Delighted to see Haringey receive a share of this fantastic fund! Myddleton Road will benefit from a great new outdoor space for community and cultural events 👏🏼 This is exactly the support for London’s hospitality and nightlife that we need 🪩
Working with boroughs and local businesses, we’re bringing outdoor dining, live music and later opening hours to streets across the capital. My Summer Streets investment will create new outdoor spaces, support businesses and give Londoners more reasons to enjoy our city.

Last night, I presented my Debt Relief Bill to Parliament for a second time. It is unfathomable that any country spends more on debt than on health or education. This Bill would cost the Treasury nothing & compel private creditors to negotiate fairly. We need it now.

When experts warn of national security threats and even extinction-level risks from superintelligent AI, parliamentarians must listen. I was delighted to sponsor @ControlAI’s parliamentary drop-in, pushing for the international coordination this moment demands.

Can you believe there is VAT on #defibrillator sales? Me neither. As part of the #ScraptheHeartRestartTax campaign, I have co-ordinated a cross-party group of MPs to join me in writing to the Chancellor on this issue. Please read 👇

This week, I raised the concerns of constituents of Southgate & Wood Green about illegal activity in high street shops. I know how much our high streets matter to our community & I will continue to call for increased powers for our local authorities & trading standards officers.

Last week was #CarersWeek! It was a great opportunity to meet with and discuss the experiences of unpaid carers.  We must work together to ensure our communities are carer friendly, recognising and valuing our unpaid carers. Thank you for everything you do.

A huge thank you to everyone who attended Disability Action Haringey’s AGM today. It was fantastic to see so many members, trustees, partners, volunteers, and supporters coming together to reflect on another year of achievements and to help shape our future. A special thank you to our guest speakers,@MikScarlet @BambosMP @lmdasneves , for taking the time to join us and share their insights, passion, and commitment to advancing the rights and inclusion of D/deaf and disabled people. Thank you also to our trustees for their continued leadership and commitment, and to all our members whose involvement and support make our work possible. Together, we continue to demonstrate the power of a strong, user-led community and the importance of ensuring that D/deaf and disabled people are at the heart of decisions that affect our lives. #DisabilityActionHaringey #DDPO #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs #Community #CoProduction

Today, I am an uncle backing the #TwoWeeksIsntEnough campaign with @dadshiftuk! Fathers in the UK currently receive just two weeks paternity leave, robbing dads of those precious first days. I want us to be a country that backs its dads as proudly as it backs its team.

Today is the @sendmyfriend Parliamentary Action Day! Fantastic to welcome Bella, Lana, & many more amazing young advocates to Westminster to discuss working towards a world where every child has access to a inclusive & equitable quality education. Education is a human right.

Fantastic to meet with the @hba_support team in Parliament to learn more about vascular care and the support available for those affected by hereditary brain aneurysms. I'm backing calls for a National Commissioning Framework for Vascular Care to change stories and save lives.

At Risley Avenue, @UKLabour's free breakfast club is working! The club boosts children’s wellbeing, attainment, attendance and behaviour 🥣 Idris, a parent who couldn't afford the club before, told me he now gets to work on time & his kids enjoy a positive start to the day 👏

On #EmergencyMedicineDay, we recognise the life-saving work of emergency medicine professionals. I visited our local A&E team at the North Mid, who care for remarkably high numbers of patients in their emergency department every day, always with kindness and professionalism 👏

This #NationalEpilepsyWeek, I'm calling for fair research investment. Too many face barriers to timely healthcare & equal outcomes. With 630,000 people in the UK living with #epilepsy, research must receive the funding it needs to find personalised treatments & transform lives.

Fantastic to see such targeted action on this issue. Our petition from local residents in #Enfield and #Haringey called for action just like this from the Govt. While I welcome this step forward, I will continue to call for increased powers for local authorities to tackle this.
We’re taking the fight to the organised criminals who abuse our high streets. We're backing the police and trading standards to shut down bogus businesses, stop dodgy shops from opening, and put the dirty cash they launder back into the public purse.
