Today we launch #StandUpFor17 - calling for a 17% wage increase for the lowest paid in the West End. With fuel & travel costs increasing, and inflation at a 40-year high, it is vital that our members have the means to keep afloat. Will you #StandUpFor17?

@zarahsultana What! Crazy sums for public workers. If they want that type of increase, we the taxpayers need to demand public workers huge pension contributions reflect private sector contributions. Greedy.

@zarahsultana Hi Anne, this claim doesn't come from a place of greed! Before October pay was frozen so workers lost out on between £3k & £5k on average. Actors & stage management faced DIRE financial harship during the pandemic as theatres were closed & they coudn't earn money.

And what about the Equity Fringe Agreement? The minimum rate on that is nearly half the West End rate.

Yesterday’s increase in Interest rates is not going to do anything to fix the underlying structural imbalances in our economy. It is not going to help build one oil refinery or find a new discovery oil. The reason we have persistent inflation in Australia is because our government is running high immigration, high spending programs alongside chronic underinvestment in infrastructure and manufacturing after decades of privatisation. It is completely absurd that the Australian people are now going to be punished with higher interest rates alongside higher fuel costs. The higher fuel costs is in-itself going to dampen demand by increasing the cost of living so why pour fuel on the fire by increasing the cost of living even more. We are in this mess because of government spending not because Australians are spending too much just to survive. Manipulating interest rates is only dealing with the symptom not the cause. Notwithstanding we can’t solve inflation in the next 30 days, Australia needs to start building more infrastructure and factories and training our children the trades needed to do it. This will increase the supply of essential goods to bring inflation down. People First is the only party with the policies that will do this. We will create an infrastructure bank to fund the infrastructure free from foreign debt and we will bring back the military apprenticeship scheme to train our children how to build and maintain the infrastructure and manufacturing plants.

BREAKING: The Office of Budget Responsibility has today concluded that Labour’s planning reforms will increase growth and lead to housebuilding reaching a 40-year high. That is the biggest positive impact the OBR have ever reflected in their forecast for a policy with no cost to the taxpayer.

In 2000, the average family paid about $6,000 a year for health insurance. Today, it is nearly $27,000. That is not inflation. That is Obamacare. Republicans cannot just oppose it. We have to replace it with something that actually works.

Our focus remains on staying ahead of the potential risks to New Zealand and minimising the impacts on inflation and growth in our economy. That means ensuring we continue to secure the fuel we need to protect Kiwi jobs, livelihoods and the wider economy. The fuel update today shows that New Zealand continues to have sufficient fuel stocks in the country and there is more on the way. Fuel importers have not reported any issues with future orders or shipments. And therefore, we remain at Phase 1 of our National Fuel Response Plan.

Thursday, the 28th November is Thanksgiving day in the U S A. Families will come together and celebrate the harvest and all the blessings of the year. It's also the time of year when people donate to charity and we wonder if any of our friends will remember the work that Ernestos does for the animals in war torn Syria? We have just had one of our worst months for fundraising, with the lowest donations we have seen for a long time. A little gift from our supporters means everything to our animals and to the lives of the 100s of animals we treat and help every day of the year. We want to continue to be there for them. To help as we have helped for the past 9 years. But first, we must make it through the winter months. Will you help us? We need fuel, we need food,we need medicines. But most of all, we need your kindness and your belief in what we do.

A stronger Canada starts with the people building it - and that means making post-secondary education more affordable. By extending student grants and increasing access to loans for the 2026–27 academic year, more Canadians will have the support they need to stay in school, build their skills, and step into the workforce. Investing in students means investing in the people who will keep our communities growing.

The Big Bust of a Bill that John Cornyn voted for and Ken Paxton supports, is ripping healthcare away from over a million Texans and increasing costs for all of our families. Healthcare is a non-negotiable – we all have to go to the doctor at some point – and it shouldn’t break the bank when you need to use it.

Our armed forces are poorly paid. They are denied the equipment, the stores, the back-up and the training that they know are vital to the job they do. Worse, they see the anti-Western wing of the Labour Party calling for still more gigantic cuts in defence, which a former Labour Defence Secretary said would mean at best 'neutrality', at worst 'surrender'. We have a government that neglects our defences. A government that lets down NATO so badly that our allies have rebuked it publicly. A government which spends money on nationalisation while cutting spending on the defence of the realm. As I promised President Carter last month, the next Conservative government will give defence the high priority that it demands. The Conservative government will see that our troops are properly paid, increase defence spending so that we meet our obligations to our allies, and by strengthening the defence of the West, restore the morale of our fighting services. Let us not forget: our first duty to freedom is to defend our own.

Avi Lewis: "We have a very clear plan to cut grocery prices by 30-40% for Canadians at a cost to the federal government ... We'd subsidize it. It costs $350m to launch and $300m a year, which is one-half of 1% of the current defence budget."

UK inflation slowed to 2.8% in April, the lowest rate in more than a year, as a reduction in the household energy price cap helped soften the sharp rise in fuel costs since the start of the Iran war. Martin Lewis explains what this means.

#WATCH | Delhi: Addressing the question regarding the increased talent migration amid growing domestic demand in India, EAM Dr S Jaishankar says, "...We can't tell people not to go out to work. There's a freedom of movement. We're a democratic society. They have the freedom to travel. If they get better prospects, of course, they will look at it. The common-sense thing is to create opportunities at home. For this, we need to address both the demand and supply sides. The supply side means we have to keep increasing our output of skilled and talented people, and the demand side is that, unless we are able to sustain high growth rates, we will not be able to find opportunities for their employment and retention..."

Exciting news today, that the UK government have committed to development of a dedicated National Cancer Plan. This is a vital step towards delivering the #TurningPointForCancer we've been calling for, and we look forward to working alongside them to ensure that this is transformative for the 1 in 2 of us who will be affected by cancer in our lifetime.

Today I called on the Administration to allow for year round E-15. Increasing the amount of biofuels in our fuel supply is common sense. With gas prices skyrocketing and a war in the Middle East, we must be doing everything we can to bring down prices and decrease volatility.
