The Tory tax increase on working people through higher National Insurance Contributions comes into force today.
This will make the cost of living crisis even worse.
It’s the wrong tax, on the wrong people at the wrong time.
And yet another broken Tory manifesto promise.
'It's the wrong tax, at the wrong time.'
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer reacts to the national insurance increase today. He says 'the sad reality is a lot of the money gathered through this tax increase, in the end, is going to be filling a blackhole.'
@hitchinnubnews@NorthHertsDC 4/4 We know also that people are currently travelling to London or Cambridge to swim in open air so Letchworth may be more convenient for everyone in North Herts. But as Sue Foster said, we hope this is just the start for both pools. So let's get behind it and make it work.
@hitchinnubnews@NorthHertsDC 3/4 Given the numbers we expect initially to be interested, it is simpler to do at Letchworth since it is a dedicated open air facility, rather than one that shares facilities with an indoor pool fitness centre at Hitchin. We can monitor success. We want it to grow.
@hitchinnubnews@NorthHertsDC 2/4 For the record, we are looking at how we can create a facility for serious open air swimmers who are perhaps less concerned about pool temperature & other facilities than general pool users. We can really easily only do that at one location in the district.
@hitchinnubnews 1/4 Oh dear Layth - whynout a downer on what is a good news story as I told you the other day. @NorthHertsDC Labour and Liberal Democrat joint administration listened carefully to the petition and responded positively. As acknowledged by Sue Foster in your report.
@LeShuttle Dear Julien How do I postpone my booking from 21 July 2021 to a similar date in 2022.
I have been holding on the phone
line for an hour already.
Spent some time this afternoon on the phone speaking with residents of #Letchworth North. Important conversations on education and roads.👩🏫🛣️
Lots of support for the Labour Party ahead of May 6th!🌹

Great evening - yesterday - campaigning with my friend @MartinStears in #Letchworth. Talking to voters on safe streets and anti social behaviour. @NEHertsLabour
I've returned my postal ballot, have you?📮
These elections are vital in deciding the future of our local area.🌳
Every vote counts. And @NorthHertsLab is counting on yours. Vote Labour & Co-operative in #NorthHerts and help us win!🌹🗳
@NEHertsLabour@hertslabour
Great to show @bphillipsonMP our brilliant town full of energy & determination to recover as quickly as possible. Local independent businesses will be the absolute key to the success of lovely #hitchin & its team of @LabourCllrs will do all we can to help & support at all times
In Hitchin today listening to local businesses, with @judibilling, @Ian_Albert and @EofELabour.
Labour wants a bright future for our high streets, in Hitchin and across our country.
So one day further on. And still no explanation from @BimAfolami on how if you vote Conservative next week, your Council Tax is "to be lowered". You really can't trust the Tories. They say one thing and vote another. Vote #Labour on May 6th. #Hitchin#HitchinBearton
