Education is another area where Gov't grants contracts despite serious concerns. Wakefield City Academy Trust was allowed in 2016 to run schools in Bradford, but worries were raised about them a year before. They collapsed last year leaving schools across Yorkshire in limbo #pmqs

In a landmark change to economic policy, @JohnMcdonnellMP announces that Labour will ensure the challenge of climate change is addressed from the very centre of government.

We will ensure fiscal risks it poses are included in economic future forecasts.

Trillions of pounds are being siphoned off by a super-rich elite who dodge tax by using the most shadowy places in the global economy.

My thoughts are with the victims of the devastating earthquake which hit Iraq and Iran yesterday. Thousands have been left without shelter and many without medical treatment. We must do all we can to provide urgent support.

This week, I visited my friend and Second World War veteran George Durack to ask what #RemembranceSunday means to him.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

On this #RemembranceSunday, I would like to extend my warmest thanks, appreciation and solidarity to all our veterans.

Ahead of #RemembranceSunday, I visited my friend and Second World War veteran George Durack.

Shareholders receive billions in dividends from public services that have been privatised.

The next Labour government will bring key services back into public ownership, so that this money is used to improve services and bring down charges.

A compassionate government's response to the reality of Universal Credit would be:

"We have listened, we have heard the hardship, and we will use the autumn Budget to pause its rollout."

Today we reflect on the human costs of war and the sacrifices made by our veterans in conflict and peacekeeping over many years. In their honour, and for our children’s future, let us do all we can to bring about a more peaceful world. #RemembranceDay2017

Today Uber was told it cannot treat its drivers as "self-employed" in order to deny workers' rights. Congratulations to the drivers and unions on this hard-fought victory. Labour will enhance rights at work and clamp down on bogus self-employment. https://t.co/xxiwHX7kPR

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Thank you @LauraPidcockMP for inviting me to talk with your constituents about how Universal Credit is affecting their lives. The Government must pause and fix Universal Credit before it is rolled out to any more areas.

Today marks the day women, in effect, work the rest of the year for free because of the gender pay gap. #EqualPayDay

Pls Read and RT my piece about how the next Labour government will end the scourge of unequal pay once and for all.

At Frame Factory, which I visited for #LivingWageWeek. We spoke about how it is simply wrong many workers are paid a wage they cannot live on. Labour will introduce a real living wage of £10 an hour.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

In #LivingWageWeek, I was delighted to visit the Frame Factory, a living wage employer. It is time for us all to recommit to ending the scandal of millions working in poverty.
