Glad that @UKLabour will take rail services into public ownership. As a regular train user, I have found more regular delays, cancellations and cuts in services resulting in over crowded trains with too often passengers having to stand. This was today at Euston

How will @UKLabour tackle hate crime? @Keir_Starmer @AngelaRayner @AnnelieseDodds @YvetteCooperMP - Muslim women are most vulnerable to hate crime. Here is an example! Perpetrators are most likely to be white male according to data #Islamophobia
URGENT: Help @metpolice identify this sick racist earlier today in Romford! WATCH as this coward physically threatens and subjects a group of women with his vile, horrific, racist and Islamophobic slurs. We stand with them in solidarity! 📢 Internet, please do your thing! 🚨

The @AngelaRayner saga. I get it. Attack dog attacked. Karma. But really? A police investigation into whether she was registered at wrong address? Is that it? Not that she voted twice, no act of personation. It seems petty beyond belief and a total waste of police time

Could the death of Kulsuma Akter have been prevented? An urgent inquiry is needed about the elevated domestic homicide rates of Black, Asian and minority ethnic women. They make up 22% but minority communities are 18% of population. Our press release:

A reminder to those keen to privatise the NHS, hand it to profiteering corporations. Abuse is taking place in 99% of care homes across England as profit motive is destroying care. NHS is still struggling with legacy of PFI, don't hand it to vultures.

I wish a blessed Eid al-Fitr to all Muslims celebrating today. At the start of Ramadan, I had the joy of attending an iftar at Canterbury Mosque. I was met with such hospitality and kindness – things that we so often encounter in Muslim communities across the UK. Our society is

@SkyNews Does the UK’s position go against the legal advice given to government? Given the devastating death toll on Palestinians and the ongoing ICJ case the British public have a right to know whether our government is acting lawfully.

What an immensely powerful video showing Jewish volunteers from Tag Meir waiting with dates to hand out to Muslim worshippers in Jerusalem as you can hear the familiar chords of prayers in the background. #Ramadan

What an utter disgrace you are @HTempestPhoto for suggesting school photos that exclude children with complex needs - your photography contract should be cancelled. Your actions breach the Equality Act 😡
