Speaking to people in Stafford today, it was clear: they want change. They want to stop the Tory chaos which is costing working people through higher taxes, soaring mortgages and crippling energy bills. Only Labour will deliver economic security. Vote for it on Thursday 4 July.

In light of the £500m rumoured to be suddenly appearing today (around 1/8 of what’s needed), please can I point you toward this graph from Barnet Council. Remember it when you vote in the next general election. Systemic defunding of services has always been a political choice

It’s been more than a decade since Barnet Council predicted that care services for the elderly & services that protect vulnerable children would take up so much of their budget that there would be no money left to fund other local services It’s happening across England right now

Across the country, people put their faith in Labour to deliver us from the continued Conservative chaos. Our Metro mayors, councillors and Police and Crime Commissioners will work hard, to deliver that change our country so desperately needs. #generalelectionnow #votelabour

We asked people if they were better off than they were 14 years ago, and their answers were clear The Tories have failed our economy and left working people worse off. Its time for a change🌹

. @UKLabour ’s message to @David_Cameron and @RishiSunak ’s @Conservatives is clear. Publish the legal advice now. If it says there is a clear risk that UK arms might be used in a serious breach of international humanitarian law, it's time to suspend the sale of those arms.

It’s 5 years today since one of the best people I know had a lung transplant. The lease of life it’s given him, and his amazing family, is unbelievable. Please take 2 mins today to sign up to be an organ donor, and let your family know your decision @NHSOrganDonor @NHSBT

I agree with @wesstreeting that Frank Hester’s comments are utterly revolting. Rishi Sunak must immediately return the donations.

At this point it’s probably more helpful to point out any Conservative plan, for any sector, which experts think might work. Going through the ones which no one has any faith in will take us all day! #GeneralElectionlNow #VoteLabour

I know I say this a lot, but this is not a serious government. We’re in a country where nothing works, and this man has decided to invent a ‘war on drivers’ to fight. We need a general election now.

We are a nation of drivers. Most of us use a car every day and, for many, life would be difficult without their car. But too often, drivers feel under attack. That changes today with a long-term plan to improve drivers' experience on the road. Here’s how 👇🧵

Shocked, I tell you, shocked that a plan announced with no engagement with the sector, and without putting the proper support in place to implement it, is failing. This is a hugely important piece of infrastructure for Uk parents. It’s not good enough to work in this way.

Had the best weekend enjoying some fundraiser fun, meeting amazing and inspiring women, and learning new skills - some more successfully than others 😬 For as RBG famously said, ‘Women belong in all places where decisions are being made, and where there are tiles to be grouted’

Yet Tory govt have responded to this unprecedented crisis by pushing more cuts through LG budgets from 25/26 onwards. I look round and I don’t even know what they’re trying to achieve. Is it just scorched earth at this point? General election now 🌹🌹🌹

Hunt’s comment is so weird. His government passed a Cross party amendment which stated that childcare should be classed as infrastructure, like roads or schools are. We know that childcare is essential to the wellbeing families, as well as local and national economies.

The Chancellor thinks knowing how many nurseries and childcare places there are would be like “Stalinist Russia”. Does he think Ofsted should stop counting to hide the fact that childcare provider numbers have fallen 3,316 in a year?
