It means a lot to me to have the support of former Labour Leader Neil Kinnock. He represents our values and our traditions, and was one of our great leaders and orators.

The two child benefit cap is a ticking time bomb on child poverty. Each year another 40,000 children are pushed into poverty by it. We need to act urgently to transform lives and change these statistics. That’s what Labour governments do.

Farage says "I don't side with anybody…because science is never settled."
Hmm…does that include the laws of thermodynamics? The conservation of energy? Universal gravitation? DNA? Cell theory?
Perhaps he questions if the Earth orbits the sun or the theory of evolution?

Ending child poverty has always been at the heart of the Labour Party from introducing family allowance in 1945, Child Benefit in 1975 and Tax credits in 1999.
The Government has to be more Labour -scrap this punative policy. Lift 350,000 children out of poverty & 700,000 kids out of deep poverty.
Sir Keir Starmer will be told by senior cabinet ministers that lifting the two-child cap is the most effective way of alleviating child poverty amid mounting pressure from ministers and backbenchers

I moved 'up north' from London when I met my husband, 25 yrs ago. But I still love London, especially the fact that you don’t need a car to get about!
There’s always so much going on- even in my middle-age, I get excited to go back. I‘ve never felt its changed for worse. Don’t understand the hate!
I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again.

Ignore the haters, London is the 🐐

Oh dear! I seem to agree with Boris Johnson. At least he can see the danger Farage poses. Shame his bff Nadine and the other desperate, opportunist ex-Tories don’t.
Boris Johnson has launched a blistering attack on Nigel Farage - calling his approach to Russia "extremely dangerous".
