A question the Tories are avoiding:

Should Abramovich’s money from the Chelsea sale go to Ukraine?

Their silence would be shocking, if you didn’t know their Shadow Attorney General was also Roman Abramovich’s lawyer!

Elon Musk needs to understand that using AI to strip women without their consent is sexual assault designed to degrade and humiliate.

He has the power to stop his own product from doing this - and must act now.

In this interview with Geri Scott at The Times I explore the number of missed opportunities the NHS has to identify and refer victims of domestic abuse and sexual violence to specialist services.

“We only do bones here” needs to become a sentiment of the past.

Absolutely brilliant news that the Government has announced it will ban nudification apps and other tools designed to create non-consensual intimate images. This is an issue I’ve been raising since last year and it’s great Labour is delivering on this to protect women and girls!

This investment will change lives.

It'll go towards bespoke, calming spaces to help children with additional needs get the support they need at a good, local school on their doorstep.

Labour is building schools where every child can achieve and thrive.

The Tories say that all parties want to tackle child poverty.

Sadly, it's not true. Only Labour have taken action.

We'll drive the largest reduction of child poverty within a single Parliament.

Deeds, not words.

That means strong foundations, plus new skills like spotting fake news online and understanding money, and access to arts and sport.
