On National Post Workers Day, I thank everyone who is working so hard across our postal service in Leeds South West and Morley to deliver in time for Christmas. Grateful to the workers at our Royal Mail delivery depots for showing me around and for giving me my post!

Chanukah is meant to be a festival of joy, but the Jewish community has been subject to an evil antisemitic attack on the first day. This is what “globalise the intifada” looks like. There should be no place for antisemitism. We must defeat the world’s oldest hatred.

Great to speak with Natasha who has set up and runs The Empowered Collective in East Ardsley. This newly refurbished community hub in East Ardsley exists for both women and men who support them. Look forward to collaborating with you Natasha!

We are delighted that @RachelReevesMP has announced the UK will help launch a new International Fund for Israeli-Palestinian Peace - a long-standing LFI call. This is a vital step to foster reconciliation, hope, and lasting peace for both communities. 🇮🇱🕊️🇵🇸
