In 2015, David Cameron knew he had won a majority when the Tories won Nuneaton. Yesterday, Labour won it with a 19% swing. I'm so proud to have been part the campaign that took back Nuneaton. It wouldn't have been possible without the help from my co-organiser Zara Overton!

Trans people are some of the most marginalised in society. Labour MPs should be standing up for trans rights, not punching down. Language like this will only worsen the abuse and discrimination trans people face on a day to day basis. It's wrong and I condemn it.

Jack won because over 2,300 young members voted for him (he won 68% of the vote!) He's been an active campaigner in the party for over 6 years and he's earned every position he's won, including this one. Aaron should get off Twitter, stop worrying about other people's families

The new chair of Young Labour is seemingly the son of Gary Lubner, who donated ยฃ4.5 million to the party. I can't help but feel if that was the Tories it would somehow be a major issue for the Guardian, LBC &, dare I say, Young Labour... We need a whole new party system, & PR.

Although it may surprise Annette to hear it, the people I speak to on the doorstep aren't full of hatred at trans people. The vast majority believe that everyone, including the trans community, has the right to live freely and with dignity.

Brianna Ghey was murdered because she was trans. Rather than condemn transphobia or at the very least show sympathy, he made transphobic jokes. I didn't think he could surpass the lack of humanity he showed in his ยฃ1000 Rwanda bet. I was wrong. #TransRightsAreHumanRights

Finally Parliament has called for a ceasefire and that's an important thing. The suffering of Palestinians in Gaza has been unimaginable. However, fighting will continue despite this vote tonight. Now the UK must play our part in pathing the way to a viable two-state solution.

Listening to @PaulJSweeney at the NLS Conference Housing crisis panel and he hits the nail on the head. There is nothing progressive about parties like the Greens which on one hand support rent controls and on the other block new housing.

Anthony is absolutely right to write this letter, there should be no place for anti-Semitism anywhere in our society. I hope @TheO2 act to make sure the offensive and wrong Berlin performance is not repeated.

Anti-Jewish hate will not be tolerated in the @Royal_Greenwich . Ahead of the Roger Waters concert next week, I have written to the @TheO2 to urge them to stand with us in our commitment to end all forms of hate.

Ouch. It's clear that while the Greens are great at talking the talk nationally, on the local level they are more focused on blocking the investment in our communities that we (particularly young people) desperately need.

Green Leader @AdrianRamsay challenges @bbclaurak to find examples of his party blocking local solar wind farms. She gives three in rapid succession. Greens will only be a protest party until they get real on tradeoffs in building an economy that improves lives and environment.

A great canvas in Mottingham with @CliveEfford yesterday! The anger at this government is palpable and people are turning to Labour for change.

Absolutely right. Labour is a party for everyone, not just those who live in urban seats. Labour should campaign hard everywhere.
