Children in Devon have been let down by central government for years. High needs education funding here is half that in parts of London. There needs to be a fairer model.

Keir Starmer should condemn Trump’s illegal action in Venezuela.
Maduro is a brutal and illegitimate dictator, but unlawful attacks like this make us all less safe.
Trump is giving a green light to the likes of Putin and Xi to attack other countries with impunity.

Trump is fleecing our NHS and trying to kill our BBC with pathetic billion dollar lawsuit, whilst Farage looks on, quietly taking over £400,000 from rivals GB news and plotting the privatisation of the NHS.
Starmer’s Trump Tax is a disaster for our NHS and for patients. Billions of pounds will be plundered from hospitals and GPs to pay big American pharma, all to please the White House.
What on earth is Labour playing at?
