Working people cannot afford another five months of the Tories, let alone five years! If you think it's time for change, look to @UKLabour ๐ŸŒน

The Conservatives have just voted against banning the sale of ninja swords. It will still be possible to buy them online with barely any checks. Deeply disappointing & shameful failure to take strong action needed on lethal weapons that have been used to kill on Britainโ€™s streets

The vote in Parliament tonight to ban the online sale of Ninja swords did not pass. There is no need for this to be a partisan issue. The Government should think again and do this in the battle against knife crime.

My constituents the Kanda family have campaigned with great courage for a tougher ban on the online sale of swords. โ€˜MPs must vote today to finally ban ninja swords like the one used to stab my son to death' - Mirror Online

In the news today, record numbers of emergency food parcels were provided by โฆ @TrussellTrust โฉ food banks across Wales in the past 12 months. Astonishing figures that reflect the painful reality of the Conservative cost of living crisis.

Labour would never accept seeing Royal Mail operated overseas. It is an important British institution with a unique place in our society and infrastructure. Labour will take the necessary steps to safeguard Royal Mail's undeniable identity and placeย inย publicย life.ย [2/2]

Rape has been effectively decriminalised. Survivors are being put through a horrific ordeal for years, with little hope of justice being served, and Rishi Sunak refuses to even acknowledge the problem. I was heckled when I raised this at #PMQs . Hereโ€™s whatโ€™s really happening ๐Ÿงต

While the Tories obsess over lanyards, in the real world people are living with the consequences of 14 years of Tory government. 90% of crimes are going unsolved, the prison system is in chaos, with court delays and the PM's early release scheme for prisoners #PMQs

Out this morning on @GMB calling for the Government to do more to tackle the use of deadly swords. @UKLabour wants to change the law to ban these lethal blades. Getting weapons off the streets will be a key part of our mission to halve violent crime over a decade.

The biggest barrier to seeking a dementia diagnosis is the idea that memory loss is a normal sign of ageing. It's not. If you're worried about yourself, or someone close to you, try @alzheimerssoc 's symptoms checklist and visit your GP๐Ÿ‘‡

Failure after failure. At Parc prison, 9 people have died in just two months. At Bedford, cells were flooded with raw sewage. At Wandsworth, following an escape the prison still isnโ€™t secure and the Governor has resigned. When will this Tory government take responsibility?
