I recently presented a new petition in Parliament demanding a Wealth Tax.

That's how we should fund much-needed investment in social care.

Thousands have backed this call - add your name here!

.@UKLabour sacking it's own workers because Keir Starmer and David Evans have driven the party to the edge of bankruptcy... isn't it good to have the sensible 'grown ups' back in charge?

And these people want to run the country's economy...? 🤦🏻‍♂️

[Sienna Rodgers @siennamarla]

NEW: In meeting with Labour staff, I’m told David Evans has said the party’s poor financial state is due to lost members and dealing with antisemitism cases. Reserves now down to one month’s payroll. Voluntary severance offered to all NEC-funded staff.

[Ben Kentish @BenKentish]

Matt Hancock tells the Commons: “The number of vaccinations happening in Bolton right now is phenomenal - tens of thousands every single day��. Which sounded a lot for a population of less than 300,000 people and, well, here’s the official data for Bolton....

Labour will never win with a strategy of simply 'not being the Tories' 🥀 Every Labour gov has been elected with a bold agenda

Attlee had the welfare state👩‍⚕️; Wilson the 'White Heat of Technology'⚡; Blair "Education, Education, Education" 👩‍🏫

What do @UKLabour have today?

[LJMU Labour Students @labour_ljmu]

We believe that @UKLabour is wrong to support the repealing of our local democracy in Liverpool, and in any other city across the UK

Our statement on @lpoolcouncil and the government takeover

#LiverpoolTogether

[LJMU Labour Students @labour_ljmu]

We stand in solidarity with #NHS staff in condemning the pitiful 1% pay rise proposed by the government in the #Budget2021. We stand with our comrades in @NurseSayNO that anything less than a 15% is not acceptable and an insult. #NHSPay15 #nhspayrise

[Andy Burnham @andyburnham]

£37,000,000,000 for private Test and Trace.

£3.50 for NHS nurses.

On the 10th anniversary of the Arab Spring uprisings we look at how poor living standards and austerity lead to one of the largest pro democracy uprisings In recent history. (1/3)

[Dan Carden @DanCardenMP]

The Tories talk about "tough choices". Let’s talk about how the world's 10 richest men boosted their wealth by over £400bn while millions were plunged into hardship.

We need a new economic model: one that doesn’t simply keep handing more wealth and power to the super-rich.

[Turn Left @LetsTurnLeft]

Rather than "fight to protect" the 48 hour work week, @UKLabour should be fighting to achieve a 40 hour work week at a minimum ⏰

[The Labour Party @UKLabour]

Labour is fighting to protect:

💷 Holiday pay
⏰ The 48 hour working week
🛌 The right to rest breaks at work

The Government's response to that is to consider longer working hours and less pay.
