The Labour Party

Labour is the party of working people.

Kemi Badenoch is proving she's only on the side of the very wealthiest.

£17 billion of tax cuts for the richest.

The Tories have learnt nothing.

The 2012 Olympics not only was not only a triumph at the time, but has transformed Stratford and surrounding areas. I've lived and worked just a few minutes from the Olympic Park and saw how big, and positive, an impact it has had in East London.

Very excited that @JohnHealey_MP's Budget is backing plans to bring the Olympics to Northern England in the 2040s!

The package includes a world-first AI Biosecurity Lab, a new National Cyber Shield and investment in British-made chip design capability.

1/7 I have two simple tests for British AI, driven by our values. Is it safe? And is it ours to shape? 🇬🇧

Today, Chancellor @JohnHealey_MP is announcing a major, ambitious package of investment to strengthen Britain's defences against emerging threats, back British innovation, and build our technological independence.

🚨NEW: Chancellor John Healey has announced a major new package for AI investment ahead of the Budget next week.

[John Healey @JohnHealey_MP]

Today we're setting out a British approach to AI: backing innovation and growth, managing risks responsibly, and making sure the benefits of AI-enabled growth are felt right across the country.

[Kanishka Narayan MP @KanishkaNarayan]

Britain’s strength is our pragmatism: we know the choice is not more or less technology, the choice is whether Britain gets to shape it.

We are determined to shape AI with British values, in the British national interest 🇬🇧

[Kanishka Narayan MP @KanishkaNarayan]

To keep us safe on AI, we will test AI, we will harden our defences, we will convene the world, we will build in Britain and, yes, wherever needed, we will regulate.

[Kanishka Narayan MP @KanishkaNarayan]

We are focused on the British public’s concerns about AI. Is it safe? Is it shaped by us? Do we all get to benefit?

Great to speak to @BBCBreakfast about significant investments for safe AI that spreads opportunity.

This Labour Government is putting problem solving before point scoring. There is no issue more in need of that than national security.

[The Labour Party @UKLabour]

Labour is ensuring that Britain is prepared for the future.

Homegrown energy is the only way that Britain can build resilience from international shocks.

Andy Burnham is grasping the nettle, making the difficult decisions that the Tories avoided for 14 years.

[The Labour Party @UKLabour]

Labour has a plan to bring down energy bills for good.

[John Healey @JohnHealey_MP]

British firms are fed up with pointless paperwork and form-filling.

Today we are cutting unnecessary bureaucracy, reducing costs and giving businesses the breathing space they need to invest, innovate and create good jobs.

Some chatter on social media would have you believe that crime is out of control.

The facts tell a different story.

As @frasernelson has shown in his Substack today:

Violence is at its lowest level since the crime survey began in 1981.

Robbery is at a record low.

Crime, excluding fraud, is 78% down on its peak in 1995.

And the stats show this Government is delivering on its promises too:

Knife crime is down 11%.

Knife murders are at their lowest level in 35 years.

Thefts including phone snatching have fallen by 20% in the last year alone.

But I know there is more that we must do, and we will:

We’ve put more than 3,800 extra neighbourhood officers into roles, with named, contactable officers for every neighbourhood.

We’re introducing the most significant reforms to policing in a generation.

We are tackling rising rates of violence against women and girls through our landmark strategy.

And we are tackling crimes like fraud, more prevalent in our increasingly online world, with £250 million directed to this challenge in our Fraud Strategy published this year.

[The Labour Party @UKLabour]

Britain has been exposed to volatile international energy markets for far too long.

That is why Labour is establishing a new Energy Wealth Fund which will reinvest tax revenues from North Sea oil and gas into renewable and low carbon projects to support the clean energy transition and bring bills down for good.
