Really lovely to meet so many in the community today. Looking forward to another big campaign weekend 💪 See you there!

We should come down like a ton of bricks on those who are violent against women – whatever their background. Yet today, you only ever hear women's safety mentioned by right-wing politicians when they are discussing immigration. It's weaponisation. independent.co.uk/news/uk/po…

We've all walked past them. The empty shop that's been boarded up for years. The old cinema gathering dust. The building everyone says, "someone should do something about that." Well, that's exactly what I'm doing. We're investing £210 million to help bring neglected high street buildings back into use - turning empty spaces into community hubs, health centres, shared workspaces, cafés and the local services that people actually want to see. The funding will also help communities save spaces like pubs and sports clubs and support co-operatives so local people can share directly in their area's success. People don't measure growth by looking at a spreadsheet. They measure it by looking at their local high street. That's how we restore pride and bring hope back. Not by telling people things are getting better, but by giving them the power to see and feel the difference where they live.

Amazing! Our mayor @SadiqKhan showing the difference Labour in London makes 🌹 standard.co.uk/news/london/s…

Labour is giving families breathing space – opening new school-based nurseries, offering parents 30 hours of government-funded childcare and bringing back the best of Sure Start with Best Start Family Hubs. Reform UK are closing nurseries. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cmdx…

The future is looking bright in the Camden sun this morning - with lots of support for @Sagal_AW! 🌹☀️ Sagal has shown she’s dedicated to this community, puts people first - and is going to be a fantastic MP here! 13 days to go! Join us: events.labour.org.uk/results…

Today @wesstreeting and I met some of the representatives of the nuclear veteran community. We talked about what the veterans and their families have been through and what matters most to them now. This is the start of a conversation, not the end, and we'll be working together on next steps.

Labour is ensuring that every young person is prepared for the world of work, by expanding vocational GCSEs and creating 200,000 more opportunities for work experience.

RT @LucyMPowell: I believe that every young person deserves a clear line of sight to the world of work, regardless of where they live or th…

We've all heard someone say 'school wasn't really for me’. And we should think about why that is. Our system is set up to reward young people who thrive in academic subjects and exams, but what about those who learn best by getting stuck in and doing things? Too often they're left behind. So we’re introducing new vocational GCSEs - proper, nationally recognised qualifications giving young people practical, hands-on learning that they can study alongside Maths, English and Science. And we’re creating 200,000 more work experience opportunities, so every teenager gets the chance to experience the world of work before they leave school. A one-size fits all approach simply doesn't work - I want to build an education system that values both academic and technical paths and gives all young people hope that their future will be brighter, whether it starts at university or not.

This is our Industrial Strategy delivering on its mission to reindustrialise Britain and bring growth across the country.

Today at the UN Security Council I had a simple message for the Russian representative: It's time to tell Putin the truth. The world knows that Russia is failing in this war. The Russian people can feel it and ministers know it too. The UK will stand with Ukraine for as long as it takes.

At UNGA @AndyBurnham, @EmmanuelMacron, @MarkJCarney and @FaisalbinFarhan brought together countries to discuss practical steps to improve humanitarian access in Gaza, support recovery and stand up for the two-state solution. The global community will not be silent in standing up for peace and an end to this conflict.

Reform UK has promised cuts of £100 billion, but provided no detail on where they'll be made. Now, Reform UK's favourite think tank has set out a blueprint – including getting rid of the state pension. Reform UK would take us in a dangerous direction. theguardian.com/politics/202…

This Labour Government is equipping our country against the threats to our national security.

Camden gave me a world of opportunities when I first came here as a refugee. I want to make sure every young person in Camden has those same chances in life. Thanks to @LucyMPowell for joining me to speak about The Camden Way.

This is why I'm in New York.

You heard that right. Reform UK in Sunderland have pulled support for Show Racism the Red Card, calling them ‘a politically-charged organisation with an agenda’. That agenda is driving racism out of football. Sunderland stands against racism, even if our Reform council doesn't.

This Labour Government is delivering the biggest sustained increase in defence spending since the Cold War.

The right to grieve is so important. The vast majority of employers already understand this; but these new measures offer a safety net for all workers. It's the latest development in our plan to make work pay - helping people to stay in work and ease the pressure on families.
