Wasn't only the hippies. That was great vintage for the new romantics and post punks too!

Our powerful @Daily_Express front page for tomorrow. The brutal suffering in Gaza must end. The shocking image shows Muhammad Zakariya Ayyoub al-Matouq, one, who weighs the same as three-month old baby due to the humanitarian crisis following the continued blocking of basic aid…

My Sunday North Sea swim by Bamburgh Castle was lovely but I had to consult @sascampaigns to avoid Northumbria Water sewage spills. I asked the SoS what's to blame: a) Water bills being too low as the Tories say b) profiteering water companies or c) broken regulatory system?

Wishing the very best of luck to our incredible England women's team tonight! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 The whole country is behind you. #ComeOnEngland 🦁🦁🦁

MPs - and the British people - have heard the urgings, demands and outrage, yet the suffering in Palestine only worsens. The Minister’s letter to me last week offered some useful clarifications, but when it comes to the UK Government's action, I have to ask: is this it?

Today marks a huge moment for families as we launch the North East Child Poverty Action Plan. Our region has shamefully high levels of child poverty - we have to act! So with £28.6m of investment, we’ll do just that. We’ll expand baby box deliveries, give cash grants to…

I've not seen this one. It's a new scam to me. If anyone sees it and has a link pls send as I'd like to get on with trying to get it wiped out.

The Online Safety regime the Government inherited is not fit for purpose. It fails to tackle misinformation and protect British citizens online. I asked the PM to guarantee that US trade talks & visits from President & Vice President would not prevent him taking urgent action.

"Science and technology can help us find the answer" - @ChiOnwurah We've launched an inquiry into innovation and global food security 👇

Promise made. Promise delivered. This Labour government is establishing an inquiry into the violent confrontation between police and picketers at Orgreave.

Fantastic to meet @ClimateActNow in #Newcastle to explore how our city can lead the way in green innovation. We discussed the future of clean energy, green jobs and exciting technologies like carbon capture and solar power. Innovation is powering our city's green future. ☀️🌱

From our own @HarvardLIL and @ravellaw project scanning all IS caseload over ten years

This is a long overdue and vital move - I was on the picket lines in 84/5 and Orgreave clearly felt set up *politically*: either we need answers from the intelligence and policing record to achieve generational justice

Newcastle is known as a party city, rain, snow or shine and #NorthernPride 🏳️‍🌈 is the best kind of party - open to everyone, free music and dancing, pride in who we are and everyone celebrating the right to love and be who we chose.

Went all the way to Bamburgh for this weekend's swim. So fabulous to swim in crystal clear water with that historic castle towering over the landscape. #NorthEast
