97 years ago today, women finally won equal voting rights.
The Dearsley Window, tucked away in Parliament, honours the suffragettes and the fight they led.
Their struggle changed history but the fight for equality isn’t over

This Has Gone Beyond Abuse – It’s Now Dangerous. If It Doesn’t Stop, How Will It End?
In 2017, I shared a post by accident, a genuine mistake, deleted within minutes. Yet for 8 years, hate-fuelled lies and misinformation have been spread relentlessly, with no end in sight. (1)

I welcome the government’s decision to sanction Ben Gvir and Smotrich, who have long advocated for genocidal actions in Gaza.
But substantially more action is needed to ensure there is still a Palestine left to recognise, and that must start with the immediate recognition of Palestine.

Last week, I had the privilege of visiting Indonesia 🇮🇩 as Britain’s Trade Envoy to Indonesia and ASEAN.
With ASEAN’s combined GDP at $3.2 trillion, boosting trade here is a powerful way to showcase the potential of Global Britain. 🇬🇧

We welcome the govt’s announcement of coordinated and targeted sanctions against extremist Israeli ministers.
We must now go further to affect change by immediately recognising the State of Palestine & galvanising international partners to do the same.

It is important MPs listen to those who would have to implement the assisted dying Bill. Whatever our position on the principle, MPs must ask ourselves whether this Bill will cause more harm than good. This letter from senior doctors sets out why we should vote against this Bill.

More than 1,000 doctors have written to MPs urging them to vote against the assisted dying bill, calling it a "real threat to both patients and the medical workforce".

Delighted at the news that Bradford Royal Infirmary 🏥, St Luke’s Hospital 🏥 & Lynfield Mount Hospital 🏥 have received a major funding boost 📈 to improve local healthcare ✅.
For years, Bradford faced underinvestment and neglect. It's time for a government that invests in our local health service ✅.

As someone who has experienced both sides of the foster care journey — growing up in foster care and later becoming a foster carer — I know firsthand how vital a loving and stable home is for a child’s future.

As the Assisted Dying Bill currently stands, we are at risk of heading toward a Horizon-style scandal in the making.
My amendments aim to ensure that individuals with eating disorders are not pushed towards assisted death when what they truly need is the care and support they deserve.

Today I raised serious concerns about whistleblowing at Bradford NHS Trust with the Health Secretary, including the landmark ruling in favour of Dr Max McLean, the former Chair. I look forward to discussing this further with the Health Minister soon.
