Great to have spent this afternoon on the doors for Richard Parker for West Mids Mayor 🌹 with Angela Rayner 🌹 and Simon Lightwood MP.
On May 2nd vote Labour for better buses. 🌹🚍
Great to see Louise Haigh and The Labour Party commit to greater control of the buses.
Around 153,000 people in the UK have Parkinson's, and everyone’s journey is different. Today is #WorldParkinsonsDay , & I am proud to unite with the #Parkinsons community. For info & support visit Parkinson's UK or parkinsons.org.uk.
Labour will make sure every community can take back control of local bus services.
Today, Louise Haigh sets out how 👇

En route to Birmingham to join Louise Haigh to launch our plan to give every community the power to take back control of bus services
The Labour Party will create & save vital routes & services, end today’s postcode lottery of services, & kickstart a revival of bus services across England
Finally. After 10 yrs campaigning on violence against shopworkers by @USDAWUnion The British Retail Consortium (here today with us in Stockton) Co-operative Party The Labour Party & more, Govt has u-turned & accepted Labour's plan to make assault on shopworkers a specific crime.
But still doesn’t go far enough /1
Rishi Sunak is letting tax dodgers avoid paying what they owe.
Rachel Reeves will take on the tax dodgers to fund more NHS hospital and dentist appointments, and free breakfast clubs for all primary school pupils.
That's the difference Labour will make.
Really enjoyable visit to Camphill Wakefield Specialist FE College recently.
Great to meet with the team and Clare Howard to see their beautiful site, discuss the fantastic progress they’ve made, as well as national challenges facing the specialist FE sector.
FT: Doncaster RLFC 6-42 Wakefield Trinity
A comfortable win for Wakefield as they pick up another two points!

We caught some spring sunshine on Pinders Heath & Woodlesford with fantastic local The Labour Party candidates Nat Walton & Tim Dowd.
Really positive conversations with residents, people are ready to see the back of this Tory government 🌹
