Today, after 14 years, I’m resigning from the Labour Party.
Jeremy Corbyn and I will co-lead the founding of a new party, with other Independent MPs, campaigners and activists across the country.
Join us. The time is now.

Suspended fucking sentences? Is this some kind of fucking sick joke? Crimes against women are not taken seriously enough. This is fecking outrageous 😡😡😡😡
There are tonnes of properties sitting empty in Birmingham because they are 55+ only. Ridiculous, this age limit needs to change because this is quite frankly disgusting. #BirminghamUK#Birmingham#birminghamcitycouncil
What kind of country are we? We accept elderly losing their heat allowance, those who are genuinely sick, having their benefit cut, turning people against each other so people accept these cuts. This government sickens me & I’m hating what the UK has become. #DisabilityBenefits
Labour are going ahead with their vicious welfare cuts that could affect some of the UK’s most severely disabled people.
Not even the Conservatives sank this low.
Two-party politics is dead. Only the Green Party would tax the super-rich properly and protect the most vulnerable.
Hahaha Liz Kendall just said people with severe mental health conditions like schizophrenia can work and want too... not being funny but severe mental health problem need to be monitored properly, look what happened in Nottingham when things were left? #DisabilityBenefits
I’ve spent 22 years voting for @UKLabour - never ever again will I vote for these scum bags. They are targeting the weak, the old, the frail - Bullies and absolutely appalling, but don’t worry we will still give £15 billion is foreign aid this year #DisabilityBenefits
It’s ok, tonight Liz Kendall will go back to her £5.9m house tonight, have a good meal and sleep soundly. Meanwhile those of us who are sick, disabled & carers will just live in fear of what’s next #DisabilityBenefits
no one on PIP is abusing the system. PIP is already near impossible to receive; i got rejected + i suffer from a condition that causes paralysis. none of these conditions listed are able to be faked. disabled people are not the fucking problem. leave us alone. #DisabilityBenefits
The government has announced the most devastating cuts to disability benefits on record.
These plans should shame the government to its core.
Here's our initial response to the new Welfare Green Paper 🧵👇
Liz Kendalls Expenses PER YEAR even after she earns a wage of £91k per year (minimum) #DisabilityBenefits
