During today’s #PMQs, I asked Rishi Sunak to offer a full & meaningful government apology for Britain's involvement in slavery & colonialism. His reply: "No". The racism people continue to experience today is rooted in these evils. An apology can be a basis for action.

Racism didn’t appear by accident. It was engineered. It is not just about words or attitudes, but material conditions: who owns wealth, who holds power, who has access to housing, healthcare, safety and dignity. To truly tackle racism, we need reparations.

In this year’s Black History Month debate, I highlighted the work that Afrikan Reparations APPG is doing to advance the campaign for reparative justice. The demand for repair is no longer a fringe issue. It is a moral and political necessity. The debate can no longer be buried or delayed.

I voted against the Immigration & Asylum Bill last night. Forcing asylum seekers to pay £10,000 for safety and shelter is punitive. Asylum is a legal right, not something we should charge for. The Government is heading down the same failed path as the last Tory administration.

Tomorrow, the United Nations will vote on Ghana's motion to recognise the Transatlantic slave trade as a crime against humanity. Given Britain's central role in this crime, a vote against would be a betrayal of every life consumed by enslavement and colonialism.

It's clear the Prime Minister doesn't have a credible plan to turn this around. I've called on him to set out a timetable for departure. We need a proper democratic process to replace him.

Many children who grow up in Britain are denied their citizenship rights because families can't afford the high fee. I’ll keep pushing the government to stop pricing these children out of citizenship and strengthen their rights.

A 2021 rule change has made it almost impossible for a candidate of the Labour Left to get onto the ballot in leadership contests. I'm urging Labour colleagues to put me on the ballot to ensure we have a proper debate about our party's direction.

The British state has never truly apologised for its role in slavery and colonialism. Yesterday, I presented a petition calling for an unequivocal apology and an All-Party Parliamentary Commission for Truth and Reparatory Justice to address these grave crimes and their legacy.

When the MP nomination threshold in leadership contests was doubled in 2021, many of us warned this move was designed to keep left-wing candidates off the ballot. Sadly, this contest has proved us right. We should have had a conversation, not a coronation.

I'm concerned that we won't get the debate we deserve from this deputy leadership contest. With just hours to go, I urge colleagues to nominate me and ensure the full range of members' views is represented on the ballot paper.

It is clear that Israel's ongoing actions in Gaza constitute a genocide. When governments avoid the term genocide, it is not because facts on the ground are unclear. It is because the implications are inconvenient. We must call it what it is and do all we can to stop it.

The government plans to double the qualifying period for indefinite leave to remain. This week, I pressed them to clarify if this change will be applied to those already in the UK. It would be incredibly cruel and damaging to apply this change retrospectively.

On Wednesday, I once again asked the government what it will do to protect those sailing to Gaza on the Global Sumud Flotilla to break Israel's siege, including my constituents. The government's first duty is to protect its citizens.

After this week's disclosures, it is concerning that Peter Mandelson still sits in the House of Lords with the Labour Whip whilst colleagues remain suspended for voting in line with their constituents' views. It can't be one rule for some and another for everyone else.

Right-wing politicians and media outlets scapegoat migrants for the consequences of their favoured austerity policies: crumbling public services, rising NHS waiting lists, struggles with school places. These riots show what can happen when they aren't called out on their lies.

We are losing more voters to the Greens and Lib Dems than to Reform. We need to stop trying to out-Reform Reform, start listening to members, and pursue a more progressive policy agenda. That can start with ending the Two Child Benefit Cap.

Today marks Emancipation Day, when the Slavery Abolition Act came into force across the British Empire Instead of compensating slaves, the government took out its biggest ever loan to pay the slavers: £300bn in today's money. We only finished paying off this loan in 2015.
