Huge thank you to all the Young @LabourNorth members who came to today's campaign day in Newcastle for @KiMcGuinness and @Milo_Barnett! So proud of the contribution of young members to this year's local elections campaign! 🌹

I thought nothing could shock me about the state of the Conservative Party, but that was before I had to sit through Christopher Chope MP opining about whether mothers can lead political parties. 🦖 I hope Robert Jenrick distances himself from these unhinged comments.
NEW: Conservative MP Sir Christopher Chope says Kemi Badenoch is “preoccupied with her children” and “you can't spend all your time with your family at the same time as being leader of the opposition”. He was speaking on this month's @itvmeridian The Last Word. @itvnewspolitics

EXCL: Senior union official Howard Beckett has lost a claim for unfair dismissal. It comes amid a police investigation concerning Unite the Union. The employment tribunal judgement was published after queries from the BBC. My story with @phill_kemp: bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

What does £63 billion of investment for the UK actually mean? 👇
This week I was elected by my peers to serve on the International Development Committee. The UK used to be respected around the world for our work and expertise in this area, and I believe it is vital for our global standing and security that we get better again.
Great to see first-hand how school-based nurseries are transforming life chances & supporting working parents, with @JosephPowell. Today we begin the work of rolling out a further 3,000 of them across the country as part of our mission to break down the barriers to opportunity.
We're putting passengers first ✅🚆independent.co.uk/news/uk/louise…
This is how @Keir_Starmer is making you better off 👇
We will get drivers a fair deal.
Car insurance is an essential, not a luxury. But the rising cost of cover has hit drivers hard. Today I've launched a taskforce to give this the attention it deserves. We will root out the factors driving up costs to ensure drivers get a fair deal 🚗✅ mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…
Really powerful attending @WorkieTicketTC’s #NoPlaceLikeHyem play and discussion last week focussing on the impact of impact of the cost of living on women and hidden homelessness in the North East
✅ Delivering economic growth ✅ Tackling the housing crisis ✅ Restoring the dream of homeownership
Hard to deny- Labour delivers!
At today's International Investment Summit, @Keir_Starmer secured a record-breaking £63 billion investment for Britain - more than double the amount secured by the Tories last year. Across Britain, this will turbocharge growth, drive innovation, and make people better off.
Labour is not centre-right actually
Current British politics: 🟣 Reform UK - Far-Right 🔵 Tories - Right Wing 🔴 Lab - Centre-right 🟠 LD - Centre 🟡🟣🟢 - SNP, Plaid, and the Greens - Left. Backing a centre right Lab govt has shifted the overton window to the right. We need to shift it back to the left.
It’s been 100 days since this Labour Government took office. Let’s see what we’ve achieved already 👇
This weekend will mark 100 days of @Keir_Starmer’s Labour Government. We are fixing the foundations of our country together. Find an event near you 👇
For 14 years the Tories undermined public services, wrecked our economy, and left you worse off. This Labour Government is getting on with the job and delivering the change Britain needs. Find out what @Keir_Starmer has delivered for you so far 👇 whathaskeirdone.co.uk
