Starmer launches push for Israel-Gaza peace based on path to Good Friday Agreement Exclusive: As a fragile ceasefire holds in Gaza, No 10 is keen to promote steps that helped bring peace in Northern Ireland

Great to see @Keir_Starmer taking the lead on delivering a long term plan for peace between Israelis and Palestinians www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Today could be the day we have all been fighting for - the day that Emily is reunited with her incredible mother, Mandy. Until she is free and safely home no one will rest but we are so close now.

Happy New Year. Wishing you all a prosperous 2025! 🍻

Happy Chanukah to all celebrating in the UK and around the world.

May the festival of light this year shine a light into the darkness and bring home Emily Damari and all the hostages.

Merry Christmas from my family to yours.

(Hopefully yours did not start at 5am this morning).

Starmer inspired by Northern Ireland to launch project for peace in Israel-Gaza Sir Keir Starmer has announced Britain will lead an international initiative to bring peace to the Middle East

As we wait for Christmas and Chanukah, hopes for peace in the Middle East are never more welcome. This is very important leadership from the Prime Minister. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Profoundly moving to meet Mandy Damari, mother of 28-year-old Emily, the last remaining British hostage held by Hamas for 424 days.

The hostages must urgently receive humanitarian care and support, and their release must be an essential part of the ceasefire in Gaza we all want to see.

They’ve taken to flattery to try to get me to go back to X

Great to meet with Claire Ward - East Midlands Mayor - in Glossop this morning to discuss regional economic priorities, including transport, tourism and green energy & technologies.

Livestock are treated better than commuters in High Peak.

The services provided by Northern are not good enough. Cancellations, delays & overcrowding are commonplace.

I’ll be raising these issues at a meeting with management at Northern.

We need improvement & fast.

At PMQs today Kemi Badenoch confirmed that under her leadership the Tories have not and will not change. Kemi wants the spending commitments without having to take the difficult decisions to fund them. Same old broken, fantasy, two-faced Tory economics.

Looks like Blue Sky is the new VHS tonight. Let’s get this party started.
