Shocking Tory failure on law & order in new figures out today

▪️37% increase in shoplifting to record high
▪️7% increase in knife crime - now up 81% in 8yrs
▪️13% increase in robbery
▪️90% of crimes go unsolved

Under the Tories, more criminals get off, more victims let down.

“We need to remember that most of the big problems we face are shared. Most of the solutions will have to be shared too.” Great piece by ⁦Ed Conway⁩ thetimes.co.uk/article/bond-b…

We don’t need to tell you that the Tories have broken Britain’s railways.

Labour’s plan will get our railways back on track; driving up standards and bringing down costs. metro.co.uk/2024/04/24/bri…

Great to be out campaigning in Blackpool for our brilliant The Labour Party candidate Chris Webb

It's clear that people are ready for change, and confident that a changed Labour party can deliver it. #VoteLabour 🌹

A healthy nation is critical to a healthy economy but the Tories have failed on both.

@UKabour’s plan will tackle the root causes of worklessness by driving down NHS waiting lists, making work pay, and supporting people into good jobs across the country.

After 14 yrs of Tory mismanagement of our NHS, doctors are leaving the service in droves.

Morale has plummeted, newly-qualified and experienced doctors are hanging up their stethoscopes. Yet the Tories scrapped two GP retention schemes last month

Awful news coming from Ammanford.

My thoughts are with parents, teachers and staff at the school and all of the students. Grateful to the emergency services who are responding.

That election result has been heralded as a ‘victory for Sikh representation in the UK parliament’. Preet Kaur Gill MP birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-…

Wonderful to join sikh community at the annual #Vaisakhi event in Speakers house. Thanks to Rt Hon Sir Lindsay Hoyle MP Pat McFadden & Eddie Hughes MP

Vaisakhi is a time to reflect on the values on which the Khalsa Panth was founded -defence of freedom, equality, and betterment of all.

Under the Tories, NHS dentistry has been left to rot. In some areas, 99% of practices aren't accepting new NHS patients, and it's people like Jamie who are paying the price. 1 in 10 people have attempted their own dental work.

NHS dentistry won't survive 5 more years of Tories.

The Tories are failing on every level when it comes to housing.

Nearly a million families are at risk of homelessness due to their failure to ban no-fault evictions, and their proposed ban on new leaseholds applies only to houses, despite most leaseholders living in flats. #PMQs

“Labour will rebuild safety on Britain’s streets, with 13,000 additional neighbourhood officers and PCSOs back on the beat — visible and present in our communities, building local relationships, deterring crime.” ⁦Yvette Cooper⁩ thetimes.co.uk/article/labour…

This morning Parliament’s own spending watchdog, the National Audit Office, publishes a damning indictment of the government’s botched and flawed chidcare rollout.

As Labour has said all along, this was a pledge without a plan.

Thank you so much for visiting our Khalsa Aid exhibition at UK Parliament today. Your support means a lot to all of us , keep on rising 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Waited 18 months for my first endo surgery in 2019/20 ('lucky' by today's standards). Estimated TWO YEARS just to speak to gynae when endo left me so depressed and fatigued I was on long-term sick. Family subbed me to go private because I was so unwell

On behalf of the Labour Party, I wish everyone a happy St George’s Day.

Let us be proud of our national identity, confident on the world stage, and sure of our country’s future.

Great to catch up with friends & celebrate a belated Vaisakhi in Westminster tonight.

Thank you to hosts Pat McFadden Eddie Hughes MP & Rt Hon Sir Lindsay Hoyle MP

Today, shocking figures have pointed to the systematic deprioritisation of women's health.

600,000 women in England waiting for gynaecological treatment,

33,000 of those waiting more than a year, and under 2/3rds of eligible women screened for breast cancer in the last 3 years

Lovely to catch up with ravinder singh in Parliament, to mark 25 years of selfless service by Khalsa Aid around the world delivering on International development priorities. #AidMatters
