Heidi Alexander MP

Today I met Dave, who drove the first train out of Waterloo under the Government’s public ownership programme. We said we’d bring the train operating companies into public ownership. We’re delivering. Next stop: set up Great British Railways to better manage track and train!

My message to Britain's holidaymakers this summer is simple: we are not currently seeing disruption to jet fuel supplies. But if we do, we've got your back. thesun.co.uk/news/38998656/…

We must build a stronger country if we are to build a fairer country. That is the mission of my government and the promise of change that we will deliver. observer.co.uk/news/opinion-a…

Britain is a land that belongs to all of us. We must take a collective stand against antisemitism.

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.

Shelling out at the garage to repair pothole damage is no joke - I should know. That's why we're investing record funding to fix Britain's roads, and introducing tough new standards to make sure road users see the difference. thesun.co.uk/motors/3883046…

Nigel Farage is fighting his own shadow at this point…

We're investing record funding to fix Britain's roads. And now we're making sure every penny is spent wisely, making a difference you can see.🕳️🚫 itv.com/news/2026-04-1…

Poor performing water companies have nowhere to hide under my watch. This Government is introducing tougher enforcement and swift consequences for those who fail customers and the environment.

This morning, 500 more Best Start free breakfast clubs are opening their doors, making nutritious meals available to over 140,000 children & savings of £450 available to their parents. We’re stepping in to make families’ mornings that bit easier, because Labour is on your side.

Labour is taking the tough decisions to ensure security and stability for Britain.

We're cutting the cost of charge-point installation. It's never been cheaper and easier to own an electric vehicle. We're acting to support motorists as we see high and fluctuating prices at the pumps. thisismoney.co.uk/money/electric…

From Sunny Swindon to Red Hot Reading, great to join our brilliant teams on the local election campaign trail today. Both showing what @UKLabour councils working with a Labour government can achieve together. Working hard for every vote 🌹

@googlemaps And parking shouldn't be a faff, so we're encouraging councils to sign up to our one-stop-shop National Parking Platform to end the app headaches. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

We're making those every day journeys easier. I've announced tap-and-go travel across England's trains, trams and buses as part of a new joined-up transport strategy. gov.uk/government/new…

Parking your car shouldn't be a faff. We're making it easier. Just one of the changes we're making as part of our Integrated National Transport Strategy, launching later this week.👇 bbc.co.uk/news/articles/….

I will always make decisions that are in the national interest. It’s why we aren’t getting dragged into the Middle East conflict, and why we are fighting to protect your living standards. And while opposition parties have responded by dividing communities, we respond with hope and pride. Pride in our communities, and the hope of a country that’s better for our children. That’s what we’re fighting for. Vote Labour on Thursday 7 May.

I’m particularly pleased to be taking forward plans for Moor Farm roundabout - thanks to the tireless campaigning of @efoody and @KiMcGuinness. This project will ease congestion, unlock growth and make a real difference to everyday life. chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-eas…

Today we have announced a huge £27 billion investment in our roads - one of the biggest ever investments in England’s road network. From fixing potholes to building major new schemes, this funding will be transformational for the drivers and businesses that rely on our roads every day. gov.uk/government/new…

Every woman and girl deserves to feel safe walking in their own neighbourhood. New guidance for councils will help redesign our streets – with better lighting, safer crossings and smarter planning – so safety is built in, not an afterthought. theguardian.com/politics/2026/…
