Exactly what I voted for…
Since the Labour came to power last July, 81 criminal investigations into water companies have started, an increase of 145%.

It comes as inspections into sewage pollution have increased by 400%.

Investigation could see bosses get up to 5yrs in prison or companies fined 100s of millions of pounds.
Record 81 criminal investigations launched into water companies under Government crackdown
New crackdown is the largest criminal action against water companies in history.

Strong UK governance compete and contrast… Tories took funding from Russia… Farage admires Putin’s leadership style … Starmer sanctions against Russia… I know which I prefer.

You have been warned… voting reform will lead to an economic catastrophe for our country… don’t be like those 000s of Trump voters who say they didn’t vote for what he’s done…. They absolutely did and you will have no excuse because you can see this unveiling before your eyes.

Starmer actually made Trump act like a leader for the first time since he took power… who knew… all it took was another State Visit. I know people will moan but we have to understand, whatever we think , whatever the US does matter & in all honesty you could not imagine the Tories pulling this off!

So if Reform is a business and not a political party… that presumably means they’ll be paying taxes on those £25 membership contributions???? Sincerely hoping HMRC is keeping up with the tally…

James Timpson was always going to be a great appointment as a minister.

Today, the government release their plans to get thousands of offenders into stable jobs and away from a life of crime.

It will include bringing together prisons, probation and employers to create regional employment councils.

This is what was voted through any any Tory amendment would have stopped its progress. We need to protect our children now!
Every child deserves the best possible start in life. The Children’s Wellbeing & Schools Bill is Labour's commitment to breaking down barriers to opportunity and ensuring that child’s background doesn’t determine their future.

Today the Tories played shameful games with it. A dark day in politics

While the Tories score cheep political points, our Govt is getting on with protecting women & girls. Thank you Jess Phillips for being a champion for those who need the support of our justice system.
Just like much of the furore this week, here is an example of a law passed 4 years ago and the Tories did nothing with it. Within months of us being in power we delivered the scheme because we are about actual actions and real outcomes. They talked we walked. www.burytimes.co.uk/news/2484314...
