• 27 Sep 2024 Parks are spaces of social change that can contribute to a positive sense of neighbourhood & proactively tackling climate change. I recently visited & spoke with groups at Tower Hamlets Cemetary Park and learnt about the challenges faced in both protecting & sharing the space ???? https://twitter.com/ApsanaBegumMP/status/1839688897149718886/photo/1 [Source]
• 06 Sep 2024 Climate change is rife with injustice & inequality, with the least polluting countries at the sharp end of the chaos. Bangladesh is continuing to grapple with the worst floods in its history. I attended an insightful briefing from @OxfaminBD on ongoing efforts on the frontline. https://twitter.com/ApsanaBegumMP/status/1832124147347980537/photo/1 [Source]
• 05 Jun 2022 Community gardens are spaces of social change, contributing to a positive sense of neighbourhood and proactively tackling climate change???? Pleased to help declare open the Jubilee Orchard at the Barkantine Estate along with community groups, stakeholders & representatives today. https://twitter.com/ApsanaBegumMP/status/1533535420000116737/photo/1 [Source]
• 19 May 2022 Instead of taking action to address the cost-of-living crisis and injustices like racism and climate breakdown, the government want to stop people sounding the alarm???? My latest for @LabourOutlook???????? http://labouroutlook.org/2022/05/19/as-the-cost-of-living-crisis-bites-the-tories-are-more-interested-in-shutting-down-our-rights-apsana-begum-mp/ [Source]
• 17 Jan 2022 The #PolicingBill is being voted on in the Lords tonight. It’s the govt’s response to the most effective protests of recent years: #BlackLivesMatter & the climate crisis. The Tories shouldn’t be given more power over our rights to challenge their agenda. https://twitter.com/ApsanaBegumMP/status/1371868865286840326/video/1 [Source]
• 05 Nov 2021 Just as we call for fair transition to a UK green economy, we must also call for support for climate vulnerable countries such as Bangladesh. This week during #COP26 I attended a celebration to mark 50 years of Bangladesh’s independence & met the Prime Minister HE Sheikh Hasina. https://twitter.com/ApsanaBegumMP/status/1456660162974998532/photo/1 [Source]
• 04 Nov 2021 .@miaamormottley is exactly right. The ongoing failure to provide enough funding to those on the frontlines of climate change is "measured in lives and livelihoods” and is "immoral" & "unjust". #COP26 https://twitter.com/tv6tnt/status/1455225256491298819/video/1 [Source]
• 21 Oct 2021 As a supporter of the CEE Bill, I'm backing #ZeroHour's COP campaign, which calls on @BorisJohnson to make a joint emergency strategy for climate and nature at #COP26 and #COP15 — as the PM said, "it's time to listen to the warnings of the scientists" ???? @CEEbill_NOW https://twitter.com/ApsanaBegumMP/status/1451178562526990342/photo/1 [Source]
• 16 Sep 2021 The greatest crisis we face is the climate crisis. Yet 21 local Labour parties and Labour members are being denied their rights to debate the Labour for a Green New Deal motion at Conference. This is an appalling decision that should be reversed immediately. [Source]
• 13 Jul 2021 I’m voting @SteveT_Unite to become General Secretary of @unitetheunion for well paid green jobs helping to tackle the climate crisis for all our members ???? ➡️ Find out more about his greenprint for jobs campaign at http://steveturner4gs.org/news/greenprint https://twitter.com/ApsanaBegumMP/status/1414843598542082054/photo/1 [Source]
• 05 Jul 2021 It was climate activists whose unrelenting protests forced governments around the world to begin taking steps to tackle the climate emergency. That’s the power of protest. That is what our govt are proposing to suppress through the #PoliceCrackdownBill https://twitter.com/MLopezSanMartin/status/1411059695503261697/video/1 [Source]
• 05 Jul 2021 The timing of the #PoliceCrackdownBill was never a coincidence. This Bill is a direct response by the Govt to the most effective & organised protests in the past year: #BLM & the climate emergency. The Govt shouldn’t be given more power over our right to challenge their agenda. [Source]
• 17 Jun 2021 The @theCCCuk report is yet more evidence that the Tories are failing our people & our planet: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-57487943?utm_source=HOC+Library+-+Current+awareness+bulletins&utm_campaign=eb3eadff32-SES-current-awareness-16-06-21&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f325cdbfdc-eb3eadff32-104047941&mc_cid=eb3eadff32&mc_eid=15becc1522 We urgently need a #GreenNewDeal based on public ownership & renewable energy - investing public transport & energy efficient housin [Source]
• 10 Jun 2021 Flying from London to Cornwall is just another example in a long list that illustrates how fundamentally unserious Boris Johnson is about solving the climate crisis. https://twitter.com/BorisJohnson/status/1402659741738885120 [Source]
• 04 Jun 2021 It is alarming that, according to the @The_TUC, the UK is lagging behind international peers in relation to the green recovery - ranking 6th of all G7 countries. We have to address the climate emergency as a matter of urgency! https://bit.ly/3uSiZPj [Source]
• 14 Mar 2021 Both the #PoliceCrackdownBill & #SpyCopsBill embolden male violence by public agencies. But they also propose to repress trade union, climate emergency & anti-racist activity. The #PCSCBill singles out traveller communities. Our activism must be intersectional. [Source]

• 24 Oct 2019 Labour has the practical solutions needed to reach a net-zero carbon economy 20 years ahead of the government’s 2050 target.
