My allegiance is now and always will be with the people of Derry who send me to Westminster to represent them and the people of Ireland. No empty formula can change that.

The new legacy legislation was debated in the House of Commons last night and I took the opportunity to set the record straight about what happened on Bloody Sunday for those who have chosen to ignore the truth for decades.

There were 186 children killed during the conflict here. But far too often their stories and the needs of their families are overlooked in a debate that feels completely focussed on former soldiers. I took the opportunity to challenge that this week.

Tories lining up to talk about the Saville Inquiry but how many of them have actually read the report? Have they read the conclusions about Soldier F? Have they read how many innocent civil rights protestors he killed, by his own admission?

Delighted to be back fighting for Derry and to have a Labour Government. Took the opportunity to give a few pieces of advice to new MPs, including the ones I profoundly disagree with… Time to crack on with the work now 👇

The DUP’s famous forward thinking on display here. And of course, the great John Tierney!

While the Irish Government is set to have a budget surplus of €16 billion next year, London is cutting services to our children. Our people’s interests would be better serviced in a new, united Ireland. The SDLP

Is Sammy Wilson calling Derry people whiners for wanting our fair share of investment and government funding? We still have no money for the Brandywell or Magee expansion, and we're still waiting for funding for the Northlands Addiction centre. Derry won't be ignored.

The cuts to disability support are cruel, immoral and unethical. It’ll make already vulnerable people poorer, less independent and more isolated. After fighting to get rid of the Tories for 14 years, what was the point if Labour are going to do this?

It is ridiculous to say that the British Army should be at a Council jobs fair in Derry this week - this is a made up row for the DUP and it’s incredibly insensitive in the week that the Bloody Sunday families are heading to court to seek justice.

Tomorrow Shipquay street in Derry will be turning red for Gaza. We’re sending a message that we won’t forget Gaza. The people of Derry and the people of Ireland stand squarely with Palestinians on the front line of Netanyahu’s genocide.

Israel is committing a genocide in Gaza. No one can deny that. Governments recognising the state of Palestine is good news but we need more action. 🔴 No weapons or components to Israel 🔴 Economic sanctions 🔴 Sanctions on Netanyahu and his cabinet The genocide has to stop.

I’ve co-signed the Reasoned Amendment to decline a second reading to the Welfare and PIP Bill alongside more than 100 other MPs. The bill is a cruel and unconscionable attack on vulnerable people. We’ve tried to raise concerns, including directly with the Prime Minister 👇

Despite the fact that the Brexit deal between Europe and the British govt is done, the DUP still refuse to go back in. We have an American government offering to help us attract business and jobs here thanks to our dual market access. The DUP must now get back to work. #GFA25

Simon Byrne made the right decision today, but the fundamental issues within the PSNI remain. There’s a real crisis in the recruitment and retention of of Catholics. The PSNI must reflect the community it serves. It’s time 50/50 recruitment was brought back.

Expensive flight fares can make travel from Derry inaccessible to local people. I raised it at Westminster today and pleased to get a commitment from Mike Kane MP to review it during the next renewal of public service obligation routes. Maybe the Shadow SOS could benefit? 🤷‍♂️
