Jess Phillips, a Labour, protested that Sir Jeffrey Donaldson, who resigned as the head of the Democratic Unionist Party last week after being arrested and charged, could still go into Parliament under current access laws. Ms Phillips wrote on X: So entirely normal for a man accused of rape to jump in a lift alone with me or my staff.' Sir Jeffrey, who has said he will vigorously protest the charges, has refused to attend Westminster last night, according to Commons reports. New laws that would automatically exclude MPs from receiving allegations of assault or sexual assault are yet to be voted on by the Commons.

The women who refuse to be silenced: She has been plagued, has been 'cancelled,' on television, and mocked by fellow MPs. MP ROSIE DUFFIELD unites a combat-hardened group of campaigners in a rousing call to arms against those who wish to eliminate women

ROSIE DUFFIELD: For more than a century, International Women's Day (IWD) has been celebrated around the world to highlight ordinary women's extraordinary accomplishments. On March 8, I used to think it was a good day. However, this year, I just got angry. Although proud of the changes we've made, we find ourselves on a new front - and in the unimaginable situation of seeing hard-won rights being rolled back. We're at a point where even the word "woman" is in doubt. We've become 'cervix-havers,' 'uterus-owners,' and in some cases, 'non-men'. Politicians, meanwhile, flounder when asked: 'What is a woman?' It makes me sad that I am both an MP and a mother. The reluctance to protect women and girls is due to a select but vocal group of trans activists who are determined to encourage males to identify as women under the disguise of 'gender ideology.'

After the extraordinary Commons revolt last night, where 56 of his MPs defied him to back an SNP motion, Keir Starmer issued a statement, but he hasn't seen cameras. Rather, shadow defense secretary John Healey toured studios this morning, insisting that Labour should move as if it is still in government. However, there are fears that the rebellion will grow outward and jeopardize the party's election hopes. According to a Savanta poll, 55% of Muslim Labour supporters from 2019 are dissatisfied with Sir Keir's handling of the Israel crisis. Jess Phillips, a former minister of Scotland, was one of the frontbenchers to drop out on an amendment table drafted by the Scottish nationalists after breaking a three-line whip to abstain on an amendment table.

Jess Phillips, the latest blow to Sir Keir Starmer's attempt for coalition at the top of his party, wondered if the assassination of civilians would provide long-term protection for Israelis. The shadow minister denied the suggestion that Israel is shielding itself by leaving Hamas for the atrocity on October 7. "I personally don't see hundreds killing hundreds, and what will turn out to be tens of thousands of civilians within a few short weeks, as a military threat that leads to any kind of long-term defense for Israeli civilians," she said.

After being put into a COMA suffering from sepsis and multiple organ dysfunction, Tory MP Craig Mackinlay says he is on the 'long road to recovery'

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 30, 2023
After suffering from sepsis, Tory MP Craig Mackinlay has detailed how he was put into a sepsis-induced coma. After being rushed to hospital at the end of last month with the life-threatening illness, the MP for South Thanet said he was now'on a slow road to recovery. Following the revelation of his ordeal, the Prime Minister was among a slew of politicians from both parties to wish the 57-year-old's well wishes. Mr Mackinlay said that while recovering, his constituents in Kent will continue to be served by his office employees. Sepsis, also known as septicaemia or blood poisoning, occurs when a person's immune system responds to an infection. It then begins to damage your body's own tissues and organs. Mr Mackinlay wrote on Sunday, "I was rushed into hospital with the possibility of sepsis on Thursday." This was certainly correct, and I was put into an induced coma with multiple organ dysfunctions.' All NHS workers have been outstanding, and I can't say enough.' 'I am now on a slow road to recovery with services provided to constituents that have been maintained by my East Kent and London offices.'

Although publicly opposing their leader, Labour frontbenchers protesting Sir Keir Starmer's position on Israel will not be fired, according to a shadow minister, who said today that Labour frontbenchers protesting against Israel's leadership would not be fired. Although Peter Kyle, the shadow science minister, said that party bosses would'continue cooperating' with a growing number of rebels, they will not be disciplined. Following Labour's assassination of Israel's war on Hamas, Labour has been put into shamas. Sir Keir has called for a humanitarian halt in the war to ensure that humanitarian assistance to Palestinian civilians in Gaza be sent, a move that has also been taken by both the Government and the United States. Despite the terror atrocities, Labour leader Ed Miliband has continued to support Israel's right to defend itself. He is now being confronted with open opposition from senior party figures who are calling for a complete shutdown of Israel and Hamas. In recent days, a slew of shadow ministers have joined Sir Keir to announce their support for a ceasefire in Gaza. Naz Shah, Paula Barker, Afzal Khan, Rachel Hopkins, Jess Phillips, and Sarah Owen are among them. Greater Manchester mayor Andy Burnham, London mayor Sadiq Khan, and Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar are among those calling for a ceasefire, although a number of local councillors have resigned in protest against Sir Keir's defiance.

MPs are fighting over the Equality Act's rewrite

Last night, ministers screamed that the equality law will be amended quickly to protect women's rights. The government should rewrite the Equality Act 2010 on the basis of biological sex rather than gender identity, according to a tense Parliamentary debate, which would exclude transgender people from female-only spaces. Maria Caulfield, the Women's Minister, told MPs: "These topics under discussion today are complicated, and we must proceed carefully and respectfully." "It's only right and proper that we take prompt note of the information we have been given."

Last night, Labour and the BBC were chastised for the clout they gave to Coronation protesters (left and right), amid a republican backlash against hundreds of 'heavy-handed' police arrests.

During the celebrations in central London, 52 demonstrators were arrested, including activists from Just Stop Oil and Animal Rising groups. Jess Phillips, the Opposition front bench home affairs spokesperson, was one of Labour MPs who expressed reservations about the Metropolitan Police's (officers) (not My King) tactics on Saturday, with some officers pictured packing away 'Not My King' placards top right) tactics.

Proposal to anonymize criminals before they are arrested by victims' charities

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 5, 2022
Victims' organizations have condemned the Home Secretary's statement that she might consider providing anonymity to witnesses before they are charged with a felony. Suella Braverman believes that naming people who are suspected of a felony but who have not been charged could result in a'media circus' and possibly jeopardize a fair hearing. However, charities such as Victim Support (CEO in inset) said banning the names of those being investigated by the police discourages other victims from coming forward with potentially new information, implying that more crimes could be missed.'
