This is the difference a Labour government can make. Change will only happen if you vote for the NHS and vote Labour on Thursday 4 July.

Patrick Vallance has said that we need to end the era of high energy bills and energy insecurity by investing in clean homegrown power The Labour Party agrees. That is why we have a plan to make Britain a clean energy superpower, so we can cut bills and make our country secure

Jonathan Ashworth, "Rishi Sunak's failure to suspend these people.. One of these people has admitted he made an error of judgment..." "He's so weak, he couldn't knock the skin off a rice pudding" That's the first time I've heard this particular insult @JonAshworth - learn

I have written to Andrew Rhodes, Chief Executive of the Gambling Commission, asking for maximum disclosure in the public interest of the Tory insider betting scandal. And to confirm there is nothing stopping Government Ministers from declaring if they bet on the election date.

Why I back @Keir_Starmer to be our next #PM as Former Deputy Chairman of the #Conservatives (London) & #Tory Parliamentary Candidate. #KeirStarmer has changed @UKLabour for the better. He will change our country for the better. I urge all to #VoteLabour for #Change on July 4th.

They ripped off the taxpayer with PPE crony contracts. More raves in Downing Street than Ibiza through lockdown. Top Tories with insider knowledge now betting on the election date. One rule for them another for the rest of us. It’s time for change.

A vote for Labour on Thursday 4 July is a vote to clean up our waters and our politics.  Change will only come if you vote for it.

Don’t fall for the Tories encouraging people not to vote. Change will only happen if you vote for it. 🌹 No way is Britain’s general election a done deal. Polls disguise huge uncertainty My piece in Observer.

Don’t take anything for granted in this election. Tories will fight dirty for every vote. I sat down with @johnestevens at @DailyMirror to talk: ▪️why my dad’s drinking drive me to make a difference ▪️I’ll always fight for people in Leicester South.

It doesn't matter what a Tory candidate is accused of – dog-whistle racism, anti-Semitic cartoons, lying to Parliament, even using inside knowledge to bet on the election date – we've reached a point where Rishi Sunak is too weak to suspend any of them.

Ignore the polls. Ignore Tories trying to suppress turnout. Don’t assume anything about the result. Keep working. Keep fighting for every vote. Don’t stop. 🌹 Pat McFadden: the most influential politician you’ve never heard of?

Rishi Sunak’s argument seems to be that we’re all paying a very heavy price for his NHS failure. Spot the difference.
