A huge thank you to award winning photographer @misanharriman for helping me mark 20 years since I was first elected to Parliament. And the first Black woman to speak from the despatch box.

Thank you again for your continuing support. We're proud to call Brent our home and contribute to its diverse and vibrant community.

A big thanks to @DawnButlerBrent for speaking last night to @GMBSisters about her journey into politics, reading from her book and signing copies for members too. #MembersFirst 🟠⚫

@hopenothate @AntiRacismDay The Mother of the House, @HackneyAbbott, powerfully intervened during my speech. Diane said someone working for her had never seen the N-word so often. Diane endures more abuse than any other MP. Sadly, I can relate. Here's a recent example of the vile racism I receive. 3/3

Huge thanks to @hopenothate and @AntiRacismDay for their tireless work. No matter your background, we can all be active allies, @thetinypod258 (Insta), in the fight for equality and justice. ❤️ 2/3

It was an honour to speak at the #BlackHistoryMonth Debate. We need these conversations now more than ever. In the face of a rising far-Right, we must stand united against hate. ✊🏾 1/3

Watch this journalist DESTROY Farage's lies in 2 mins. 👏

Backbench or frontbench, elected office is not about us, but our chance to change the lives of others for the better. From wherever I sit on these benches, I will fight with everything I have to do exactly that. https://t.co/AJyFY1LTuU

Today the PM told @itvmeridian, Katie Lam’s argument that “multiculturalism has not succeeded” from Monday’s #Peston is a sign of "how far the Conservative Party has sunk" Watch the full exchange on migration between Katie Lam and Zack Polanski here 📺👇 https://t.co/GplS7WALMx

You asked, I answered. Our #GettingThingsDone programme invests £60 million of one-off funding to tackle key issues. Greenwich, we're Getting Things Done.

Lots of exciting free things to do in London this week! 🏙️ From art and astronomy to film and festivals, there’s something for everyone! Let me know what else should be on next week’s list!

PM: "I can't tell you how much I disagree with her." Sir Keir Starmer hits back at @Katie_Lam_MP's suggestion that "multiculturalism has not succeeded in this country". The Weald of Kent MP made the comments this week on @itvpeston. @itvmeridian

Malcom X is one of my absolute inspirations - delighted to share panel on his impact on Resistance & Revolution in present day with Dawn Butler MP & Prof Kehinde Andrews at Black British Book Festival.Touched by many who bought my book, This Is Why I Resist, for the book signing

@DawnButlerBrent @NeasdenTemple @WillesdenTemple Thank you for visiting and for the mention! What a wonderful borough we get to call home 🛕

Wishing everyone a joyful Diwali, Bandi Chhor Divas & Hindu New Year! 🪔 Celebrating across Brent — from @sgadilondon to @neasdentemple & @willesdentemple — with our wonderful community. Proud to wear my sari in Parliament today and celebrate the diversity that makes us strong.

Greenwich, we're Getting Things Done. To make Greenwich safer for everyone we are: ✅ Nearly doubling our community support officers ✅ Extra police officers ✅ 8 new mobile CCTV units ✅ £100 fine for misogynistic comments #GreenwichLabour

In the audience tonight is Charlotte Bennett, one of the 13 women that Andrew Cuomo is credibly alleged to have sexually harassed while they worked in his government. She can't speak for herself because Cuomo's lawyers have hounded her. So I confronted him.

My best friend in my head, haven’t told @DawnButlerBrent. By the way she was fab last night. She invited me to Brent for #BHM. I taught at Alperton Community School (2000-2004). It made me a great teacher but I left when Ella came. Journey was undo able; I was treated so well 💔

At Brent Civic Centre for a Black History Month event - a very informative session and really interesting discussions @DawnButlerBrent @mayorofbrent @MiliKPatel @CllrGwenGrahl @BrentLabour @GMBLondonRegion @Rosemary_Laryea

Great to see @EnvironmentAPPG, @ReLondon_UK and @GreenAllianceUK come together to champion London’s circular economy and innovators. Fantastic turnout of London politicians: @DawnButlerBrent, @CalvinBailey, @RupaHuq, @JohnMcdonnellMP, @BassamMahfouz, @MikeHakata and so many

Poverty is a political choice. I was a minister in the last Labour govt when we lifted 400,000 children out of poverty. The Conservatives reversed that progress and millions have paid the price. With free breakfast clubs & school meals, we’re rebuilding. Britain can do better.
