It’s a great privilege to take on the role as Chair of @dignityindying as we reach the brink of law change - replacing the anguish caused by our existing laws with a right for terminally ill people to have control over the end of their lives.

We are delighted to announce @PaulBlomfield25 has been appointed Chair of Dignity in Dying. A highly respected former MP, Paul knows the horrific consequences of the blanket ban on assisted dying & brings a wealth of campaigning experience to the role.

The regeneration of Castlegate took another step forward yesterday as work to uncover the River Sheaf began. The Sheaf at Castlegate will see daylight for the first time in over 100 years. Next to the river, a new park on the site of the former Sheffield castle is being created.

Powerful case from @JakeBenRichards to end the suffering caused by the current law and give terminally ill people control at the end of their lives with comprehensive safeguards.

This Parliament must seize the opportunity to carefully shape the law on assisted dying. The status quo is messy, unfair and leads to terrible misery. My plea to colleagues, for @LabourList , as the process of changing the law begins.

So moved by this message today. One diplomats will share around the world But most of all a sincere tribute to students themselves. “These people are brave… They take a leap of faith. I am enormously proud so many want to take that leap here in the UK.”

Justice has taken far too long for the Windrush generation. The next Labour government will work with Windrush victims and families and urgently reform the compensation scheme, putting respect and dignity at its core.

These are disgraceful comments, which reveal the true face of Nigel Farage: a Putin apologist who should never be trusted with our nation's security. 1/3
