The climate crisis is now a public health emergency, according to WHO-backed experts.
The science is clear.
The consequences are impossible to ignore.
Action cannot wait any longer.
Under this Labour government we have seen the biggest fall in NHS waiting times in 14 years.
Labour in government have made the NHS a priority. More Doctors and Nurses, better response times, prescriptions frozen.
Labour is working.

Labour promised to invest in mental health support. We promised to deliver 8,500 additional mental health staff in the NHS.
Labour has exceeded that target. Promise made. Promise delivered.
Labour is working.
Andy Burnham distances himself from calls to rejoin the EU, telling an audience in Leeds: "Brexit has been damaging, but the last thing we need right now is to re-run those arguments”
@coyleneil So, what you’re saying is… despite the fact you and your colleagues spend your entire lives on social media crowing over the most minor apparent win, you’re not communicating effectively enough?
Right.
Our Labour Government is helping people in Southwark & across the country but we don't always communicate effectively.
Foodbank use has dropped under this Labour Government, reversing one of the worst Tory/ LibDem legacies; they allowed poverty to soar. We are fixing their mess
@BBCPolitics@BBCNews Does anyone actually believe this?
Once elected as an MP he’ll pivot in order to appeal to the Liebour membership in the hope it gets him into No. 10.
A snake. Just like Starmer.

"I am not proposing that the UK considers rejoining the EU, I respect the decision that was made at the referendum," Andy Burnham says

@DaleVince But all your favourite government are doing is allowing the costs of putting it all right to be passed on to customers.
Ironically one of the first acts of the new Labour government was to allow companies to increase bills even more than they were going to do under the Tories.
Labour should act on this, properly enforce licence conditions, squeeze these foreign owned entities until the pips squeak - they're polluting our country and enriching themselves - in the worst example of what privatisation has to offer.
We don’t have to accept this status quo.

@SamCoatesSky Does he get to carry on as mayor if he loses? Or must he resign from that first?
It would be just like Burnham to slime back into the mayoralty if he loses, leaving Simons to take the fall.

Rachel Reeves will this week scrap plans this week to increase fuel duty by 5p a litre from September amid mounting concerns about the impact of the Iran war on the cost of living, as first reported by @kateferguson4
The chancellor will announce plans to retain the cut on Thursday as part of series of measures to help families and businesses
Prices at the pumps increased at their fastest rate since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022 in the wake of the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical waterway in the Middle East for the passage of oil and gas
In her budget in November, Reeves announced that the government would scrap the 5p cut in fuel duty, phasing it out between September and March
Two senior government sources confirmed that Reeves was set to shelve the planned rise. The reversal is expected to cost £2.4 billion
