Mortified to see these comments, some made by people standing to represent my area in Sunderland. A vote for any party other than Labour risks letting these people into power – racist, misogynistic and downright dangerous.

Out today in sunny Swindon. Thanks to local members for the lovely welcome. The council here is putting Swindon back on the map, working with two fantastic local MPs and the Labour government. Can't wait to see the difference the new Best Start Family Hub will make in Penhill.

Happy St George's Day from all of us at the Labour Party.

St George’s flag stands for unity over hatred and decency over division. Those are the values I will always fight for. Some try to hijack our flag to spread hate, I reject their plastic patriotism. mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…

Today, we fly our flag proudly and we're reminded of the values it represents - service, generosity, and respect. When we stand together, united in our communities, we are stronger than any attempt to divide us. Happy St George’s Day!

The war in the Middle East is not our war, but it will have an impact on our country. Every choice I make will be about keeping costs down for families and businesses and building a stronger, more resilient economy.

You can’t solve a fossil fuel crisis by doubling down on fossil fuels. The only route to energy security is clean homegrown power that we control.

Working people shouldn't bear the brunt of global gas price shocks while electricity generators make exceptional profits. So we're taking action to help break the link between high gas prices and high electricity prices, meaning stronger protection against future energy shocks.

Happy primary school offer day to families. The next few months are crucial for children's development. To help them get 'school ready', Labour is stepping in with practical help to make things easier for parents and give children the best start in life. mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…

Children growing up in our country deserve the best start in life. By lifting the two-child limit, Labour is lifting 450,000 children out of poverty, backing working families and investing in our country’s future.
