🗣️ Important reminder: All MPs can now correct the official record when they make a mistake. This improvement to the parliamentary correction system comes after campaigning from Full Fact. We hope to see our politicians lead by example.

In his speech to the European Political Community today, PM @Kier_Starmer_PM says, 'We will never withdraw' from the European Convention on Human Rights. He says Churchill was among the chief architects of the convention. So what's the #ECHR been doing for us... @Kalayaan

Today marks the anniversary of the Trinity nuclear test. Survivors have long warned about nuclear weapons' dangers without receiving justice. As Bernice Gutierrez said, "Justice delayed is justice denied." It's time for reparations and ending these inhumane weapons. #NuclearBan

Worth a read. Transcript courtesy of @mrjamesob excellent book. This is how UKIP sold us #brexit. This is what Farage and his supporters said to justify the single biggest act of self harm a country has enacted. Don't need to agree, just look at the election results.

In recent weeks, tens of thousands of people have taken to the streets across Israel demanding that the Israeli authorities agree a ceasefire agreement and negotiate the release of hostages. Families of hostages are continuing their march from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem today.

Now is the time to bring an end to the terrible war in Gaza, starting with an immediate humanitarian ceasefire and an immediate and unconditional release of all hostages. It is high time for the parties to show the political courage and political will to finally reach a deal.

This despicable attack on a children's hospital is the latest in a long line of probably war crimes by Russia in Ukraine. We deplore this cowardly attack on sick children. Putin and his regime must be held accountable.
