To mark #HolocaustMemorialDay I will be lighting a candle and placing it in my window at 8pm to #LightTheDarkness. We remember those who were murdered for who they were, and stand against hatred and prejudice in the world today.

Well done to @unitetheunion and its British Airways members for ending the use of fire and rehire at the company. Fire and rehire is a shameful practice. The government must legislate to end it now. — PolitiTweet.org

100,000 deaths. The Prime Minister needs to learn the lessons, not repeat the same mistakes. #PMQs https://t.co/dRFuSkvWKd — PolitiTweet.org

It takes more than words for good to triumph over evil, knowledge over ignorance and love over hate: it takes action. This year should give us hope. Let's all recommit to being a force for good in the world, to work to prevent future atrocities and be the light in the darkness. — PolitiTweet.org

Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer

This year the theme is ‘be the light in the darkness’. The world has experienced a lot of darkness in 2020 – but we have also seen many examples of light. Neighbours caring for one another, communities coming together, people making sacrifices to protect the vulnerable. — PolitiTweet.org

But even after the murder of six million Jews in Europe, genocides and persecution still take place around the world. And as the Holocaust recedes from living memory, it is more important than ever that we remember on Holocaust Memorial Day. — PolitiTweet.org

Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer

Never again. That was the promise the world made after the horror of the Holocaust was unveiled. The promise we would not let the appalling suffering experienced by Jewish people be repeated. #HolocaustMemorialDay — PolitiTweet.org

The news that 100,000 people have now died of coronavirus is a national tragedy. https://t.co/MK7XDBrWWv — PolitiTweet.org

Really looking forward to @mylifemysay's event this Thursday. @MunyaChawawa and @SwarzyMacaly will be asking me your questions. Let us know what you want to ask here: https://t.co/cCvYY1qM3j https://t.co/rRaZtNYlFe — PolitiTweet.org

Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer

Millions of people are worried about the future of their jobs and how they'll make ends meet. Yet Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak are forcing council tax rises. Tonight the Conservatives can vote with Labour to protect family budgets and secure the economy. https://t.co/353xvGzyz4 — PolitiTweet.org

Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer

Insecurity is rife throughout much of our economy. This pandemic has to be a turning point where working people have their rights at work strengthened, not threatened. https://t.co/zHGyueNW1Q — PolitiTweet.org

This year the Labour Party will celebrate Burns Night with our first ever online Burns supper. We dedicate thanks to the extraordinary hard work and sacrifice of everyone in our NHS and frontline workers right across Scotland. https://t.co/sDdTnQxM0N — PolitiTweet.org

It was a privilege to speak at the @wienerlibrary Holocaust Memorial Day event this morning and listen to testimonies from their collection. We must continue to tell these stories and use the lessons of history to tackle today's challenges. — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks @DavePrentis for all you’ve done for the Labour movement. All the best wishes for the future. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s difficult to find words to express the tragedy at the number of people dying every day to this terrible virus. Thank you to all on the front line, working so hard to keep us safe. https://t.co/g38BpN8siV — PolitiTweet.org

I'm meeting with Scotch Whisky producers today. After failing with Trump, the Government must work with President Biden to ensure tariffs are lifted and Scottish jobs are protected. https://t.co/usDFX7Ok2C — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris. The US begins a new chapter in its history, one of hope, decency, compassion and strength. Together, our two nations can build a better, more optimistic future for our world. — PolitiTweet.org

The Prime Minister left our nation’s borders open while strands of coronavirus were being imported from overseas. #PMQs https://t.co/yMailQOv3N — PolitiTweet.org

In December, I was in Doncaster to call for a taskforce to be set up to protect areas which are prone to flooding. These flood-hit communities can't be let down again. https://t.co/KEpiaNvvKM — PolitiTweet.org

The UK has faced the deepest recession of any major economy, and now we have the highest daily death rate in the world. The British people are paying the price for the Government’s serial incompetence. https://t.co/9MDKxLG6Y7 — PolitiTweet.org

Labour condemns the persecution of the Uyghur community in China. We will be supporting amendments in Parliament today to ensure Britain never turns a blind eye to genocide. — PolitiTweet.org
