For the families having to visit food banks.
For the NHS staff working endless shifts, feeling undervalued.
For the pensioners worried about putting the heating on.
For the families worried about their mortgages rising.
Vote for change.

This is not true and Mr Brereton knows it too. That work has nothing to do with the Leek to Stoke line. I have had confirmation that part of the line is being used for training purposes. The decision to reinstate the line is still sitting with the DoT.

It’s grim to see a Tory MP directing vile remarks at Sadiq Khan. As well as towards the wider Muslim community.

There are over 150,000 carer vacancies. This will do nothing to help a struggling sector we rely on with an ageing population.
It’s also lacking in compassion - we rely on these people to look after our families but deprive them of a family life of their own?
From today, care workers entering the UK on Health and Care Worker visas can no longer bring dependants.
This is part of our plan to deliver the biggest ever cut in migration.
