As England kicks off our World Cup journey, let’s fly the flag for England and fly the flag for everyone. Our flag belongs to all of us, not just some of us. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

I'm not afraid to make the positive case for immigration. When Trump is creating a hostile environment for science, we should welcome the brightest minds from around the world with open arms. I want tomorrow’s Nobel Prize winners building the future here in Britain.

Care workers come to this country to do vitally important work and many find themselves under threat of deportation. Visa's should never be used as coercion to enforce a system of exploitation, especially when care workers contribute so much to our country.

For thousands of people every year, a glioblastoma is a death sentence. Last night, people from across the Labour movement were out supporting the late great Margaret McDonagh's final campaign. And with enough support, it could be her greatest 👇 www.margaretsfinalcampaign.org/

We need to listen to Councillors and communities when they tell us we get things wrong as a Government. My time in Newcastle showed me what happens when we don't.

Whereas I had the security of a council flat, kids in poverty today are growing up in temporary accommodation. I’ve been in Gillingham with @naushabahkhanmp.bsky.social, speaking to families who’ve been failed by the housing crisis. Kids need homes, not hostels.

Public service and the spirit of community run deep for Britain’s farmers. Labour let them down. We must do right by them, and the many others who we haven’t delivered for. That starts by listening to them, which is what I am doing 👇

On my road trip visiting people and places that have been lost to Labour since the 2024 General Election, I met farmers in Hexham to hear how we can bring them back into the fold. We must look after these custodians of our land who provide our food and bring so much to our society.

Hearing first hand from long-standing Labour councillors and activists on our losses in the North East is really, really moving for me. It’s putting even more fire in my belly. Sunderland yesterday was another shot in the arm 👇

Your tax isn’t fair. So here’s what I would do about it. A wealth tax that works👇

This week I’m on the road to hear directly from people who have lost faith in Labour, why and what we need to do to earn back their trust. Today, I’m visiting a farm with Joe Morris MP in Hexham to hear from some of Britain’s farmers👇

Big tech's behaviour has been akin to big tobacco, introducing an addictive and harmful product whilst avoiding regulation. We’ve got to give our children their childhood back, and that starts with a social media ban for under-16s.

In times of greatest peril our country has been capable of doing big things. We still can. Britain used to punch above its weight in the world. We still can. Each generation used to provide a better future for the next. We still can.

The future of this country will not be built by setting neighbour against neighbour. It will be built by renewing the bonds between us.

The greatest tragedy of Britain today is that the next generation face worse prospects than the last. This is our generational challenge. To make sure that no one is left behind and no one is held back.

This is progress in every direction. Made possible by the extraordinary efforts of NHS staff, supported by the investment and modernisation we've made to turn the health service around. A great deal done and much more to do.

Labour is delivering: 🩻 The biggest expansion of diagnostic capacity for a generation ⏰ Shorter waits for tests and scans 🚗 NHS on the road to recovery. It’s a record the Tories can’t touch, the SNP can’t match, Plaid Cymru won’t sustain, and Reform would destroy.

Wes Streeting @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social · 14/04/2026

We’re investing more in the NHS and delivering differently. I'm investing £237 million in 36 new and improved Community Diagnostic Centres. This means shorter waits for tests and scans closer to home, more convenient services, and more footfall to our high streets.

Forget the 8am phone scramble. Contact your GP practice online. It's quick, it's simple and it's part of how we're modernising the NHS to work better for patients. Watch to find out more ⬇️ Nhs.uk/GPOnlineForms

For too many women, a broken bone is the moment they realise osteoporosis was already there undetected, untreated. New NHS scanners will help thousands of patients get tested sooner, start treatment earlier and prevent painful, life-changing breaks.

We're fixing the front door of the NHS. More GPs. Same-day urgent appointments. Backed by an extra £485 million for GP practices. Through investment and modernisation, we are rebuilding our NHS.

Farage has announced his Shadow Cabinet, with no Health Secretary. Presumably because if he becomes Prime Minister, there’ll be no NHS.

Today we've announced the largest above-inflation increase to the Minimum Income Guarantee in over a decade. Helping working-age disabled adults pay for everyday essentials. We've also confirmed £723m that could fund home adaptations for around 60,000 older and disabled people.

Picture of someone with a cup of tea and text saying - Cash boost for disabled adults to tackle the cost of living.

Successive governments have failed on social care. It’s not a shortage of good ideas that’s the problem, but a shortage of good politics. Today that changes with Louise Casey. Britain has a social care crisis. Here’s how we’ll work together to fix it 👇🏻 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Since the general election, we’ve hit the ground running on the NHS: ending doctors’ strikes, starting to cut waiting lists, investing in GPs, hospices… A lot done, a hell of a lot more to do. But as I look to 2025, I can see the road to recovery. www.thetimes.com/article/ac0c...

As health secretary I’ve ruffled some feathers this year, but I don’t intend to make excuses. By July, you’ll be able to see whether we kept our promises

Obesity robs our kids of the best possible start in life, sets them up for a lifetime of health problems, and costs the NHS billions. This Government is taking action now to end the targeting of junk food ads at kids, across both TV and online. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/gove...

Junk food ad ban ‘will prevent an estimated 20,000 cases of childhood obesity’

The Government confirmed the laying of secondary legislation for the ban on Tuesday.
