    If you have ever experienced racism or discrimination, you can appreciate full well the hurt and pain felt by Muslim women, who were singled out by this divisive Prime Minister. It’s high time he apologised for his derogatory and racist remarks! 1/2

    Pounding the pavements in #Makerfield alongside many committed #Labour activists, talking to voters about what matters to them, saw strong support for @AndyBurnhamGM, who would be a fantastic high-profile MP for them. On Thursday 18th June, please #VoteLabour🌹

    Pleasure to host in #Parliament members of #France’s Institut des hautes études de défense nationale (#French Institute of Advanced Studies in National Defence), answering their detailed probing questions on the work of our Defence Committee, and wider #defence and #security.

    It’s now inescapable - as I recently told the now former #Defence Secretary John Healey - that #government must finally make a choice and accelerate investment in defence. Given the increased #threats, chugging along is no longer an option!

    Cable repair crews will understandably be reluctant to enter contested waters where they will come under attack. As I discussed during #Parliament’s Joint Committee on the #NationalSecurity Strategy, we must learn lessons from the #IranWar on how to deal with such issues.

    Alongside @melanie_ward, every Labour Select Committee Chair and almost 140 Labour MPs, I’ve written to the Foreign Secretary to call for a ban on trade with illegal Israeli settlements. We shouldn’t support occupations that violate international law—it’s wrong and must stop.

    Ten years after the late great #JoCox was brutally taken away from us by a far right extremist, her belief we have #MoreInCommon than that which divides us is more vital than ever. In her memory, let’s reject the politics of hate and division—embracing instead hope and unity.

    As I said to @NickFerrariLBC on @LBC, John Healey was a committed Defence Secretary, who understood the scale of the #threats we face. Recent resignations over shortcomings in the #defence settlement must be taken seriously by #government and urgent changes made to keep us safe.

    At the recent State Opening of #Parliament, was good to catch up with @CommonsSpeaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle in all his finest regalia. Our democracy and traditions are so important - still amazing to see it first hand, even nine years in!

    The prime minister and chancellor need to "meet the moment" and agree to reach 3% of GDP spending on defence by 2030, says the chair of the Defence Select Committee. trib.al/xkgesCn 📺 Sky 501 and YouTube

    Great to chat with @latikambourke about the #Defence Committee's recent hard-hitting #AUKUS report, the need to go further and faster on defence spending, and the high status of our world-famous #Slough office... Please listen to all this and more here: latika.me/TanDhesi
