The coming general election... will be a choice between Conservative climate delayers and deniers, and a Labour Government which can deliver the biggest investment in home-grown clean energy in British history. Well said @KerryMP 🙌

Update in @fishpondsvoice on Cossham birth centre. @damienegan and I have written to Health Secretary. It's particularly frustrating that we're training new midwives in Fishponds, at UWE's Glenside campus, but can't staff Cossham. Retention is a massive problem. @MidwivesRCM .

Having not heard much public discussion of it of late from Labour…Shadow (climate change) minister @KerryMP in the chamber today was pretty explicit about a Labour govt intending to seek a bespoke veterinary deal w/the EU - indeed urging the current one to emulate its approach

An Israeli offensive in Rafah would be catastrophic. It must not go ahead. We need an immediate ceasefire, the immediate release of hostages, and immediate unimpeded aid to Gaza.

With more than a million Palestinian civilians sheltering in Rafah, an Israeli offensive must not go ahead. There must be an immediate ceasefire, the immediate release of all hostages, and unimpeded aid into Gaza that can be delivered regularly, quickly and safely.

Brilliant news, @ClareMoody4PCC will be excellent. Labour win despite Tories attempting to rig it by switching to FPTP. Bristol came through for Clare!

Great to be out in east Bristol this afternoon, with @MarvinJRees @KerryMP , @TomRenhard , @marleybennett , @thomaslydon , and more! Lots of people voting for change today with Labour to restore neighbourhood policing across our area after repeated Tory cuts to police numbers.

The most significant step on Bristol’s pathway to #netzero was not declaring a climate emergency, it was working out how to deliver on it. @MarvinJRees and @CheneyCraig deserve huge credit for @BristolCityLeap , a model which can be replicated across the U.K. and worldwide. 2/2

Good to speak on green investment at #InnovationZero this morning. Lots of interest in @BristolCityLeap model of leveraging in £££s in private sector finance for decarbonisation with the help of a state-owned entity like Vattenfall, or in future, under Labour, GB Energy. 1/2

£75 Peter Kay tickets for £302 £84 DojaCat tickets for £501 £140 Opera House tickets for £1006 £85 Adele tickets for £24,840   Ticket touts are ripping off fans & pricing ordinary people out. Yet the Conservatives do nothing.   A Labour government will act and tackle the touts.

Sorry, George, you're wrong on this one. The average house price in Bristol is now £384,348. We need to build more homes. Four modern, attractive apartment blocks on a brownfield site is surely a welcome development?

President Biden’s budget proposal calls for an increase in capital gains tax up to 44.6%! This would be the highest capital gains tax the US has ever seen. There’s more: it also calls for a 25% tax on unrealized capital gains. It’s only for households worth at least $100…
