Here in Tooting, we are lucky to have the River Wandle, a delicate ecosystem that provides a refuge from the hustle and bustle of city life. I have been engaging with the Environment Agency following reports of an oil spill. Read the latest update here: drrosena.co.uk/news/wandle-oil-spill

Last week, along with @rcem.ac.uk, we have launched the APPG on Emergency Care. We will bring together a cross-party group of MPs with experts to fight for better patient experience in A&Es across the country.

Keeping active is important to me and I'm inspired by all those in Tooting who give back through sport. The Wandsworth Moves Together Awards are open for nominations - celebrate the local athletes, coaches, and groups who inspire you. enablelc.org/wmta

It was a pleasure to speak with Sixth Form students this morning at Ernest Bevin Academy. We discussed their plans for the future and what they want to see from a Labour government.

Donald Trump's plans for Gaza are nothing short of ethnic cleansing and the UK must stand up to this flagrant violation of international law. I have written to the Foreign Secretary, along with Parliamentary colleagues, for assurance that the Government will stand against this.

February is LGBT+ History Month. With this year's theme being activism and social change, now is the time to remember all those who have put their heads above the parapet and fought against homophobia, biphobia and transphobia. We must always stand against hatred.

While I don't doubt that Heathrow expansion will boost growth, I can't support it. The impact it will have on residents under the flight path cannot be ignored. However, I do support Gatwick expansion - it'll be quicker and cheaper with less noise and air pollution for locals.

To everyone celebrating in Tooting and around the country, I warmly wish you a very Happy Lunar New Year. May the Year of the Snake bring joy, success and prosperity in all walks of life.

I am thrilled to be appointed as UK Trade Envoy to South Africa and Mauritius. This is a brilliant opportunity to build on our nations' existing ties, unlock growth and forge new investments. questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-stat...

Yesterday, I spoke with Vanessa Feltz on @lbc.co.uk about the Auschwitz commemoration. History must never repeat itself - we all have a duty both to the survivors and the millions of Jews who were systematically murdered by the Nazis.

Yesterday, on Holocaust Memorial Day, I was at Auschwitz commemorating 80 years since its liberation. The day serves as a stark reminder of the sheer evil that led to the murder of 6 million Jews. We remember them and promise to never forget the horrors they faced.

Here today marking the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz. Over a million people were murdered here by the Nazi regime, a million of them Jews. We must never forget the horrors of the Holocaust.

The statements and evidence read out in court today are absolutely harrowing. The victims and their families will be left with everlasting scars from these atrocities. We in Tooting hold the people of Southport in our hearts at this incredibly difficult time.

Musk has been doing everything in his power to sow division and embolden the far-right. His fascist salute the other day exposes his true colours. It beggars belief that someone so close to a US President would behave this way.

Lack of staff âś… Poor quality CCTV âś… No netting âś… Is it any wonder there is so many drone drops at Wandsworth Prison resulting smuggling of contraband items? Recently I addressed this in Parliament.

What fresh hell is this?

It's finally Friday and what better way to prepare for the weekend than by reading my latest column in the South London Press. Read my article on the steps Labour are taking, both nationally and locally, to tackle the housing crisis👇 edition.pagesuite-professional.co.uk/html5/reader...

Today I voted to: ❌End no-fault evictions 💷Stop renters being ripped off by upfront payments 🏠Protect the rights of renters This Labour Government will stand up for renters.

Neighbourhood police teams are right at the heart of keeping our communities safe. After 14 years of Tory cuts to police numbers, I asked the Home Secretary today for assurance that community policing will be key for this Labour Government.

Starting the New Year with a clear-out? Tomorrow is the first Mega Skip Day of 2025 - your chance to dispose of bulky items for free. Skips can be found in Balham, Earlsfield and Furzedown:

Our NHS is under huge pressure. While last year was the busiest ever for A&E, my colleagues and I on the frontline will always put patients first. The Tories let winter crises become the norm. This Labour Government will break the cycle. www.england.nhs.uk/2025/01/busi...

"Remember us" - the words of a doctor at Al-Awda Hospital in Gaza. The bravery and dedication of Gaza's doctors is beyond admirable. A ceasefire is the only way to bring peace. We owe it to the families, the children and the medical staff to put an end to the horror.

The lack of good quality and affordable social care creates backlogs in hospitals - we doctors see it on every shift, all too often. I welcome the Government's plans to reform social care.

Across our community, there are many who will be struggling during this colder weather. That is why Wandsworth Foodbank has launched their Warm Winter Appeal. If you can, please donate here: www.justgiving.com/campaign/giv...

Sadiq has done Tooting and London proud. I know many in our local community and the wider city look up to him. He rightly deserves to be honoured with a knighthood. Congratulations!

The team at Wandsworth Foodbank have launched a Warm Winter Appeal to help struggling families with their utility bills during the colder months. If you can, please donate here: www.justgiving.com/campaign/giv...

Tooting is a community jam-packed with culture. With Wandsworth being named as London Borough of Culture 2025, we'll soon have the opportunity to show off everything we have to offer. What is your favourite place to go out in Tooting?"

I know Tooting is a community defined by its commitment to helping each other. This year, if you can, please consider supporting Wandsworth Foodbank's Warm Winter Appeal through the link below: www.justgiving.com/campaign/giv...

This Christmas the team at Ronald McDonald House are doing incredible work supporting families with children at St George’s Hospital. It was fantastic to visit and thank all the staff for their hard work and dedication.

Christmas can be a time of joy, but it can also bring challenges—whether it’s staying warm, putting food on the table, managing mental health pressures. Remember, you’re not alone. Local charities and support groups are here to help.

Recently, I hosted the SME4Labour Awards Dinner. Small and independent businesses are the backbone of our economy and the heart of highstreets across the country. It was an honour to recognise the hard work of independent entrepreneurs, lead the evening and hand out awards.

So honoured to join the young singers of Balham Nursery this week for their Christmas singalong! The new head, Natasha, and the wider nursery community are doing fantastic work building confidence and pride in their students.

All of us are looking forwards to Christmas, but for some this time of year can be incredibly worrying. Wandsworth Foodbank on Mitcham Lane support struggling families with food and fuel poverty. Please donate to their Warmer Winter appeal here: www.justgiving.com/campaign/giv...
