Ashley has been an outstanding minister and has been so in the face of extraordinary adversity.
She has achieved more as a minister than many politicians achieve in their entire careers.
I’m so sorry to lose her from our team, but proud of her decision and her impact.

I have taken the decision to step down from my ministerial responsibilities to allow me to focus on my job representing you, the people of West Lancashire, while I continue to receive oral chemotherapy treatment. My letter to the PM below 👇

The choice in Gorton and Denton is as simple as this:
Unity - with a Labour MP who will get things done.
Or division - with a Reform candidate who has proven time and time again that he isn’t fit to stand up for this community.

@UKLabour You were gifted a large majority. You could have won us all over with ease. But you blew it and now look where you are.

You can only make the accusation of genocide if you deprive the word of its meaning. We all know why you’re doing this - appealing to prejudice to win an election. You are better than that

Amnesty International, Medecins Sans Frontieres, Save the Children, the UN, International Association of Genocide Scholars, B’Tselem, Physicians for Human Rights-Israel, Palestinian Human Rights Organizations Council, Islamic Relief - all say, it's a genocide.

@bmay They certainly think that's the case. This is just embarrassing and exemplifies much of what is wrong in THE UK.

On balance, I think we might be serving them, not the other way around.

@MiamiMarlins_UK @wesstreeting Sad, but perfectly true and being systematically edged into the private sector.
He doesn't want to us to know how much public money is being channelled into private sector profits....PFI, outsourcing etc....money that could have funded more clinical personnel within the NHS.

Waiting lists are falling.
Ambulances are arriving faster.
Patient satisfaction with access to GPs is up.

@MiamiMarlins_UK @wesstreeting Based on my own first hand experience, every one of these claims is false. We are being gaslighted.
English
@wesstreeting This is totally contrary to my experience in each of these areas. We are being gaslighted, whilst you continue your privatisation programme. No wonder the NHS always needs more money...you are allowing huge amounts to feed private sector profits.

@PeterBleksley You have no idea of the full impact if we did. A bad, bad idea.

@UKLabour Then nationalise the utilities, cut out the profiteering, charge consumers at cost price.

This Labour government is determined to reduce the cost of living.

Would you vote for Liz Truss if she stood for Reform as a candidate?
Yes or No?

@KemiBadenoch And whose fault is it that their pay has fallen in real terms so badly?

The next Conservative government will ban doctors’ strikes, just like we do for the army and police.
