Tahir Ali MP

Labour is building back the crucial family services that were decimated by the Tories. That's because we believe every child growing up in our country deserves the best start in life, regardless of their background.

It was great to meet with the Chief Executive of NHS Birmingham & Solihull Integrated Care Board, David Melbourne, and discuss issues related to GP surgeries, NHS waiting lists and primary care. If anyone in the constituency has any particular concerns relating to these issues,…

Today I asked the Foreign Secretary whether the government would send military personnel into Gaza to protect and aid civilians in the region. The Israeli government has been committing war crimes in Palestine over the past two years, and the United Kingdom cannot sit back and…

I was glad to help commemorate the 20th anniversary of Russell Nursery School, which has consistently provided first-class care to children from across the constituency. A real credit to the staff and the leadership team who make it such a special place.

Our Labour Government is taking decisive action to give children the best start in life. Our new, world-leading £500m Better Futures Fund will give hundreds of thousands of children, young people and their families the support they need to help them reach their full potential.

Labour is transforming opportunities for children in care. We’re taking decisive action to tackle illegal and exploitative children’s homes. High-quality provision to support children with complex needs is key to that — so we’re investing to deliver it. independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

I had the pleasure of meeting students and teachers from Montgomery Primary Academy in SparkBrook, which recently received an ‘outstanding’ Ofsted report. It’s also one of the schools benefiting from the schools-based nursery programme, a commitment by the government to open…

The international community continues to fail Palestinians, more and more illegal settlements are built, Palestinians who have lived there for decades are forces out of their homes, a clear violation of international law. We need to end any complicity with Israel’s war…

Budgetary savings should never be made at the expense of the most vulnerable in our society, that’s why I signed the reasoned amendment opposing PIP changes and I’m glad the government has listened to MPs and the constituents we represent. I did not vote for the bill tonight as…

It was great to attend the King Edward’s annual Foundation Awards ceremony. I was able to meet the headteachers of King Edward VI Camp Hill School for Boys and King Edward VI Camp Hill School for Girls in my constituency. The dedicated teachers at the schools have consistently…

I was glad to be able to attend NHS Birmingham and Solihull ICB’s cancer bus tour as it stopped on Stratford Road today. The team have been doing excellent work in increasing the uptake of health checks for common cancers. Early diagnosis of cancer is vital, and the cancer bus…

It has come to my attention that my name is being falsely used in connection with an event by Citi Housing scheduled for June 21–22. I would like to make it absolutely clear that I have no knowledge or affiliation to this event. This is a scam and my name is being used without…

Last week, in Parliament, I spoke about child poverty and the Government's role in combating it. No child should have their future dictated by shortsighted Government decisions.

In Parliament, I again asked the government when they will recognise Palestine as a state. The UK remains in the international minority that is yet to recognise the statehood of Palestine. No more delays, no more talk of 'waiting for the right moment’. We must act now.

I am appalled at the news of the stabbing of a young boy at Moseley School yesterday. It is a disaster that knife attacks occur involving such young individuals in our society. We must do everything we can to end knife crime in its entirety. My thoughts are with the family and I…

I would like to wish everyone in Hall Green and Moseley, and across the world a very happy Eid Mubarak. May your day be filled with peace, joy, and blessings.

Yesterday, I spoke about the need to significantly improve prosecution and conviction rates for violence against women and girls. In the West Midlands, only 2.8% of all reported violence against women result in a charge or conviction. There needs to be more focus on putting…

Today in the House of Commons, I urged the Government to suspend the UK-Israel trade envoy and to push for Israel to be expelled as a member state from the UN. The war crimes in Gaza must stop and aid must reach the Palestinians immediately.

🩸 Thousands of lung cancer patients will benefit from a new blood test which can speed up access to targeted therapy. This “liquid biopsy” is also being expanded to eligible breast cancer patients. Our Plan for Change is transforming cancer care. More: england.nhs.uk/2025/05/nhs-fi…
