Good to see Shabana Mahmood is sitting next to the Prime Minister at PMQs
And here we have a cabinet minister openly undermining the home secretary and by extension the PM All for a broad church approach and listening to various voices but once again Miatta Fahnbulleh demonstrates appalling judgment and demonstrates why she shouldn’t be in the cabinet
@PaulMcAweney I care Cabinet ministers are rightly bound by collective responsibility And if you think that was “just gotcha interviewing” we will probably not agree on much
And here we have a cabinet minister openly undermining the home secretary and by extension the PM All for a broad church approach and listening to various voices but once again Miatta Fahnbulleh demonstrates appalling judgment and demonstrates why she shouldn’t be in the cabinet
Normally wouldn't post an interview transcript of this length, but if you're interested in keeping tabs on Cabinet support for Shabana Mahmood's immigration reforms, this is worth a read from Energy Secretary Miatta Fahnbulleh Sophy Ridge: Just to be crystal clear: Do you
In my conversations with the @10DowningStreet and the Chancellor, I have been very clear that whilst we of course support net zero, we cannot have a jobless transition, abandon our energy security or offshore our carbon responsibilities. That is why we have argued for this decision on Jackdaw. This gives us a bit more time to create and fund a concrete plan for commensurate jobs for workers currently working in the North Sea. Now we urgently need to use that and invest in industries like wind turbine manufacture and refining green jet fuel. We simply cannot let go of one rope until we have hold of another.
Energy Secretary @Miatsf has agreed that the regulator can grant consent for gas to be produced at the licensed Jackdaw field. Gas from Jackdaw is expected to start reaching British homes and businesses as early as the end of this month.
There’s currently 180k people in the queue for Bayern Tapestry tickets 🤯
The Home Secretary is a once in a generation reformer. Every minister in @andyburnham’s govt needs to back her 100%.
Energy Sec refuses to answer, multiple times, whether she backs the government's immigration proposal. 🗣️ @SophyRidgeSky asks - "Do you support plans for people to live in the UK for 15 years before they get permanent residency?"

@vcg239 Hope she is ok
And no one will convince me this isn’t just another attack on behalf of Miliband (Ed)
Of course it is just my opinion and others can disagree Fahnbulleh is bright, a great policy thinker but terrible at politics Spent her years as a minister coordinating plots against Starmer Ill advisedly launched a petition to the government she is a member of and now this
As the first Labour MP to say we should move ahead with Jackdaw, I’m pleased to see this sensible decision.

@fatdafevy @nicolelampert That is wrong Best not rely on out-of-date news camdennewjournal.co.uk/article/james-…
NEW: UK Counter-Terrorism Policing have re-arrested two men in the RAF Fairford investigation on suspicion of assisting the Iranian intelligence services A 24-year-old UK national and a 25-year-old dual UK/ Iranian national, both from the Borough of Westminster, London, have been arrested under the National Security Act The 24-year-old man was initially arrested on Sunday 27 September near RAF Fairford, Gloucestershire, and the 25-year-old was subsequently arrested on Thursday 1 October in the Borough of Westminster, London Head of National Counter Terrorism Policing in the UK, Assistant Commissioner Laurence Taylor, said: “Since the events at RAF Fairford on Sunday 27 September, our specialist teams have been working tirelessly to interrogate the many lines of enquiry involved in this hugely complex investigation. “So far seven men have been arrested in connection with our investigation. “As a result of the ongoing efforts of our officers, earlier today two of those men were re-arrested for offences relating to Section 3 of the National Security Act - assisting a foreign intelligence service. “This is very much a live investigation, and our evidence gathering continues, but at this time our position remains the same; we consider it highly likely that there is Iranian state involvement. Our investigators are continuing to examine what that level of involvement was and the ambition behind it. “Due to their sensitive nature, national security investigations can take time to progress, and I'm grateful to everyone who has given my teams the time and space needed to pursue this work thoroughly and effectively. “From the outset our priority has been to uphold the integrity of this investigation and hold those who wish to do our country harm, accountable. "We know the public have unanswered questions. I want to be as transparent as possible and when we are in the position to share more, we will.”
I honestly can’t remember when or where I got this It has been tucked away in a box …
