🛑 For over a decade the Tories ran down our high streets.
Fake shops. Tax dodgers. Sham businesses hollowing out our communities.
Labour’s cleaning it up and giving councils the power to fight back. Now we need HMRC and the Insolvency Service to step up too.

(1/2) Standing up for leaseholders in Kensington and Bayswater - and across the country - is a top priority for me. I told Parliament recently: “the current system can represent a cartel.”

Wonderful to join my good friend Mr Mouaad Ibriz, the Moroccan Consul, along with Wafaa and the team at Al-Hasaniya Moroccan Women’s Centre in North Kensington.
The Moroccan community play a pivotal role in the UK, especially in Kensington and Bayswater

Did you know up to $350bn of Russian money is deposited in Western countries? 💰
It’s time to move from freezing Russian sovereign banking assets in the West to using that money to back Ukraine now. 🇺🇦

(1/2) 🏛️ For too long, the Conservatives turned a blind eye to law-breaking on our high streets, including tax dodging, illegal working, shoplifting and dodgy products.

🏠 We’ve backed 11 million private renters with stronger rights.
🔧 We’re making sure 5 million social tenants get repairs done faster.
📜 And we’re delivering for 5 million leaseholders too.
These numbers speak for themselves, that’s what a Labour government can deliver. 🌹

I recently visited St James & St John’s CE Primary, where I was well and truly put in the hot seat by an incredibly thoughtful group of pupils.

Great to join Andrea and the Royal British Legion at Earl’s Court Station this morning supporting this year’s Poppy Appeal. Every poppy helps honour and support our veterans and their families. 🇬🇧

(1/2)📣 Huge news for women’s health!
Under Labour’s new Women’s Health Strategy, we’re breaking down barriers — improving menopause care, expanding women’s health hubs, and now making the morning after pill free from pharmacies.

Roman Abramovich was given permission to sell Chelsea FC under the condition the proceeds would be used for humanitarian need in Ukraine.
It’s a disgrace that more than 3 years later over £2.5 billion has not been used to help Ukraine.
The Government is right to threaten legal action.

Meeting yesterday with Brianna Ghey's mother Esther - and pupils at Brianna's former school - was a powerful reminder of why controls on social media and smartphone use in schools is so important for children, teachers and parents. (1/2)

👶 Big news for families in Kensington & Bayswater.
Too many parents have been left to face the challenges of raising a family alone after years of cuts to local services. That’s why I’ve fought hard and secured funding to invest into local family services.
