We’ve hit a big landmark – 10 million free breakfasts served. 10 million better days at school – more children turning up, concentrating, getting on. 10 million easier mornings for parents – better drop-offs and commutes. Change doesn’t happen by chance, it comes with Labour. 🌹

You want wealth taxes? In less than 2 years, Labour have delivered all these wealth taxes (and probably some more as well) taking more money from the wealthiest in society and the biggest businesses! Promises made, promises deliver. Raising billions, maybe 10s of billions of pounds each year. 1/5

It is vitally important you share this far and wide - on here and elsewhere. Reform have an army of supporters sharing hate everywhere on social media. If not you, then who will be the army of supporters for Labour sharing hope and good news everywhere? The media will bury all good news.
