30 Jun 2026MP & Parliamentsarcastic“Lads. It’s not all about you.”↗
30 Jun 2026MP & Parliamentsarcastic“www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/... today @andyburnham.bsky.social met the women’s PLP to discuss how women are sidelined and ignored and overlooked for top jobs. I thought this article might be about those women. But no. Of course not. 🤦‍♀️”↗
20 Jun 2026Energy & Net Zeromeasured“I spoke to the BBC about why we need a staged transition to restore hope while maintaining stability and the PM shld announce that, so he can have both dignity and a legacy.”↗
18 Jun 2026Technology & Digitalmeasured“Thank you. It’s a start.”↗
18 Jun 2026Culture & Communitymeasured“I’m not arguing to retain use of a data point from 60 years ago. I’m saying new research would help to back up women’s lived experience of being both invisible when we have an opinion and “over represented” because men “notice” us when we are in spaces they are used to having all to themselves.”↗
18 Jun 2026Culture & Communitymeasured“It’s not pointless if you are trying to fight the patriarchy. We have a right to be heard & in the room. We deserve not to be perceived as a novelty. We have a right to have our lived experience backed up by data. It’s not “unknowable” to us.”↗
13 Jun 2026Othermeasured“On defence, welfare and energy our targets are missing the point and making good outcomes harder to achieve.”↗
13 Jun 2026Health & NHSmeasured“labourlist.org/2026/06/capa... pleased to have written this with my good friend @graemedowniemp.bsky.social about focusing on outcomes over targets.”↗
12 Jun 2026Energy & Net Zeromeasured“www.politicshome.com/opinion/arti... I wrote this two months ago. The need for global cooperation on energy to reduce dependence on rogue states and fossil fuels is becoming more and more urgent.”↗
7 Apr 2026Energy & Net Zeromeasured“I spoke to Evan Davies on PM yesterday about the question of whether we should grant licences to drill for more oil and gas in the North Sea.”↗
5 Apr 2026Energy & Net Zeromeasured“This is important. We have to level with the British public and show leadership globally.”↗
3 Apr 2026Energy & Net Zeromeasured“I spoke to @theguardian.com @rowenamason.bsky.social about why the uk must use its convening power to tackle the global energy crisis www.theguardian.com/politics/202...”↗
3 Apr 2026Energy & Net Zeromeasured“I spoke to @theguardian.com @rowenamason.bsky.social about why the uk just use its convening power to tackle the global energy crisis www.theguardian.com/politics/202...”↗
2 Apr 2026Energy & Net Zeromeasured“My colleague Uma Kamaran is right.”↗
2 Apr 2026Energy & Net Zeromeasured“For the avoidance of doubt, those who are arguing for “drill baby drill” really don’t get the seriousness of the situation. We should not be falling back on technologies that damage us, our economy and our future, but rather be embracing increasingly cheap and reliable home grown renewable energy.”↗
