    As Hippodrome is painstakingly brought back to life, it’s such a powerful symbol of hope & renewal. And after such a difficult year for so many, we need those qualities more than ever Happy Christmas to all - and here’s to active hope & renewal in 2022

    Such sad news this morning - the world has lost a shining star of hope & humanity - but his spirit will live on “If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor" RIP Desmond Tutu

    Joining 50 MPs & peers to demand Government urgently increase unacceptable sick pay levels. It’s a scandal that workers are still denied basic protections - people must be able to afford to self isolate to protect public health & help slow spread of virus

    Let me get this right... 1⃣ wrongly told asylum seekers they broke the law when they hadn't 2⃣ told they had no case, asylum seekers pleaded guilty & went to prison 3⃣ Govt's response is to change the law to match their misunderstanding 🤦

    I wanted to find somewhere special to film my end-of-year message and found the perfect place: a powerful symbol of time passing, of things changing and now of hope & renewal Any guesses where I am? (Clue: it's in my constituency)

    The advice from scientific advisors on Covid has always been *act early & strongly to avoid worse impacts later* Boris Johnson's dangerous dithering is putting lives at risk. Public health can't be held hostage to his fear of his own backbench MPs

    . fails to give any reassurance to businesses struggling with lockdown by stealth. They need support & certainty - & hearing Chancellor is “keeping it under review” hardly gives confidence. We urgently need package of ongoing VAT & biz rate reductions, loans etc
