@traceyw1lliams Good for you ! An MP with guts, values and principles. An MP who cares . Few and far between now this being an MP is a career choice ie Uni-SPAD - MP . Disastrous ! No life experience, clueless BUT McSweeny selected them so there we have it !!! Following in his footprints

If there's a new party coming, please jump Ian. Would hate to see you losing your seat because of Liz Kendall, Rachel Reeves and Keir Starmer.

Ian, Labour are beyond finished, a sham, a laughing stock, an insulate to voters. You should have jumped ship as an independent when two tier removed your whip last year. And as for your snot nosed colleague Carden, the lowest of the low.

As I’ve said before, the cruel attacks on disabled people by the DWP since 2010 will go down in history as an inexcusable crime —so will this Government’s plans now. I will be voting against cuts to disability benefits. My colleagues can & must do so too.

In Parliament I said the simple truth is that any MP who votes for the disability cuts is voting to take support away from disabled people who need help to cut up food, wash, or go to the toilet. That’s why over 100 MPs – including me – will be voting it down next Tuesday.

From the very beginning of this shambolic spectacle, the government has treated disabled people with complete and utter contempt. The government's Disability Cuts Bill is disgraceful - and I will be voting against it.

I’m voting against disability benefit cuts because I oppose them, but the process by which this Bill is being rushed through without necessary information or adequate scrutiny, is reason enough for MPs to vote against it on Tuesday. This is not how we should make laws.

Labour governments are meant to lift people out of poverty - not push them into it. But that’s what the cuts to disability support will do - with half a million more people forced to rely on food banks. My interview on LBC on why I’m voting against these devastating cuts.

I will be voting against the government’s draconian anti-boycott Bill. Defend human rights. Support BDS. Free Palestine.

In Parliament today, I called for the planned cuts to disability benefits to be scrapped. We should not be balancing the books on the backs of the poorest. Instead, we should be taxing the wealthiest. If the Government does not drop its plans, I'll be voting against the cuts.

I am going into the Commons Chamber to speak against & vote against the Government’s appalling Bill to cut disability benefits. I urge all Labour MPs to do so. I was elected to protect disabled people not harm them.

In today’s Parliamentary debate, I again said that I will vote against the planned cuts to disability support. The Government should have learnt the lesson of the winter fuel debacle — and dropped these cuts. It’s not too late to change course.

Disability benefits cuts affect us all. Anyone can become disabled at any point. The government’s concessions will leave those who become disabled in the future with even less support than today. A third of disabled people are already in poverty. We cannot allow this to grow.

Why am I voting Green today? From disgust with Labour's support for Israel to fear of Reform UK racism and Islamophobia, Muslims in Gorton and Denton tell us why they're voting Green.

No Labour Government should ever be slashing £3,000 from 750,000 low-income sick and disabled people. That’s why I voted against the Disability Cuts Bill.

Just like my friend @JohnMcDonnellMP said about Tory cuts a decade ago, I would swim through vomit to vote against the Government's cruel cuts to disabled people's support. That's what I told a parliamentary debate on the cuts today.
