We had a great launch AGM to elect the committee and discuss plans for the future!

Looking forward to working closely with the local team to build a fairer, socialist Britain 🌹

@Rezu_c @Rehman_Chishti @KellyTolhurst @MaidstoneLabour we don’t have any connection to Maidstone Labour, so we can’t help with that.

But we can link you to the Medway MP’s voting records, no lies here, they both voted against free school meals! have a check on: https://t.co/8Zu3tZfbH9

[Medway Young Labour @MedwayYL]

Medway’s tory MP’s have no problem starving children reliant on free school meals.

Name and shame them.

[Medway Young Labour @MedwayYL]

@Rezu_c @Rehman_Chishti @KellyTolhurst @MaidstoneLabour We don’t have anything to do with Maidstone Labour, and that’s not relevant to what we tweeted, either. :)

[Medway Young Labour @MedwayYL]

Medway, your MPs have voted AGAINST the extension of free school meals over half term.

They are happy to let children starve.

This is disgraceful and disgusting behaviour. We are ashamed to have them as MPs.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Imagine being unable to answer the question "Do you want to feed hungry children or not?"

Toryism in 2020 in action.

[Young Labour @YoungLabourUK]

Young Labour stands in solidarity with the trans community.

We also send our solidarity to Rosie Duffield’s staff who have taken a principled stance against bigotry.

[Medway Young Labour @MedwayYL]

We desperately call on the leadership to uphold their ‘zero-tolerance on hate’ promise, and condemn Rosie’s vile comments with appropriate discipline.

Trans lives must not be treated like pawns in electoral chess. The Labour Party must always defend LGBTQ+ rights.

[Medway Young Labour @MedwayYL]

Solidarity with the second staffer who’s taken the decision to stand up and leave.

Transphobia has no place in our party, and it’s time that action is taken against those who perpetuate it. It’s time to #suspendrosieduffield

[Lewisham North Young Labour @LewishamNorthYL]

A Member of Parliament for the Labour Party, a Party created as the political arm of the working class, attacking their own former employee in public and possibly outing them in the process.

How much longer is this going to be allowed to go on?

[John McDonnell @johnmcdonnellMP]

The 'Spycops' bill undermines the rule of law and gives a green light to serious crimes https://t.co/OhY1uFGXfW

[Medway Young Labour @MedwayYL]

Medway Young Labour supports this call for the whip to be withdrawn from Rosie Duffield.

It is an embarrassment to us, a party that should champion LGBTQ+ rights, to have an MP who has consistently shown disregard for the the trans community.

We fully condemn her actions.

[LGBT+ Labour Scotland @LGBTLabScot]

LGBT+ Labour Scotland calls for Rosie Duffield MP to have the whip withdrawn. Despite attempts to reach out and educate, she continues to like transphobic content on Twitter and mock those raising concerns. This is unacceptable behaviour from a Labour MP. @Keir_Starmer

[David Lammy @DavidLammy]

Students have been done over by the government. #Marr

[The Labour Party @UKLabour]

Wishing you a happy and safe Rosh Hashanah. From all of us in the Labour Party.

[Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi MP @TanDhesi]

Students this year will be studying in unprecedented circumstances and will need extra support.

Given 80% reported to @nusuk that they’re worried about coping financially at university and part-time jobs will be in short supply, Government must do more for those facing hardship.

[Lewisham North Young Labour @LewishamNorthYL]

50% of your wages end up in the pocket of your Landlord.

Something must be done about Landlordism.

[Vince Maple #ProudToBeMedway @vincemaple]

Finally the Government recognise just how far off the mark they truly were.

Well done to all who rightly demanded change.

In a normal Government with any level of integrity we would probably have seen Williamson step down after such a shambles but he remains in place for now.

[Gemma Bolton @gembolton]

Please see the attached statement from members of Labour's South East Regional Executive in support of Trans rights and Trans inclusive language🏳️‍⚧️👇

[LGBT+ Labour Scotland @LGBTLabScot]

Statement on Rosie Duffield as agreed by the National Committee of LGBT+ Labour.

Solidarity, always, with our trans members, and the trans community.
