I asked Ed Miliband what govt will do to stop landlords passing on the cost of meeting energy efficiency standards straight to their tenants via higher rents

His answer? 'I'm confident this will lead to lower costs.'

Really? Has he seen the state of the private rented sector?

At a time where workers at the RNLI's Inshore Lifeboat Centre need union recognition more than ever, their employer is denying them the fundamental right to be represented by an independent union, their basic rights to negotiation and bargaining.

Rural constituencies like North Herefordshire have specific needs when it comes to SEND provision - making it more than disappointing when plans for a new specialist school in the county were cancelled last year & replaced with grossly inadequate funding allocation.

This can’t go on. UK news shows have got to start calling Nigel Farage out on this ridiculous bull****. Please start doing your job - for all our sakes
If UK news shows are going to give Nigel Farage a platform to spout this absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it.

We cannot allow him & others to rewrite history.
