That's enough to wrap around the world 15 times.
We need a bespoke 🇬🇧UK-EU🇪🇺 Customs Union to tear down these trade barriers.

There will be no car parking charges at Cantley this year. But as @imogensd.bsky.social has outlined, sadly we can’t guarantee no council will ever need to charge for car parking

BBC South Today televised my meeting with the Minister responsible for the New Hospital Building Programme, where I was joined by staff and patients from the Royal Berks.
It is crucial for the Government to hear the concerns of those most affected by the hospital rebuild delays.

We need to bolster our national defence, including reversing the Conservatives' 10,000 troops cut as soon as possible.
