I have spoken loudly, proudly and often against UK complicity in the ongoing genocide, and have fought hard for the survival, liberation and right to return of all Palestinian people. I will continue to do so as MP for Manchester Withington: vm.tiktok.com/ZGeqthmFh/ – at Withington, England

"This is a cause I feel prepared and obligated to die for."
UK activist Lizzie Greenwood has reached day 20 of a grueling hunger strike, protesting the government's support for Israel's war machine.
Lizzie is demanding that the UK ends its arms trade with Israel, and says her hunger strike is a final resort.

She said she will eat if she needs to, but only 250 calories a day, which is all Palestinians are allowed.

Heartbroken to learn of the death of one of my favourite teachers, Bev Hodgkinson. She was a kind, compassionate, force of nature. And the first person who told me I should go into politics. She inspired and supported so much of who I am (the parts I am most proud of) @CCHSG_ – at Manchester, England
"Defence" is a priority for only 15% of voters... yet we spend £12,000 a minute on nuclear weapons we don't use. And Tories, Labour & Lib Dems all advocate for *even more* spending in this already overfunded area. Rather than in our vital UK services. Make it make sense...!? – at Manchester, England
42 of my constituents have pledged to only support candidates who prioritise a healthy planet - via VoteClimate. I support them in their call for an urgent discussion on climate protection/solutions & to move toward a greener national economy. Let's make a plan. ASAP. – at Manchester, England
This unfortunately tracks with absolutely all the abuse & trolling myself & members of my family have received from self-proclaimed Reform members & supporters. So sad that some people co-opt & manipulate the real concerns & needs of working people for their own hateful agendas – at Manchester, England
🚨 NEW: The Reform candidate for West Ham and Beckton has defected to the Tories, claiming the “vast majority” of her fellow candidates are “racist, misogynistic and bigoted”

I am heartbroken and apalled that this is what happens when people stand up and fight for what they believe in: a better world. Whether you agree with someone's politics or not... the anger and *hatred* this takes... is horrifying
I'm stunned to report that our candidate in Sutton Coldfield has had to suspend his campaigning after his canvassers were attacked by men with baseball bats and machetes leaving some, including his son, in hospital. @WMPolice @AP @AndrewmitchMP

A huge number of my constituents have emailed me about my community's rising dependence on food banks. It's an issue I take very seriously - one that represents a complete failing of our current government. Here is my response to one of them.
