Congratulations to Bev Craig on an excellent win in #GreaterManchester👏🏻🌹🎉
It is 2 years since the unspeakable act of evil was perpetrated in Southport. The families and friends of Bebe, Elsie and Alice have shown such bravery and dignity since that horrific day. They are very much in my thoughts today, along with those 3 beautiful innocent girls❤️❤️❤️
Good luck to all the cyclists taking part in the 11th Jo Cox Way bike ride - a 290 mile journey from Yorkshire to London, bringing people together through cycling, remembering Jo, showing the very best of our country & raising money for @jocoxfoundation.bsky.social 🚴🏻♀️🚴🏾
Today marks a pivotal new chapter for our country. A new Prime Minister & many changes at the top of Government. Politics is a tough business, but I feel hopeful about what is to come. It has been a pleasure to work with Andy over the last decade & he has my full support.
Today, the Hillsborough Law passed the HoC. This Bill is for the 97 & their families, but it is also for every one of us. It is for the victims of Hillsborough, the Post Office Horizon scandal, Infected Blood scandal, Grenfell, Manchester Arena & others who deserve truth, accountability and justice.
Today marks 21yrs since the 7/7 bombings, when 52 people were killed & many more injured. I am thinking of them & everyone affected by this horrific terrorist attack. Thank you to our emergency services & the people of London for their courage & compassion on that dreadful day.
Beautiful display in Parliament celebrating Jo’s life and legacy ahead of the 10th anniversary of her murder tomorrow💜 #JoCox @jocoxfoundation.bsky.social
9 years on, remembering all those impacted by the horrific fire in #GrenfellTower - so many lives lost and many more changed forever💚 #Grenfell
98 names. Not forgotten – finally found. On the 82nd anniversary of D-Day – the Allied landings that helped secure Europe’s freedom – these names are added to the British Normandy Memorial. Every man is remembered. Each one is a hero. We shall never forget. #DDay
At the centre of the murder of Henry Nowak is a family who will feel immeasurable pain for the rest of their lives. Their response to their devastating loss has been dignified and courageous. They deserve answers and are very much in my thoughts, as is Henry.
Today is #EmergencyMedicineDay I pay tribute to the dedicated professionals working in A&Es across the UK who deliver life-saving care under immense pressure, and reaffirm a commitment to eliminate violence and abuse against NHS staff in all its forms #EMDay26
Wishing a joyous and blessed Eid al-Adha to all who are celebrating across #SpenValley and beyond #EidMubarak
Today is the 13th anniversary of the heinous murder of British Soldier, Fusilier Lee Rigby. Lee was killed in a brutal terrorist attack and his memory must never be forgotten. Thinking of Lee’s family and friends and everyone affected by that dreadful day.
Today we remember the victims of the horrific terrorist attack at Manchester Arena. 22 lives lost and many more changed forever. We must never allow those who try to divide us to succeed❤️ #NeverForget #ManchesterArena
