Last of four Rother Valley canvass sessions today…team numbers down by this evening but Labour support getting stronger, as so many people have simply had it with the Tories Jake Richards
Great to visit Barrow with Keir Starmer yesterday to announce Labour’s ‘triple-lock’ on the nuclear deterrent. We will:
1️⃣ Build four new nuclear submarines at Barrow
2️⃣ Maintain Britain’s continuous at-sea deterrence
3️⃣Commit to all future upgrades needed
Support so strong in Blackpool today for our great Labour candidate Chris Webb …Chris would be the first born-and-bred Blackpool MP, and a strong voice for the town in Parliament
In Barrow with Keir Starmer, we are clear that our nation’s defence will always come first under Labour.
✅Our commitment to our nuclear deterrent is total
✅Defence will be hardwired into our mission to drive growth
✅Fully back building AUKUS submarines in Barrow
The UK’s nuclear deterrent is the bedrock of Keir Starmer’s plan to keep Britain safe.
Our nation’s defence must always come first.

The agonies of the Palestinians are extreme. Labour backs international efforts to get much-needed aid into Gaza.
We thank our sailors for their total professionalism and vital work in the region, and we wish the crew of RFA Cardigan Bay well in their mission.
Today I’ve written to David Cameron.
We can’t have a Foreign Secretary dodging scrutiny on arms sales to Israel. He must:
- Publish the foreign office legal advice.
- Take questions from MPs in the Bar of the House of Commons.
- Unequivocally commit to international law.
