It’s always a joy to speak to young people & hear what they have to say about politics and the state of the world. A massive thank you to @sfx6thform.bsky.social for having me - and the students for your thoughtful & important questions.

Great news that the appeal for Battersea Bridge Tower has been dismissed by the Planning Inspector. Thank you to everyone who campaigned on this, it shows that when our community comes together, we can make a real difference and stand up for responsible development.

It was a privilege to be in the House of Lords for the King’s Speech. The Government set out a programme for delivering real change across the country. I look forward to continuing to champion #Battersea and make it an even better place to live, work and visit.

Today is #InternationalNursesDay. I’m proud to support nursing staff in #Battersea and across the world. Thank you for the skill, dedication and professionalism you show every day.

Good to sit down with Minister Bailey to discuss the impact of excessive screen time on young people’s eye health. This has been and under researched and underreported element of the social media debate - I look forward to working with the Govt to address this.

Today we mark VE Day and honour the courage and sacrifice of all those who served in the Second World War. We remember those who gave so much for our freedom and reflect on the values they fought for. Their sacrifices will never be forgotten.

Less than 1 hour until polls close! 🚨 There’s still time to go to your nearest polling station, use all three votes and VOTE LABOUR 🌹

A key tenet of our democracy is the right to vote independently & in secret - but we need to do more to make sure this applies to everyone, including disabled and visually impaired people. It was great to see the variety of resources on offer in #Battersea polling stations

My Small Business Awards are all a bout recognising the contributions of our high-street heroes, the businesses that fuel our local economy while also being part of the community too. It was great to catch-up with Jean-Marc from O Gourmet Libanais & present him with their well-deserved award ⭐

Social media is shaping childhood - that's why we need to make sure children & young people are properly protected online. 📝 I spoke to students in #Battersea to get their views on social media & the Govt's consultation. Link in bio.

More than a third of people with a disability or health condition say they want to work but are held back by a fear of losing their benefits. That’s why the Labour Government is removing that fear with the ‘right to try’ for sick and disabled people. (1/2)

🎉 The Renters' Rights Act has come into force 🎉 This is a vital leap forward for private renters, with this Labour Govt delivering new rights & protections to millions of people across the country.

⏰Only 5 days to go until polls open for the local elections I've been all over #Battersea speaking to people about why a vote for Labour is a vote to ease the cost of living, deliver growth & to continue building a fairer community for all.

Great to tour the lovely The Hyde Park Estate with the @churchofengland.org & @rachelblakemp.bsky.social & learn more about their plans to continue managing the Estate fairly & responsibly.

Saddened to learn of the death of the former Anglican Bishop of Oxford Richard Harries. Richard was a strong voice against injustice, having campaigned for the Church to divest from companies in apartheid South Africa. (1/2)

There has been an appalling attack on two Jewish Londoners in Golders Green. The police have made an arrest and I’d like to thank all the emergency services and heroic volunteers from Hatzola and Shomrim in the area for their swift response to this horrific incident.

@marshadecordova.bsky.social: "World events have moved more quickly than any of us could have expected, so our ambition for the EU relationship needs to change too. At the very least, we need to have a conversation about membership." Read here: https://labourlist.org/2026/04/labour-eu-membership/

The set of global circumstances facing us has changed dramatically since Brexit. It’s right that we respond to this change with bold ideas & brave actions - this starts with having a conversation about our relationship to the EU. Read my piece in full 👇 labourlist.org/2026/04/labo...

Good to meet with @samanthadixonmp.bsky.social to share #Battersea leaseholders' concerns with fire & safety repair costs. As the leasehold system is reformed, I will continue to speak up for existing leaseholders in my constituency who are burdened with unclear, unfair & untransparent charges.

The Israeli Govt's closure of the Holy Sepulchre was an unacceptable act, a direct offence not only to believers but all who respect freedom of worship. (1/2)

Great to do a bit of canvassing in a different part of South London for me - a very sunny #Mitcham & #Morden 🌞 Residents have three fantastic local Labour candidates to vote for on the 7th May 🌹

This is great news which puts children first & will aid better behaviour, attainment & mental wellbeing for children & young people. The Govt must now help schools to fully implement the law with the right resources & support. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I welcome the Govt's renewed Women's Health Strategy, which addresses health inequalities & medical misogyny experienced by far too many women. (1/2)

This fantastic new report from @bestforbritain.org outlines that our future is with our European neighbours. The political moment demands that we be bolder, ensuring that we can share in key decisions & choices that will profoundly shape us. www.bestforbritain.org/push_for_eu_...

My mum fought hard for me to have a mainstream education, giving me opportunities that have helped me get to where I am today. I know this isn't the case for all children with a visual impairment - & it's why I continue to fight for every child to have an inclusive, opportunity-rich education.(1/2)

The Black Heroes Foundation is a fantastic #Battersea organisation, one that recognises and celebrates the vast contributions of black talent through community engagement. I was delighted to celebrate the contributions of black sporting heroes with them at the iconic Clapham Grand ⚽🏅🎾🏀🏉

Knife crime can have a devastating impact on families & our community in #Battersea - it's why the Govt's plan to halve offences in a decade is so important. I'm pleased the Minister committed to visiting some fantastic orgs in #Battersea that are giving young people a chance at a better life

Celebrating the rich heritage and invaluable contribution of London’s Sikh community. Happy Vaisakhi to Sikh Londoners and all those celebrating around the world.

These Labour MPs are saying NO to water companies being rewarded for their abysmal failure. Thank you @marshadecordova.bsky.social @simonforstroud.bsky.social and @nadiawhittomemp.bsky.social ! Has your MP said NO to Thames Water? vist.ly/4xuy4

Since Brexit, untold damage has been unleashed on our trading relationship with the EU. The Govt is right to move forward on dynamic alignment - and it must move fast. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The UK and EU are stronger as trusted partners. As I said at the UK-EU Parliamentary Partnership Assembly in March, global circumstances now necessitate close cooperation with our European neighbours - for democracy, economic security, peace & our shared future.

🚨Only four weeks until the local elections 🚨 I've been out and about in #Battersea, speaking with residents about why only Labour can beat the Tories here. 🌹 Vote Labour on May 7th.

I come from a sporting family so I know first-hand how proper resources develop talent, aspirations & allow young people to flourish. I used International Women's Day #IWD to highlight how important sport is for women & girls - and what more we need to do to widen access. (1/2)

Disabled people shouldn't feel scared of losing social security when they enter work - 'Right to Try' is an important step to alleviating that fear. We must go further, ensuring that employers have the right attitudes & resources to retain disabled employees. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

Israel attacks in Lebanon are horrific. 100s of civilians were killed yesterday. They are breaching international law and acting with impunity. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cl...
