my great-grandparents arrived in the UK in the 1890s with nothing.
they sold pickles from the front room window, took in laundry, worked as tailors.
their children were nurses, teachers, salesmen.
their grandchildren were professors, designers, opticians, doctors, magistrates, entrepreneurs.

Last night, 340 Labour scored an own goal and voted to BLOCK making more Premier League and EFL matches free-to-air.
Conservatives? They didn’t even make it onto the pitch.
No VAR needed, can you spot your MP?

“Benefits”- 42% of day to day gov spending.
Of that, 44% is *state pensions*.
34% is universal credit, which largely tops up substandard wages.
24% is disability and sickness allowances.
8% is housing benefit.
5% is spend on child benefits.
Which do people want to cut?

A call to Labour to Rejoin the EU.
"It’s nine years since the UK voted to quit the European Union. It has proven to be a disaster, and a disaster made greater by the election of Donald Trump.
The world is at a pivotal moment. Stark political reality faces us."

Labour needs to stop being so afraid about rejoining the EU
Rejoining would revive our economy and boost our security

The government is putting the big banks and gambling companies ahead of disabled people and carers. It is not just cruel, it is a false economy.
Ministers must think again.

Proud to be a member of a party that cares for all of its constituents!
Delighted that the Liberal Democrats have once again committed themselves to trans rights and healthcare. Some powerful and moving speeches from members across the LGBT+ community.
Proud to call this democratic, progressive party my home.
