Brilliant to celebrate 25 years of the Greater London Authority with @london.gov.uk @londonassembly.bsky.social. Huge progress made in driving change for Londoners in that time. Thank you to everyone who has played their part.👏🏾👏🏾

Great energy at @coopparty.party.coop #CoopConf25 as we celebrate the brilliant work of our Community Britain campaign. Loved the conversation about Grassroots Growth and how we deliver change that people can see and feel in their lives through community power and cooperation.

“We all know that the system has not been working for working people for a long time… The need for change is visceral... This is breeding a deep disillusionment with traditional politics.” Miatta Fahnbulleh MP @miattafahnbulleh.bsky.social at @coopparty.party.coop Conference

"a politics of hope and renewal that draws on the power of co-operation" - @miattafahnbulleh.bsky.social on responding to the challenge presented by the right (and the disempowerment felt in every community).

We will always remember them

Today we honour all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. We remember them now and always.

Peckham shows the power of difference. We thrive because of our diversity, not in spite of it. That’s true across Britain - and we must stand united against the hate and division that try to tear our communities apart.

Brilliant news that @lucympowell.bsky.social got on to the ballot for the Labour Deputy Leadership race. I’m backing her because she will be a strong voice for progressive change that can unite our movement.

Delighted to bring young people from Peckham to meet the Policing Minister Diana Johnson- making sure their voices are heard at the heart of Government as we work to make our streets safer and build stronger bridges between police and community.

Homicides at a 10-year low. Not thanks to the loud, divisive noise online- but because real Londoners are putting in the work: the London Violence Reduction Unit, youth club workers & mentors backing young people. The impact speaks for itself.

A proud day for community power, a proud day for the @coopparty.party.coop ✊🏾

A home is who you are - and it's a basic right.

What have Labour done?

Scroll your phone and you’ll see a London of fear and decline. Walk its streets and you’ll find a city where difference is a strength and communities look out for one another. The reality will outlast the fiction.

This is a really welcome step. After years of cuts, investment in young people is starting to return. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Some kids in Peckham are spending their summer climbing back over school fences — just to use a pitch. The only space left is the place they should be having a break from. We need youth clubs that are open, local and funded. My Young Futures campaign is about just that 🧵

That win showed the power of coming together - different backgrounds, one team, one goal. Girls in Peckham saw people like them on that pitch. We need to make sure they’ve got the pitches, the kit, the coaching. Talent is everywhere - and so should opportunity be.

It’s hard to put into words what the spirit of Peckham feels like- but Russell Newell’s photos do just that. Raw, tender, political. The fabric of a community stitched through light, shadow, friendship and fight. www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

🥳

There’s nothing more powerful than a young person discovering what they love. This summer, Holiday Hope is giving thousands across London the space to create, move, express themselves, and just be kids. More here 👉🏿 tinyurl.com/yc6wuuwb

Promise made. Promise delivered ✅ 16 and 17-year-olds will be able to vote in the next general election 🎉 They work, pay tax, shoulder real responsibility—now they have power at the ballot box. A long-overdue step to strengthen and modernise our democracy. #VotesAt16

This is vulnerable, powerful and deeply human - how we talk about poverty shapes how we fight it.

Tired of cold, draughty homes draining your hard-earned wages? Labour’s Warm Homes Plan will upgrade millions of the homes that need it most- cutting bills and keeping families warm 🧵

The expansion of the Warm Home Discount will mean three million more families will receive support for their energy bills at a time that we know people desperately need it.

Under the Conservatives, the energy crisis pushed families to the brink. So no, we won’t take lectures from them now.

Tackling youth violence and creating opportunity must start with communities. Brilliant to have Janet Daby in Peckham to see the award-winning #MyEnds programme- backed by the Mayor’s Violence Reduction Unit. From sports to mentoring, it shows what’s possible when we invest in our young people 💥

We’re driving down bills, breathing life into our communities with cleaner air, and securing our energy for the long term- so people feel the change today and future generations can thrive. That’s the country we are building.

Clinging to fossil fuels is like bailing water from a sinking ship. Delay, denial or distraction from clean power is to fail our children. Most Brits back it- because it cuts bills and puts Britain back on the world stage as climate leaders. Let’s get moving. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Clean power- built by working people, owned by us all. It’s that simple.

Notting Hill Carnival was born from London’s Black and Caribbean communities- resistance through music and joy. Thanks to @london.gov.uk, it goes ahead: louder, safer, prouder. When the usual suspects take aim, they always fail. Carnival is going nowhere. www.standard.co.uk/news/london/...

The Devolution Bill is on its way - giving communities the power to protect, shape, and transform the places they call home. That’s how we build a stronger, fairer country.

✅ Early intervention works I'm delighted that Best Start Family Hubs will build on Sure Start’s legacy with: 👶 Stay-and-play groups 🧠 Parenting & mental health support 🍼 Infant feeding & language help 🏠 Housing & debt advice 🤝 One front door for family services What children in Peckham deserve.

Great to speak to BBC News about my first rollercoaster year as the MP for Peckham ❤️ www.bbc.com/news/article...

For fourteen years, everything we should regard as a vice — shutting people out of housing, stripping away rights, hollowing out communities - was paraded as a virtue. Labour is restoring fairness, community, and care, with a government returned to the service of working people.

✅ Closer. Quicker. Fairer. Labour’s 10-year plan will rebuild our NHS with more staff, modern tech, and community-based care — so everyone gets the help they need, when they need it. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

On Saturday, I had the pleasure of meeting Joshua - an inspiring local business owner from Peckham. His story is remarkable 👇🏿 🧵

'Our energy bills went up 400% but one change reduced them from £10k to £2k' Youngsters at a youth club slash their energy bills after starting solar revolution. This week's #realbritain with @roswynnejones.bsky.social @miattafahnbulleh.bsky.social @mirror.co.uk www.mirror.co.uk/money/househ...

This 👇🏾

The new era of energy will be clean, green and built right here in Britain. We’re backing British workers, British industry and British energy- to bring sustainable jobs and prosperity to every corner of the UK.

Clean power is the opportunity of the 21st century- and we're seizing it with both hands.

The work of @citizensadvice.bsky.social is crucial in supporting customers on what to do when things go wrong with their energy suppliers.   Automatic compensation will now play a part in that - helping working people be better protected & empowered to take action when necessary.

Community energy is breathing new life into communities across the country. Power in local hands means lower bills, cleaner air, and a future we shape together- from the ground up.

Today on Windrush Day, we honour the Windrush generation and the huge contribution they made in rebuilding London. Thank you to everyone in #Peckham from that generation. We will always be grateful.❤️

Support for working people, in every corner of the U.K. 👇🏾

As the nights grow darker and the cold sets in, people should feel they’re not facing it alone. Next winter, Labour is on your side.

This winter, every single household where the billpayer receives means-tested benefits will be eligible for the Warm Home Discount. This expansion will also help our goal to tackle fuel poverty. My statement to the House 🎥

📢 Proud to announce that millions more families will get £150 off their energy bills this winter through the expanded Warm Home Discount. This is what a government that puts people first looks like. 🔗 www.gov.uk/government/n...

Homes are coming 🏠

🏗️This Labour government is serious about building homes The new National Housing Bank will: ✅ Unlock £50bn+ investment ✅ Back small builders ✅ Fund roads, pipes & power ✅ Build more council homes ✅ De-risk development In Peckham, that means real action.

Others deflect and divide. Clean power is how we rebuild Britain’s former industrial towns — not with performance politics, but with real action. A mission powered by and for working people. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
