Who does he work for?

I was appalled to hear of the horrific incident on a train near Huntingdon last night.

All of my thoughts are with those affected, especially the victims and their loved ones.

I'm very grateful to the emergency services for their response.

Reform say they stand up for the working class - but they never have.

They’ve voted to block the Employment Rights Bill again and again.

It’s Labour on the side of workers: creating jobs, ending zero-hours contracts, and protecting workers from unfair dismissal from day one.

It was brilliant to be at Abbey Leisure Complex yesterday to celebrate the official opening of the new 3G pitch. We know just how important sports and exercise can be in helping people to lead a happy, healthy life. We're very grateful to the Football Foundation for their generous support.

As Yom Kippur draws to a close, many of our Jewish friends and neighbours will be turning their phones on to the news of the antisemitic attack in Manchester.

We condemn this terrible act, and send our solidarity and love to all members of our Jewish community in Cambridge and across the UK.

Lovely to attend the Cambridge Street Pastors AGM at St Andrew's Church last night and hear about the fantastic work that they do to keep people safe at night in the city centre.

It was lovely to attend the official opening of the Cherry Hinton Hub this morning - it's taken a fantastic effort by so many in the local community over so many years to get this off the ground, and I'm proud that the City Council has put £1.6m behind this great community project.

Local government is being reorganised, giving us a chance to simplify governance structures in our area. We think a unitary council covering Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire is the best option for local residents - here's why:

Navigating the Cambridge rental market is hard, and far more so if you're newly arrived in the UK or English isn't your first language. This book reports on a project by @pomocorguk.bsky.social to understand the experiences of migrants trying to find a home in Cambridge.

Farage said today he would said women refugees back to the Taliban.
What a grotesque loss of touch with the whole idea of ‘right’.

The Taliban’s strict command about ‘no skin contact between women and unrelated men’ means rescuers leave injured but surviving women under earthquake rubble, even as they retrieve the dead first.
