9 Jun 2026Culture & Communitymeasured“Today, @commonswec.parliament.uk will be questioning the EHRC on the new code of practice. It's important we remind ourselves that trans people across the country are simply trying to exist freely. I am very grateful to those in Luton North who have been kind enough to share their stories with me.”↗
6 Jun 2026Culture & Communitycelebratory“Lovely Stopsley Community Garden. They’ve opened up the centre due to the weather but the mood is sunny inside and out! There are plenty of activities for big and small children. The knit and natter group are raising funds for Keech Hospice. Thanks to all the fab volunteers who put today on. 🌻”↗
5 Jun 2026Culture & Communitymeasured“From the Lionesses to the Red Roses, women's sport shows that we can build inclusive spaces for LGBT+ sportspeople. But unlike straight athletes, they risk abuse just for loving their partner. There are still no out PL footballers. We should celebrate progress made - but there is lots still to do.”↗
5 Jun 2026Culture & Communityempathetic“Our @commonswec.parliament.uk inquiry into women's participation in sports has heard some very worrying testimony - but sadly not surprising for women working in sports. This inquiry looks into the barriers that stop women and girls entering sports as coaches, referees, broadcasters and more.”↗
4 Jun 2026Othermeasured“Absolutely spot on from @andyburnham.bsky.social. None of us want to see the politics of division being exported from the US. We can’t carry on down this path. We must stop the poison dripping into our society. Our country is better than that. We need our govt to reflect that. #BBCQT”↗
4 Jun 2026Culture & Communitymeasured“🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ You can watch my full speech from the Pride Month debate here: youtu.be/3oN_6B5DGkE”↗
4 Jun 2026Culture & Communitymeasured“This year, Pride is more protest than party. Today I again raised my concerns - if these questions and others are not answered adequately by the chair of the EHRC when she comes before @commonswec.parliament.uk next week, I will be signing the fatal motion on the code of practice.”↗
2 Jun 2026Crime & Policingempathetic“My thoughts are with Henry Nowak’s family and loved ones. It is their words we need to take notice of, not those wishing to exploit the horrific murder of a young man. Every effort must be made to learn from any failings and work together to stop more young lives being taken by knives and violence.”↗
2 Jun 2026MP & Parliamentangry“Nigel Farage is so desperate to win back the approval of his overseas overlords, Donald Trump and Elon Musk, that he needs to show he is happy to embrace blatant and unapologetic racism. Rhetoric like this is dangerous and should have no place in British politics”↗
1 Jun 2026Otherangry“This is a miserable start to Pride month. All indicators show that the EHRC’s new code of practice will contribute to the erosion of LGBT rights in the UK. Ministers and the EHRC must show how they will protect trans people and those who don’t conform to gender stereotypes.”↗
27 May 2026Otherangry“It is clear Elon Musk has a new toy to play politics with in the UK. Foreign money from the richest man in the world, openly seeking the destruction of our democracy, should be nowhere near UK politics.”↗
27 May 2026Crime & Policingangry“Gisèle Pelicot speaks for all of us - no justice was delivered for the victims of these appalling, life-changing crimes. This case is rightly being reviewed, but in a time where only 1-3% of reported rape cases end in conviction, we cannot stop challenging the flaws in our legal system.”↗
21 May 2026Defence & Securityangry““Far-right figure Itamar Ben-Gvir shares footage of himself taunting bound international detainees“ Horrific behavior. And not for the first time from him. This deserves international condemnation and full accountability. www.theguardian.com/news/video/2...”↗
21 May 2026Culture & Communitymeasured“Organisations which also want to remain trans-inclusive need to receive support on how to do so within the law. In a similar way, those that wish to exclude trans men and women from their spaces also need to know how to do so without breaching individual rights to privacy. (6/7)”↗
21 May 2026Social Careempathetic“The burden lies with Government to explain how it will support our trans community who are vulnerable to hatred and humiliation at work, in education, in leisure activities and public events. (5/7)”↗
21 May 2026MP & Parliamentmeasured“We will be asking the Chair of the EHRC and the Minister for Women & Equalities to answer questions on the revised Code of Practice at forthcoming Women and Equalities Select Committee meetings. These will take place as soon as possible. (4/7)”↗
21 May 2026Immigrationmeasured“We must see improvements in how Government departments work with agencies to deliver decisions like this quicker. (3/7)”↗
21 May 2026Otherempathetic“For too many though, the damage done to them and to their families in this interim period has been devastating and needless. I fear with expected legal challenges, this hellish limbo will continue. (2/7)”↗
21 May 2026Culture & Communityempathetic“Today’s EHRC Code of Practice is overdue and the devil is in the detail and delivery. I first want to extend my support and understanding to trans people who have spent far too long in uncertainty, waiting for confirmation on how they will be able to live out their daily lives in public. 🧵 (1/7)”↗
20 May 2026Health & NHSmeasured“BBL practitioner admits procedures were not safe in court hearing. This is why our select committee report recommended that liquid BBLs on the high street should be banned immediately. There is no reason for Ministers to delay a ban. @commonswec.parliament.uk www.itv.com/news/2026-05...”↗
20 May 2026Technology & Digitalmeasured“Not sure you’ve seen my earlier work…also my consistent lobbying of the government to stop using x as official comms. I also recently led the Women & Equalities committee to be the first parliamentary body to come off the platform. bsky.app/profile/sara...”↗
20 May 2026Technology & Digitalangry“Ofcom has to get a grip of the dangerous and growing threat that online hate speech is posing to our democracy and our communities. The longer X is allowed to break our laws with impunity, the more damage will be done.”↗
18 May 2026Cost of Livingdefensive“If you’re one of the people having to pay up to £800 for a driving test, this is a huge difference and no sticking plaster to them.”↗
18 May 2026Transportcelebratory“This was a massive problem for learner drivers in Luton. A Labour government has fixed what the Tories turned a blind eye to. #notallthesame www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...”↗
16 May 2026Crime & Policingmeasured“Two in five arrested for the summer’s UK riots had been reported for domestic abuse. Police data shows overlap between public violent disorder + domestic abuse. I wonder what the stat will be today? Our country is so much better than Yaxely Lennon and his crew. The majority of us love, not hate🫶”↗
15 May 2026MP & Parliamentmeasured“No one wants the chaos of the last decade of British politics - but we must be honest that the current leadership isn't working. We need a Labour govt and leader that can get on with the job, make the progress we all need to see and be the positive alternative - a voice for hope in our country.”↗
15 May 2026MP & Parliamentmeasured“Despite what the caption/pic looks like, both Gordon and I agreed on a lot. This is bigger than one person or even one party. We both agree Andy Burnham should be allowed to stand in Makerfield and that we want a Labour government that best serves our country. youtu.be/ns8Cb3xeQ2k?...”↗
13 May 2026Transportcelebratory“From yesterday, new rules came in that mean now only learner drivers could book tests - and they can only be changed twice. This will help bring down waiting times and ensure scammers can't exploit our system.”↗
13 May 2026Transportmeasured“🚗 Taking action on driving tests Lots of constituents contact me about long wait times and unfair markups on driving tests - I raised the issue a few months ago in Parliament.”↗
12 May 2026Culture & Communitycelebratory“It was brilliant to join veterans & their families to open the new Veterans and Families Hub at the Royal British Legion in Luton. From this week, it will be open every Monday, 11-4pm. I can’t wait to see this go from strength to strength and well done to everyone involved in getting this going.”↗
