Don't forget the Tories made it deliberately more difficult for people to cast their votes today by bringing in a new requirement for photo ID - please remember to take it with you and have your say! And if you do have a dog, take them with you too 🐶

Sickened

have posted a promotional video about detaining asylum seekers to send to an unsafe country, Rwanda. This is tantamount to state-sponsored human trafficking &amp; it's being done the day before elections for party political purposes.
We are better than this.

This was a very serious question about a senior UK politician getting death threats through groups set up and promoted by Tory staffers. The PM didn't even bother to give it a proper response. He pledged to stand up to extremists - but apparently not if they're in his own party.

Sunak was rightly laughed at during
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23PMQs
when he had gall to actually say "we can't have cherry picking of important international agreements" - oblivious to the irony he's been doing exactly that with the immoral, illegal Safety of Rwanda Act he made law last week.

With Netanyahu looking set to launch imminent attack on Rafah in defiance of international humanitarian law, I challenged PM to finally find moral backbone to ban arms exports &amp; end UK complicity in crimes vs humanity. But clearly not. How much more suffering will it take?

It's important that reports like this one from
https://nitter.privacydev.net/BBCNews
tell people how much the Rwanda scheme is actually costing us. It's not £3k. Eg.
https://nitter.privacydev.net/IPPR
estimates £228k. People deserve to know how much extra this Government is willing to pay to be this cruel.

After all the corruption we've seen from the Tory party and everything they've done to bring our NHS to its knees, Sunak dares to suggest it's the sick who can't work who are the problem? The very people he and his party have let down so badly? The sheer nerve of it.

For 2nd time this week, I just voted to back the Lords amendments to the Govt's repugnant

. Lost again. But there's no defending it - it's inhumane, illegal &amp; ineffective all in one. Now back to Lords to keep up fight to lessen the sheer cruelty of this shameful bill.

How insular this country has become. As Gaza starves and tensions in Middle East threaten to spill over, there's not a mention from Sunak and Starmer, who are more interested in trading jibes over Truss and Rayner.

New minister, same disastrous policy on oil and gas. Approving new fields like Rosebank is not only terrible for UK efforts on climate change, it does absolutely nothing to improve our energy security either.

Clean air should be a human right for everyone - but clearly it's a right this Government doesn't think people in the UK deserve. Rather than pass urgently needed legislation to save lives and clean up our dirty, toxic air, they actively rescind funding for first time in 27 years

I condemn Iranian attack on Israel but v worried PM is pitching us into war alongside an Israeli Govt which has breached international law &amp; escalated tensions by bombing Iranian embassy. If UK serious about de-escalation, it must call for an immediate bilateral ceasefire in Gaza

It is so frustrating that this fossil fuel loving Govt has been moving at snail pace on solar. The untapped potential just from our rooftops is huge - up to 117GW. But last year total solar capacity rose just 1GW to 15.3GW. Great report from

Radical right-wing charities on Tufton Street, like the Global Warming Policy Foundation, are constantly spreading harmful climate change disinformation &amp; denial. What does the Charity Commission do to stop them? Nothing. So we're taking them to court 👇
