I welcome the Government's recent changes to Carer's Allowances.
But they must go further and act faster to end this injustice.
Today marks the 76th anniversary of joining the ECHR.
The Conservatives and Reform want to us to leave. They cannot be trusted to protect our rights.
@mpmwilko explains why.
There she goes again - reopening the Brexit debate.
What @KemiBadenoch won’t tell you is that her policy of leaving the ECHR would rip up her party’s Brexit deal.
Is it possible that the Conservatives don’t understand their consequences of their own policy?

The US elections show that right-wing populism can be defeated. We must not let Trump's brand of toxic, divisive politics take root here in the UK.
That is Trump's America, we can't let it become Farage's Britain.

Kemi Badenoch once said that Trump would be a “force for good”.
Don’t forget what she really thinks of the President. 👇
Americans rejected Trump’s politics of division and hate.
We must do the same with Reform.
Life comes at you fast.
Today finally marks an injustice that has been hard fought by brilliant campaigners like @AndrewofSussex working with MPs like @EdwardJDavey and @JohnMilneLD. Pleased to have played a small part in driving this change.

For anyone who believes in decency, respect and the rule of law, it feels good to see the American people so comprehensively reject Donald Trump’s politics of hate, division and economic harm.
Donald Trump urged the American voters to imagine he was on the ballot. They did and they rejected him in state after state. This is a crushing defeat.
Today’s US midterms aren’t an isolated event across the Atlantic.
That politics is taking root here with Nigel Farage’s Reform party, stoking anger and division. It is the worst of Trump’s America; we must never let it become Farage’s Britain.

Big news today!
It’s 6 years since I first spoke about Mikey at PMQs – a young disabled man locked out of the money in his own Child Trust Fund.
Now after years of campaigning alongside Mikey’s dad and his MP John Milne, we’ve forced the government to change the law.

The government could go so much further by pulling on the biggest growth lever possible and joining the single market as part of a broader Growth and Defence Partnership.
Fixing our broken relationship with Europe is one of the most powerful ways to jump-start our economy and that’s why ministers must drop their self-imposed red lines immediately.

Deal with EU at summit this month could boost size of UK economy by 0.4%, updated Treasury analysis says
Andy Burnham tells me this is "a number that you cannot ignore"
The Liberal Democrats are calling for closer ties with Europe, fewer trade barriers and lower costs.
It's time for the Prime Minister to drop his red lines and have an honest conversation about our future with Europe.

Thanks to great work from our MPs and Lords, disabled people now have a fairer child trust fund system.
@JohnMilneLD explains what this win actually means.
We have to rebuild trust with Europe. That trust was broken by the Conservatives.
The Liberal Democrats have always said Britain's best future lies back at the heart of Europe.
