Britain deserves better than the Conservative cost of living crisis.

Labour has a plan to provide you and your family with security.

Vote Labour on Thursday 5 May.

[Birmingham Labour @BrumLabour]

Families in Birmingham are struggling with the cost of living crisis - yet this week the Conservatives are raising our taxes. Again. There is a better way.

Labour has a plan - Birmingham Labour is on your side.

[John O'Shea @politicalhackuk]

We've had our Love Your Streets team out on Yardley Road today, working with the community to improve the neighbourhood.

Our street cleansing teams out, along with a deep clean crew, our small street sweeper, waste enforcement and dozens of volunteers who came along to help.

It didn't look as though anyone was convinced. Car crash performance!

You can avoid paying the "discount" back by no longer requiring any energy provision after this year.

That could be by emigrating, going completely off grid, moving in with someone else or dying.

Weasel technicalities don't work - it feels like a loan to people.

[The Labour Party @UKLabour]

Under the Tories, energy bills are up, petrol costs are up, food costs are up.

Send a message to the Conservative government on 5 May and vote Labour for a party that is on your side.

Labour has a plan to grow our economy and support Britain through this crisis. Read more 👇

[Birmingham Labour @BrumLabour]

In 53 of Birmingham's 69 wards, candidates are standing as “Local” Conservatives.

Birmingham Conservatives seem to be ashamed of their own government. And they should be.

[Ninna Makrinov (she/her) @NinnaMakrinov]

Full list of candidates. It makes this feel even more official. Very excited to be one of them. There's so much I want to do for Birmingham.

It was taxes that brought down Al Capone.

[John O'Shea @politicalhackuk]

It isn’t heating or eating any more. People won’t be able to afford either.

Cold houses kill people.

[Ninna Makrinov (she/her) @NinnaMakrinov]

A reckoning approaches. And the public know it.
On the doorstep and on the phone, I'm talking to angry voters.

They literally had to walk past a line of relatives holding pictures of people lost to COVID.

The optics on this are almost as bad as the morals.

Phones and pens at the ready: With the cost of living soaring and energy prices set to go through the roof, please remember to submit meter readings to your gas and electricity suppliers on Thursday March 31 🗓️#NationalMeterReadingDay

[Ninna Makrinov (she/her) @NinnaMakrinov]

When the Tory government failed to act, Birmingham Labour stepped in to provide free school meals for children. We're continuing to support children and families through Bring it on Brum to provide food packages and support for families in need.

I've had many great conversations on doorsteps during this campaign. My most uplifting one so far: a man who was disillusioned of politics, previously a conservative voter, who finished our conversation saying "we need more good people like you".
I'm with @jessphillips:

[Ninna Makrinov (she/her) @NinnaMakrinov]

"The Covid pandemic and the ensuing disruption to NHS services have deepened the fall in satisfaction but unhappiness ... was evident well before then. The NHS has seen a decade-long funding squeeze and a failure to address the chronic lack of staff."

[Child Poverty Action Group @CPAGUK]

"Today the chancellor could have helped millions of families cope with spiralling costs – but instead he failed the children who needed him the most. The measures he announced don’t come close to bridging the gap between what the lowest-income families have and what they need...

This is why I'm standing to be elected as councillor for Acocks Green: a safer, cleaner and better Birmingham.
