Labour is a democratic socialist party - it's written on our membership cards. This Party does not belong to one man alone - it belongs to its members & trade unions. It should be for Labour members in Islington North to decide their candidate - that is their democratic right.

'It doesn't do anything meaningful to get people through the winter' Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham says the mini-budget announced on Friday was a "flagrant act of vandalism on the social cohesion of this country"

9 people at my dad’s funeral. No wake. I couldn’t even hug my crying sister. 30 people at my grandad’s funeral. Had to sit 6ft apart wearing masks. I had to watch my mother-in-law’s funeral via a video link. Because we were following the rules set by the people who did this.

Next time the government blames someone else for the shortages, think of Tomasz (location: central Manchester)
