The best way out of poverty is to get a good, well paid job.

As North of Tyne Mayor, I’ve created 5,377 jobs. They’re all backed by our Good Work Pledge that ensures a real living wage, and decent terms and conditions.

Our free, flexible training courses mean that everyone…

Solidarity Ghassan Abu Sitta We were supposed to be speaking on a panel together this evening in Berlin, me via recorded message. Ghassan Abu Sitta was detained by German authorities & is being deported for wanting to reveal the atrocities he witnessed as a doctor in Gaza 1/2

Nye Bevan once said that the NHS would only survive for as long as people were willing to fight for it.

If we want to save the NHS, we must fight the calculated indifference of both Labour and the Tories.

Unbelievable!

Germany is willing to destroy its own democracy and freedom of speech for genocidal Israel.

“The issue is not that Starmer is interested in attracting Tory voters, it’s that he often appears uninterested in keeping Labour ones. Indeed, at times, the party seems actively keen to lose them.”

Modern political parties are cartels

Wes Streeting was a student politician, and it shows.

In student politics, his faction got off on doing and saying things to wind up the left.

That might have been a fun game to play in the National Union of Students.

It's no way to run a health service.

Nuke first, nuke hard, nuke often, that's what I always say.

Incredible policy from our next #NorthEastMayor #JanieDriscoll Mayor Jamie Driscoll. This will change people’s lives up here. You’re absolutely smashing it out of the proverbial park! #JD4IndyMayor #RealChange #PublicServices #Independent

Outrageous.

Labour has money for yet another increase in arms spending.

But none for hungry kids, underpaid nurses or struggling public services.

Keir Starmer: Labour commitment to nuclear weapons unshakeable bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…
Paying for US controlled nukes is a higher priority for Starmer Labour than reversing the two-child rule

When asked, 'Guns or Butter'? Starmer shouted 'guns' at the top of his voice

Ah sod it, just press it, put us all out of our misery.

A spike missile manufactured by Israeli state-owned arms company Rafael was used to kill World Central Kitchen personnel in Gaza.

Three of them were British citizens.

Rafael has a factory in the city of Newcastle, UK.

This morning I criticised the media for how flippantly they ask 'would you push the red button'.

I didn't realise they'd also captioned the section THE RED BUTTON.

Using nuclear weapons means killing millions of innocents and threatening to end humanity. It's not a macho test.

Even if she only had a six week snap election campaign Diane would have hundreds of activists ready to help. Starmer knows this seat is lost to Labour, but doesn’t seem to care 🤷🏻‍♀️

#NeverVoteLabourAgain

When there's enough money for wars and bombs but not for climate action or lifting kids out of poverty, there's something very wrong with your priorities Keir Starmer.

We all deserve better - and we refuse to stop fighting for it.

Luke Pollard is on Sky this morning. Heres Luke in 2019 saying that the 2child benefit cap must be scrapped to help kids in poverty in his constituency
