Since announcing my diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer a few weeks ago I’ve become increasingly aware of how misunderstood the condition is.
So I want to debunk a few misconceptions:

A Labour MP who is campaigning for 3D-printed guns to be outlawed has welcomed the Home Office announcement that new laws are coming to clamp down on them
@preetkgillmp.bsky.social told PolHome she was concerned that the "sophisticated" weapons could become a growing "trend" in the UK
The Home Office has said it will introduce legislation to clamp down on 3D-printed guns
Labour MP @preetkgillmp.bsky.social spoke to @politicshome.bsky.social about her Bill to close a “really bizarre” loophole in the law
www.politicshome.com/news/article...
@preetkgillmp.bsky.social said the use of 3D- printed/ ghost guns are not just for “imitation”.
“They can kill, they can seriously harm somebody.”

Including Jews in ethnicity-based monitoring was one of the recommendations I made in Everyday Hate - we can't tackle antisemitism if we don't measure it properly.
We strongly support this Bill, which we believe will go a long way towards addressing statistical aberrances which have arisen through many Jewish people slipping through the cracks in terms of data collection. We thank Preet Kaur Gill MP for bringing this issue to Parliament's attention.
Despite there being a gene mutation strongly connected with breast cancer in Ashkenazi Jewish women we don’t appear on the ethnic monitoring forms at breast screening. So I strongly support this bill.
I'm astonished this data wasn't collected before: two well-defined and distinctive groups and apparently HMG basically ignored their existence.
Despite being legally recognised as ethnic groups for over 40 years, public bodies don't collect data on Jewish and Sikh people to monitor inequalities and deliver public services.
It makes our communities invisible to policymakers.
Today I am introducing a Bill to change that.
