to parrot our leadership’s lies, I have to say it bluntly: Telling Mizrahi Jews - Jews from Iraq, Yemen, Egypt, Morocco, Syria, and the rest of the Arab world, that they are doing “ethnic cleansing” to us is the gaslight of the century. Let’s start…

💥Ex hostage Adina Moshe describes chat in Gaza with pal Haim Perry, who correctly prophesied– to the day– that it would take Netanyahu 2 years to free hostages. Perry, a father of 5, artist & peace activist was executed on Feb 14, 2024, by Hamas captors as IDF troops approached.

And so any pretence that this far left parasitic corpuscle, set up in bad faith purely to make a bad leader look palatable, ever had any connection with real Labour values disappears. No one should be surprised. Fewer should care.

JVL, founded in 2017 by Jewish Labour Party members backing Jeremy Corbyn, is Jewish Voice for Labour no longer. Members - of which there are still a few - have now adopted the new name of Jewish Voice for Liberation, marking a decisive break with Labour.

We are filled with hope for the possibility of a ceasefire in Gaza and the speedy of the return of the 48 hostages still held by Hamas. We pray for a peaceful future for all in Middle East.

Proud to have voted for @bphillipsonMP to be Labour's next Deputy Leader. She'll be a strong voice for campaigning in the Party and around the Cabinet table; her policies as Education Secretary are in the best progressive tradition, giving kids the best start in life.

Note to journalists covering the wonderful news about the Gaza ceasefire: the war didn't start on 7th October 2023. That's the day when Israel was attacked, innocent Israelis were murdered, raped and taken hostage. Getting this distinction right matters. Or at least it should.
