Caring isn’t just my family's story, it is the story of millions, caring for each other, dealing with tough times, and keeping going with love. Sharing our story hasn't been easy, but it's important. It's time to bring carers' experiences into the light.

The IPC has confirmed our worst fears. We cannot sit idle while this catastrophe unfolds. Trump has the power to stop the devastation. He needs to pick up the phone to Netanyahu - today - and threaten consequences unless aid routes into Gaza are fully reopened.

Congrats to our teams in Surrey and Hampshire for their fabulous results! . Only a year ago the media were telling us we had reached our peak in the blue wall - and we have proved them wrong time and time again.

Tesla Full Self-Driving is not safer than a human driving manually. - FSD failed a DMV driver's test.- HW3 has 20/60 vision (illegal).- HW4 has 20/40 vision (bare legal minimum).- FSD hallucinates like all AIs. It's no surprise Tesla can only defend FSD with fake safety stats.

Britain can’t afford Elon’s next power trip. Today I’ve written to the Energy Secretary urging him to block Musk’s electricity supply licence. The government should be putting the national interest first, not worrying about upsetting @elonmusk

Netanyahu's assault on Gaza City will only deepen the cycle of violence, worsen the death and suffering, and put hostages lives at greater risk. Donald Trump could stop this now by picking up the phone today. Keir Starmer must use whatever influence he has to make that happen.

I so enjoyed my visit to Pavilion on the Park in Eastleigh with local MP @LizJarvisUK . It’s a fantastic place for everyone to get some exercise! We tested out an adapted bike from Cycles4All. NO HANDS!

Putin is the aggressor, Trump the appeaser - if Europe does not stand together we know exactly how this ends.

Ahead of Zelensky’s trilateral with Putin, the UK and European leaders need to step up. For Starmer that means making a commitment to providing British typhoons to the Ukrainian air force, seizing the frozen Russian assets and showing Putin that we will continue to back Ukraine.

Trump's plan to hand Ukrainian territory to Putin would not bring peace. It would be the greatest reward for aggression in living memory, and only lead to more Russian aggression in Ukraine and across Eastern Europe.

Trump still seems to think his job is to get President Zelenskyy to cave to Putin’s demands. Keir Starmer must show real resolve and persuade him that it’s about strengthening Ukraine and weakening Putin so he accepts Europe’s terms.

It’s clear Putin doesn’t want peace. Trump’s attempt to sweet talk him into a deal has failed, so it’s time for Trump to finally get tough. The UK should seize Russian assets to help Ukraine today, and press the US to do the same.

80 years ago today saw the end of the Second World War and victory over the forces of fascism. On the anniversary of VJ Day, we honour all those who fought in Asia and the Pacific in defence of our democracy and our freedom. We will not forget.

Netanyahu’s plan to occupy Gaza is abhorrent and it's increasingly clear that his goal is ethnic cleansing. The UK can't just sit on its hands. The Prime Minister must stop all arms exports to Israel and sanction Netanyahu and his cabinet.

Netanyahu’s reprehensible proposal to occupy all of Gaza will only further devastate Gazans and endanger the hostages still held by Hamas. The Prime Minister must urgently pick up the phone to President Trump and press him to make Netanyahu abandon this plan.

Closer ties with Europe would revive our economy, boost our NHS and farming, and restore faith in politics. Starmer must seize this chance to show the public there’s a better way forward than the nasty, nonsensical “solutions” of Nigel Farage.
