The names of 19 women believed to have been killed by their sons in the past year were read aloud in Parliament on Thursday.

For the 11th year running, Labour MP Jess Phillips read out the names of 108 women killed in the UK by a man – or where a man has been charged – over the past 12 months.

It comes as new research, led by the Femicide Census sister project Counting Dead Women, showed that almost one in five women killed by men since last International Women’s Day were suspected victims of matricide.

The figure marks the highest matricide rate recorded in 16 years of Femicide Census data.

As with previous years, Phillips, the MP for Birmingham Yardley, had to request special permission to exceed the usual speaking limit in the parliamentary debate, as reading the names alone takes longer than the five minutes normally allocated to MPs.

Speaking in Parliament on Thursday, Phillips said: “The scale of violence against women and girls shames our society.”

After finishing the list, she added: “There is always a name that has to be written on as I come in – to give you an idea of the regularity".

One name had to be added to the list moments before Phillips entered Parliament, conveying the frequency of such crimes.

Respect to Ginge for this 👏

Lewis Capaldi has done something really amazing. After taking 734 days off to focus on his own mental health, he’s now giving back in a big way, donating 734,000 hours of free online therapy to fans.

It’s a powerful reminder that taking care of yourself isn’t selfish, and that therapy can make a real difference. Respect to him for being open about his struggles and turning that journey into something that can help others.

Mental health matters, and gestures like this make the conversation a little easier for everyone.

| Technology is advancing at an incredible pace, and our children are growing up in a digital world filled with apps that connect, entertain, and educate. While many of these apps offer positive experiences, it's important for parents and carers to understand what apps children are using and how they’re being used.

The image below shows a selection of popular apps among young people today, along with their primary functions – from messaging and gaming to sharing videos and live streaming.

🔍 Why this matters:

- Children may be exposed to inappropriate content, online strangers, or peer pressure through these platforms.
- Some apps have hidden features like disappearing messages or location sharing.
- Many apps are designed to be highly engaging, which can lead to excessive screen time.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 What you can do:

- Talk regularly with your child about the apps they use.
- Set boundaries around screen time and app usage.
- Use parental controls and privacy settings where available.
- Stay informed – knowing what each app does helps you guide your child safely.

📱 Apps not on the image below:

- Wizz: A social networking app aimed at teenagers and young adults. It allows young people to meet new people through chats and messaging, often based on shared interests.

- Tinder: A popular adult dating app where people swipe right to like or left to pass on other people's profiles. It’s used for both casual dating and more serious relationships - it is not appropriate for children.

- Grindr: A location-based social networking and dating app primarily for the LGBTQ+ community, often for dating or meet-ups - it is not appropriate for children.

Social action is important to me.

I have decided to do a charity skydive in aid of the Alzheimer's Society. My grandma has Alzheimer's and it is a charity that means something to me.

If anyone can spare a few quid to help me reach my target, I would be very grateful!

My kids will be there cheering me on!
