My statement on behalf of the Women's Parliamentary Labour Party:
We only have a short time to act.
The Government must ensure there are safe and legal routes out for people fleeing the Taliban.
Take action now.

I’m old enough to remember when Diane Abbott became the most hated politician in the UK for drinking a mojito on the tube. Meanwhile the Tories continue to raid the coffers in plain sight and receive a vote of “no confidence from Police Federation and RNLI. Pic ColdWarSteve

There are three problems:
1) removing the plastics in nature
2) managing the plastics in production
3) shifting plastics to biodegradable materials
No countries recycle 100%, not even Japan (84%) or Germany (60%).
The world can't keep pumping out plastics at this rate.

“We are practically inundated with plastics.”
Hundreds of workers, volunteers and officers in Bolivia are trying to clean up the years of pollution that have left Lake Uru Uru covered in plastic

"I haggle for my little portion of happiness" quotation from Rosa Luxemburg, murdered 1919.
Powerful commentary and arguments from Sir David Attenborough and scientists. The time to act is NOW.
Sir David Attenborough: “We can reduce carbon emissions by consuming less or reusing some of our resources. But the biggest saving we could make would be to stop using fossil fuels for our energy...” continued

Strong argument that #DavidAttenborough should be in charge of pretty much everything #PerfectPlanet

This #HolocaustMemorialDay we remember the 6 million jews and other victims of Nazi persecution.
We remember that genocide does not start with genocide.
It starts with the denial of rights, attacks on truth, the rule of law and democracy.
We say #NeverAgain.

Tomorrow, the Conservatives can do the right thing and vote with Labour to #CancelTheCut to Universal Credit.
Their cut will cost six million families £1,000 a year and push 200,000 children into poverty.
It's the worst possible time to strip support from families who need it.

Today, amidst all the debate on details of the trade deal, one fundamental truth remains: that at a time of global insecurity, we’re no longer part of one of history’s greatest & most noble projects -bringing nations together to build peace out of the ruins of war #BrexitReality

Good on @Ed_Miliband for challenging #Marr on his parroting of myth of complete sovereignty.
*Any* agreement involves benefits & obligations - you can’t have one without the other. Shame on @AndrewMarr9 for constant interruption & failure to allow answers to his own questions

Imagine If your child came home from school distraught because of constant #bullying. Then imagine going to see the headteacher and being told it wasn’t bullying, the other kids were just being tough. Sickening #PritiPatel
Bullying at work us an insidious problem that should not be present in our so called enlightened times
PM must not get away with a cover-up - this report should be published immediately
And someone who apparently doesn’t know what bullying is shouldn’t be Home Secretary bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-5…
You have mine, for what it's worth. Appalled by these backhanders and lack of transparency
Hi @carolecadwalla, we are a UK PPE manufacturer being frozen out of supporting the NHS due to Government decisions like these, would be grateful of your support wearwell.co.uk/midlands-manu…

So pleased to be part of this - it’s vital that Government is forced to be transparent about contracts -
particularly since many seem to have to have gone to companies for no better reason than that they’re Tory chums
We're pleased to announce that the High Court has said our claim against the Government over billions of pounds worth of unpublished Covid contracts is "clearly arguable".
We're going to court.
