My union @unison.org.uk has long been campaigning for a National Care Service, and @andyburnham.bsky.social is finally taking this forward. Building on the first ever Fair Pay Agreement in social care, it is time to give greater dignity to care workers and address the broken system.

New Prime Minister not ducking the big challenges and reaching out across the aisle to try to solve it. Refreshing.

Now we know why Farage was so desperate for a by-election dead cat. 🚮

Why does Farage want to be an MP anyway? He never turns up to vote or speak in debates. He never holds surgeries or undertakes the constituency work most of us do. He does not want the scrutiny or to follow the rules. It’s all about ego not public service.

🧵1/ I've spent more than a decade working on anti-bribery and corruption. I know a red flag when I see one. That's why I’ve reported Nigel Farage to Parliament’s Standards Commissioner. (H/T @rowenamason.bsky.social and @tomburgis.bsky.social).

The fact Farage couldn’t bring himself to condemn a death threat shared by a Reform councillor against another MP is beyond appalling. #PMQs

I’ve been working with Severn Trent on a flooding issue in Branston. The concrete in the overfill system, which was causing the floods, has now been removed ✅ I know how much the flooding has impacted residents for many years, so I’m delighted it has now been resolved.
