Two 👂 One 👄 Took to the streets of Workington to talk to people about immigration. Here's what happened.

This is really impressive, the conversations reflect the breadth of views we hear in focus groups and these are exactly the type of conversations MPs should be having to regain trust and confidence on issues like immigration.

Today marked a historic moment for Motherwell, as Draffen, Allan and Coursington Towers were safely brought down in a blowdown demolition, closing a 50-year chapter and opening the door to the town’s next one. Thank you to all our local residents and businesses for their patience and cooperation throughout this complex operation.

A fitting tribute for a true football legend is taking shape. Work has begun on a permanent statue honouring Tommy Gemmell, the Craigneuk-born @CelticFC and @ScotlandNT hero who scored in two European Cup finals. Led by the Tommy Gemmell Project Committee with support from our community partnership team, this tribute ensures Lisbon Lion Tommy’s achievements and connection to his community will be remembered for generations.
