Three police officers went to an *elementary* school in Tennessee & arrested four Black girls. One girl fell to her knees. Another threw up. Police handcuffed the youngest, an 8 yo with pigtails. Their supposed crime? Watching some boys fight — and not stopping them. (THREAD)

Thanks to @JimfromOldham for taking the time to talk about raw sewage dumping in the Exe. A Labour government will force water companies to clean up their act. Our rivers are for wildlife and for people, not for systemic sewage dumping. Find out more:

Anyone in Exeter and Devon knows that the bus system is broken - expensive, irregular, and polluting. Buses matter to many people - let’s fix the system. Labour vows biggest bus overhaul in 40 years with new powers over operators | Transport policy:

The French implemented this short-haul ban ✈️ because they bothered to build a high-speed 🚄 network across their country decades ago. Meanwhile, the Greens in the U.K. also *oppose* HS2 🤯

A recession isn’t just a number - it’s lost opportunity, businesses that haven’t survived, less money in the pockets of families. Our economy has underperformed for over a decade now under the Tories. It’s time for a change to get the economy - and our country - back on track.

Rishi Sunak has failed to turn the corner on 14 years of Tory economic decline. Britain is hit by a recession and it’s working people who will pay the price. It's time for change. Only Labour will deliver it.

As parents and pupils up and down the country are made aware of structural integrity issues in schools, I've written to Devon Council asking for details of any issues with Exeter schools. Exeter parents and local communities deserve to know that our school buildings are safe.

Rough sleeping - under the last Labour government there was a concerted effort to identify the causes of homelessness and deliver the services needed to help those people. Then the Tory government took over. This is the difference that Labour in power can make.

Well done to everyone who responded to the rail ticket office closures consultation! 99% of the 750,000 responses were in opposition to the closures. So the Tory government has finally backed down - meaning Exeter’s ticket offices will remain open for now 🚂🎟️
