Labour MP for North Warwickshire and Bedworth and Co-Chair of the LGBT+ Parliamentary Labour Party
Council Leader George Finch claimed a Pride display in a Warwickshire library posed a threat to children, but I've got hold of figures showing not a single person has complained that these displays were inappropriate for children. He should drop this crusade against LGBT people and focus on his job.
Being LGBT is not something to be "cured". I strongly welcome the proposed ban on conversion practices, which marks a decisive step towards ending one of the most harmful forms of abuse experienced by LGBT people Me and @joedh.bsky.social in @labourlist.bsky.social: labourlist.org/2026/06/ban-...

It is time to ensure all LGBT+ people are protected from coercive conversion practices which have destroyed so many lives.

My statement on the Prime Minister's resignation.
Brilliant to be up in Makerfield campaigning for Andy over the weekend.
Reform are determined to stir up bigotry and division in our communities. I will always stand up for everyone in North Warwickshire and Bedworth. Here's my thoughts on George Finch's threat to bring censorship to Warwickshire's libraries on BBC CWR today:
My statement on the EHRC Code of Practice and why I have chosen to sign the Motion of Regret.
Brilliant to mark Pride Month with a group photo with just some of our LGBT Labour MPs, including Equalities Minister @oliviabailey.bsky.social. Incredibly proud to co-Chair this group with @jamesasser.bsky.social
My statement on the new guidance on sex and gender that follows last year's Supreme Court judgement.
It was wonderful to host MPs, policing minister @sarahjonesmp.bsky.social, and women's, disability, and LGBT+ organisations last night to celebrate the passing of my amendment to strengthen hate crime law. I'm really proud to have pushed through this important change in the law.
Here’s why I’m supporting the government’s justice reforms.
I'm proud that an amendment I introduced to make hate crime an aggravated offence for LGBT+ and disabled people has been accepted by the government. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The proposed change has been set out in an amendment to the government's Crimes and Policing Bill.

1/ You wouldn’t know it from the coverage, but two recent employment tribunal rulings have vindicated those of us who have said from the start that the Supreme Court judgment did not require the automatic exclusion of trans people from single-sex toilets and changing rooms. 🧵
Today is the anniversary of the repeal of Section 28 in England and Wales. Here's why the campaign to strike down that homophobic law was what first got me involved in politics 👇
It was fantastic to speak to BBC Midlands last night about my campaign to tackle serious organised freight crime. 20% of workers in our community work in freight and logistics, so I am proud to be standing up for this vital sector.
1/ Last year I launched a campaign to tackle freight crime and call for a new crime code so the police can act. At first it felt like no one recognised the scale of the problem, so it’s brilliant to see BBC Midlands highlight it in a major new documentary. 🧵 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Criminals buy haulage firms to steal lorryloads of goods, BBC finds
These tactics and others, such as raids on lorries stopped in traffic, are driving a freight-crime surge.

My letter in the Guardian about why the Equality and Human Rights Commission's guidance on sex and gender is unworkable and goes far beyond what the Supreme Court judgement actually said.

Farage called misogynist influencer Andrew Tate an "important voice for men" and wants to scrap the online safety law that protects children from extreme pornography and women from revenge porn. Reform have no plan to keep people safe online.
Yesterday I completed my 1,500 mile journey from the UK to the Ukrainian border, where we handed over the ambulance and all the supplies generously donated by the British public.
