The government admits profiteering is rife in children’s care and social care, yet it still wants private finance back in the NHS. This is an ideology where a few will profit while everyone else pays.

This is how your £100 Income Tax was spent...
£22 → NHS
£6 → Defence
£10 → Education
£10 → Debt interest
£11.40 → State pensions
£4.15 → Working-age welfare (PIP, Universal Credit, health support, etc.)
£0.50 → Asylum system

Yeah! Hate spending that £1.20!

I’d have thought nothing cuts more against our precious British values than selling out your country for Russian bribes…
And yet Reform, the right‑wing press, and all those self‑styled guardians of these values have nothing to say
…funny that.

That's how the corrupt Tories do business, while people died. That's the same Dido Harding who oversaw the hack of millions of customers records from TalkTalk and hadn't got a clue if they were encrypted or not🤦♂️ So why not give her 37bn to play with. It is truly sickening how corrupt they are.

There is no evidence that stripping refugees' rights one by one will have any impact on people crossing the channel.
Taking jewellery from refugees is akin to painting over murals for refugee children.
These repugnant ‘deterrents’ did not work for the Tories, and they won't work for us.

A strong immigration system doesn't need to be a cruel one.
It shouldn't need saying - but refugees & asylum seekers are real people, fleeing war and persecution.
This daughter of an immigrant is proud of our British and Labour values of respect and not turning our backs on people in real need.
