@nhsconfed@kevin_j_foster@LeeHow14 We are committed to supporting the NHS. The hospital is our largest single site employer and the NHS is our proudest legacy so deserves to be properly funded, not sold off! We champion any campaign to improve social care, especially those run by the NHS staff on the frontline
Engaging with the dozens of dog walkers on Goodrington beach this afternoon are Catherine Fritz (Torbay Council candidate) and Michele Middleditch (Torbay Parliamentary candidate).
TODAY Thursday 14th is polling day in Goodrington.
Let's get Catherine inside Torbay Council!
#TorbayCouncil needs radical change. We have the opportunity to do that by electing Catherine Fritz as a councillor!
Labour Torbay want to challenge the moral corruption in #TorbayCouncil and Catherine has the experience, local knowledge and passion to do just that!
#Vote Fritz
Workers in Torbay are the poorest in the South West and in the top 10 poorest of the UK!
A Labour Government will:
- Introduce a £10 per hour wage minimum
- End exploitative zero hour contracts
- Protect worker's rights
- Create new green jobs

There are currently 1000 people who are homeless across Devon.
This is unacceptable.
#VoteLabour and we will:
- Address the causes of homelessness
- Improve tenants rights
- Scrap Universal Credit and Sanctions

The Department of Health makes LOANS to Torbay Hospital (£67.8million)
As well as having to pay back the loans, the hospital has to pay interest of as much as 3.5%
Our local hospitals should be fully funded and protected, not plunged further into debt!
#VoteLabour
Torbay Hospital's workforce is in danger!
According to their latest annual report:
"Our plans ... set out an ambition to reduce the existing core workforce by 170 during 2019/20."
Government cuts are dismantling our NHS.
#VoteLabour and protect the employment of local people!
Young people have been ignored in politics for far too long!
Labour will:
- Rebuild Youth Services
- Introduce a minimum £10 an hour wage for everyone over 16
- Introduce local jobs as part of the Green New Deal
- Scrap tuition fees
So #VoteLabour to provide a better future!
Torbay Hospital is our largest single site employer but Tory budget cuts are tearing it apart!
To try to keep waiting lists lower than 52 weeks, local staff are being bypassed for agency staff in a number of areas; especially in Adult Social Care.
#VoteTorbayLabour to the NHS!
This is one of the most important elections of our generation!
Don't forget to register to vote so you can #VoteLabour
Torbay needs a Labour MP so make sure you have your say!
