📣 DELIVERED! Thousands signed my petition for a windfall tax on bank super-profits. I’ve now presented it in Parliament. Banks are making billions extra from the same higher interest rates driving up your mortgages and rents. Let’s tax those profits and bail out the people!

I have been detained by Israeli security forces all day. Along with with MPs @labourlewis, @larabirdsnp, MSP Kate Nevans, former MP @SamTarry and campaigners from across the world, we were turned back because they don’t want anyone seeing their ethnic cleansing.

Our Prime Minister's vision of ending 40 years of neo-liberalism — through public ownership, mass insourcing and decentralisation — is popular amongst the vast majority of good, decent Labour members and the British public. However, there is much to do to turn this into reality.

UK Chancellor pledges cheaper marmalade and gherkins in pre-Budget package of 'everyday fixes'. Fiddling at the edges. Need redistribution of income and wealth. End profiteering in housing, energy, water, essentials. Increase tax personal allowance. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c6d9…

Today Israeli authorities barred me and other European elected representatives from entering the West Bank to meet Palestinian students and civil society leaders, as part of a @ProgIntl delegation. We knew that by crossing into the occupied Palestinian territories, we risked being detained, interrogated and turned away by Israeli authorities. And that, alas, is exactly what happened. For more than eight hours, we were held, interrogated and made to feel as though we had done something wrong simply by attempting to enter. The simple truth is we had done nothing wrong. We went to show our support for the Palestinian people and highlight the terrible injustice and violence being perpetrated against them. We want to ensure that people back home do not look away from the reality of what is happening. Ultimately, we went to show solidarity. But we left with an even greater determination to speak out. We will not be silenced, and we will not look away. None of us should.

It’s time to rejoin the Labour Party. Please rejoin/join Labour & Momentum to defeat Reform, help determine the direction of Burnham’s Labour Party and build a socialist force in British politics.
Burnham has laid out a bold vision for Britain. Now, we must turn his vision into action. Socialists are already organising across our movement. But we need you. It’s time for a socialist Labour Party ready to deliver change. Join Labour. Join Momentum mtm.is/join

The private company's top manager is on £330 an hour and low paid workers deserve at least the £2 an hour increase asked for. And traffic enforcement should be public not private for profit.
I’ve just come off a Unison picket line for striking Camden traffic wardens. They were privatised by Camden Council years ago. I was on their picket lines in 2012. They work 42.5 hours a week on low pay. They are striking for an extra £2 an hour and to have their leave entitlement the same as the council workers, which means an extra 7 days. The company is NSL, whose top manager is on £619,000 - £330 an hour. Some wonderful supporter brought a solidarity chocolate cake to the picket line. The traffic warden service should be brought back in house. Solidarity. @unisontheunion

Pleased to sign this cross-party letter opposing Rosebank and Jackdaw licences. The long term costs of new drilling far outweigh any short-term gain. We cannot credibly urge other countries to leave fossil fuels in the ground while greenlighting new oil and gas projects.
