A critical incident has been declared in Hainault. There are station and road closures in place. The Police, Ambulance Service and Fire Brigade are responding.

One male detained.

I would urge people not to speculate until details are confirmed or post footage on social media.

Across the country people are switching to today’s changed Labour Party so we can change Britain together.

Voting Labour on Thursday 2 May is the first step towards a mission-led Labour government.

So happy for my friend.

Have known Dan for years and he would be a superb representative for the great City of Bath!

This is why everyone who is eligible to vote, and wants the Tories out, must vote!

Houchen and Street can pretend they aren't Conservatives, but it just won't wash.

Absolutely shameless. Last week a serving Police Officer told me how angry and disgusted they feel that the person responsible for overseeing Nottinghamshire Police doesn’t respect the law. nottinghampost.com/news/local-new…

Brilliant from Alex Davies-Jones MP on Politics Live!

Outlines a clear 5 point plan on tackling the small boats crossing in reply to Richard Tice.

And in response, Tice outlines a plan which BBC Verify believes is against maritime law!

Only Labour has a serious plan.

BREAKING: Humza Yousaf resigns as First Minister of Scotland, just a year into the job.

'I am not willing to trade my principles or values or do a deal with whomever simply to retain power.'

Big day, as Parliament debates if Assisted Dying should be legalised for those terminally ill, mentally competent & who wish it for themselves. Why on earth do we force dying people to stagger on for a few weeks against their will if they are suffering and want to let go gently?

Susan Hall’s own campaign has removed her from her Party Election Broadcast, so we’ve stepped in to help.

Here she is — the Tory candidate for Mayor — Susan Hall, in her own words.

1 in 4 people experience a mental health problem each year.
The Tories have decided to wage war on all of us. independent.co.uk/news/uk/mel-st…

Time for Holyrood elections.

This SNP drama can't go on with another unelected First Minister.

Give people the chance to elect Anas Sarwar and Scottish Labour .

The next Labour government will not sit on its hands while tens of thousands of people languish on hidden mental health waiting lists. 

With Keir Starmer as Prime Minister, we will give people the support they need.

Every time I hear Sunak say ‘the plan is working’ I think, so you planned all this?

Dennis Spicer was such a great ventriloquist.

Sadly died two weeks after this performance at just 29.

Today is International Workers’ Memorial Day #IWMD

With its New Deal for Working People, a Labour government will champion workplace rights and protect the right to safe working conditions.

Remember the dead, fight for the living.

Can confirm my postal vote has arrived and am delighted to have voted for Rory Palmer !
