Breaks his heart, IT REALLY DOES.

Zahawi, who claimed thousands from the public purse to heat his stables, attended men-only events where female staff were groped, was fined seven-figure sum for tax irregularities and breaches the ministerial code by failing to disclose it, suggests EQUIVALENCE.

📮 Thanks to everyone backing our campaign—Redditch Post Office is staying put under RF Retail from Sept 2025!
Same services, staff & hours (plus earlier Tuesday openings)
A move won’t happen before 2026 & would include full public consultation.

Since Labour took office, 7 criminal investigations into Severn Trent have been launched—part of 81 nationwide.
After 14 years of Tory failure and sewage dumping, we’re holding polluters to account. No more bonuses for failure. It’s time to clean up our rivers. 🌊

Labour is fundamentally re-engineering Britain.

It’s become almost impossible to do basic things like building homes or fitting a heat pump. Now a flurry of new laws are ending that era of national self-sabotage.

Thousands of kinship carers step up to give children safe, loving homes—but they can’t do it alone. I’m joining cross-party calls to protect the Adoption & Special Guardianship Support Fund. This is about children’s futures—not just cost.

While its EU deal grabbed the headlines this week, the government made undeniable breakthroughs on long-term projects that will completely reshape Britain.

New YouGov poll:

- 66% would support the UK having closer relationship with the EU

- This includes half of both Leave (52%) and Reform UK (54%) voters

- Majority (53%) support Britain rejoining the European Union

- Six in ten believe Brexit has been more of a failure than a success

Fly-tipping has blighted Redditch and the Villages for too long.
Now, Labour is taking action—giving councils powers to seize and crush fly-tipping vehicles, deploy drones & CCTV and jail waste criminals for up to 5 years.
It’s time to clean up our streets—for good.
