    It’s real! Excited that the paperback of #AnotherEngland is out on 20 Feb - with a new chapter on how Labour Govt needs to offer real change & tell a more inspiring, compelling story, if it’s to see off the threat posed by the increasingly populist Right penguin.co.uk/books/453710/a…

    This is so disgusting. Imagine the mindset that made this. People are dying. Afraid. Exploited and desperate. The Tories now chasing Reform to the very hard right and it’s sickening. Just when you think they couldn’t sink any lower …

    OMG she’s only gone & done it 😱 @trussliz has put fossil fuel loving, deregulation-obsessed Jacob Rees Mogg in charge of both energy & climate crises -he is not a serious person & this is not a serious Government. Can only hope he wakes up in time to recognise scale of emergency

    I certainly won’t miss Suella Braverman‘s culture war-stoking, protest-bashing draconian legislation when I leave this House...

    Whatever your views on monarchy, arrest of anti-royalist campaigners for exercising right to peaceful protest is chilling. Many of us warned about exactly this when govt rushed thro the illiberal public order bill. This is not what democracy looks like
    The most draconian assault on free speech in living memory is now law

    Body language speaks volumes I’d spent nearly 3 hours watching him in a prone position & it got too much! Plus - how dare he label those of us trying to stop No Deal “undemocratic” His Government has no mandate for this vicious Brexit - and is trying to bypass parliament

    .@BorisJohnson saying he'll "fight on" makes me wince Who does he think he's fighting? People who missed funerals, NHS staff who lived away from family, people who didn't see loved ones in harrowing circumstances And what's he fighting for? Himself Every day he makes it worse

    That was vile from @KwasiKwarteng who actually just said "for too long in this country we've indulged in a fight over redistribution" Indulged? Dealing with inequality is somehow over-generous? Does he think people choose to be poor & face disadvantage? Disgusting #MiniBudget

    The BBC asked me if Trump's actions can be explained by a lack of experience. No, it's because he's a racist bigot. #StandUpToTrump

    Can’t believe what I’ve just heard in this #QueensSpeech Housing: plans dropped Human rights: stripped Conversion therapy ban: half-baked Levelling up: hollowed out Climate emergency: utterly ignored This is a Tory Government with no purpose

    I’ve written to the Speaker to ask that he facilitate a process whereby MPs can hold PM & Chancellor to account for misleading parliament over #partygate. Knowingly to lie to parliament & public & to do so with impunity undermines our democracy - there must be consequences
