Deeply saddened by the horrific murder of Henry Nowak and my heartfelt condolences to Henry’s family. But beware those cunningly politicising people’s pain; scapegoating and throwing under the bus the whole Sikh community, based on the actions of just one violent individual. 1/2

#Sikhs have peacefully practiced their faith carrying a #kirpan (small ceremonial dagger) in #Britain for over a century. Weapon used in #HenryNowak’s tragic murder was not a kirpan, but a lethal 8 inch armour-piercing blade. Sikhs deserve better than this knee-jerk reaction.

Since #Labour came to power, we’ve seen six interest rate cuts, tens of billions in inward investment to the #UK, falling inflation, reducing debt and record budget surplus LBC Iain Dale 🏴🇬🇧 ⚒️ Please don’t listen to #Reform and failed #Conservatives—the #economy is turning a corner.

Alarming news of man killed with bullet wound to head and several injured, as #FarmersProtest reported standoff with police. Legitimate posts and accounts of activists also taken down by X in India. #FreedomOfExpression and #HumanRights of peaceful protestors must be protected.

Billions wasted on “world-beating” test and trace system, on PPE not fit for purpose and an endless list of crony Covid contracts going to Tory chums. When is PM going to recover that lost money, so we can pay striking nurses, teachers and others decent wages they deserve? #PMQs

Scapegoating the #Sikh community and their ability to freely practice their faith for the actions of one murderer is wrong. Exemption for Sikh #women and men to wear a #kirpan is extremely limited — a knee-jerk rection to strip hard-won rights is missing the wood for the trees.

Deepest condolences to Henry Nowak's family - what happened to Henry mustn’t happen again. Indebted to Mr Nowak for his dignity, grace and poise, even in such grief. Hope all can rally behind his call for unity, as it’s not about religion or racism, but actions of one murderer.

The brutal murder of #HenryNowak is heartbreaking for us all, but especially for his family. I am so grateful to them, making clear that they don't want this tragedy to be used to divide communities. Instead, we should redouble our efforts to tackle the scourge of #KnifeCrime.

In a more volatile world, #Government rhetoric must align with reality. Any further delay to #Defence Investment Plan, which the #PrimeMinister says is on his desk, sends completely the wrong signal to our industrial base, our allies and adversaries. When will it be published?

#Sikhs suffered collective trauma in 1984, as #Amritsar #GoldenTemple complex was attacked, with intolerable destruction and loss of life. While previous governments tried to brush it under the carpet, we need independent inquiry to establish extent of Thatcher govt involvement.

Tragically, one in every 33 people in #Gaza has been killed and one in every 14 injured! This colossal scale of assault on the #Palestinian people shows mass and indiscriminate action - surely it indicates a clear risk of #InternationalLaw violation and #genocide.

Prime Minister, what's the one thing that keeps you awake at night?

Like global voices, I’ve openly called for #ceasefire, but Hamas and Israel have rejected it. I voted for roadmap to peace wanting end to violence, ICC jurisdiction (for war crimes), #Gaza siege lifted, stop settler violence, enduring cessation of fighting and 2 state solution.

When racist riots were engulfing us; in Slough, Christians, Hindus, Jews, Sikhs and others openly declared if anyone tried to attack a local mosque, we’ll stand in solidarity with our Muslim community to protect it. Vital we don’t allow those seeking to divide society succeed.

I’m proud to be standing again in #Slough as #Labour’s MP candidate on 4th July. After 14 long years of failures, millions desperately need #change and a Labour government, as we have a plan to sort out the Tory mess. For a better brighter future for all, please #VoteLabour🌹

What we’re witnessing in #Gaza is the weaponisation of starvation; with an ongoing blockade of food, water, medicines and aid entering Gaza now into its second month … not to mention the further 15 aid workers killed and found in a mass grave … this must stop!
