Only Labour can defeat Reform in this by-election. A vote for any other Party risks letting them in. Manchester is proud of its diversity. Together we must stand against Reform’s division and hate and elect a local Labour MP who will stand up for the values we share.

Speaking to Nick Robinson for Political Thinking on Today on why I’m standing to be a full time Deputy Leader - being clear about whose side we are on, being a bridge between the movement & leadership, lifting the 2-child limit, the atrocities in Gaza and telling a unifying story

I won’t take lectures from the Tories on standards in public life. - They breached the rules many times - Voted to change the rules to get one of their own off the hook - Had a mates “fast lane” for £m’s Covid contracts - Lied about breaking the rules on partying in COVID

Today could have been a significant day … it's the last day the general election could have been under Tories. How different things might have been & worse for the country by now if they’d gone on. Thankfully Rishi Sunak called quits and went early. My Business statement today

The stakes are really high in the Gorton and Denton by-election. Manchester gave birth to the trade union movement, home to the suffragettes, grew the coop movement. A city built on equality and community spirit. Only Labour can stop Reform’s Tommy Robinson backed candidate.

Great to launch Labour’s local election campaign in Wolverhampton today alongside Keir Starmer. These elections are about our Labour values in action. We have a strong Labour story to tell. Reform are cutting services, where in charge. The Greens hypnotic promises are an illusion.

The Conservatives don’t like to hear it, but we found a £22bn black hole in the country’s finances for this year, which the OBR didn’t know either. We’ve seen what happens when a government is reckless and ignores financial institutions: the economy crashed & the poorest paid the heaviest price. We won’t do that 👇

Today is the 30th sitting day in Parliament since the election. We’ve introduced 20 Bills in that time, far more than the Tories did in 2010. A far cry from the zombie parliament before the last election where the Tories ran out of ideas, couldn’t agree, and failed.
