I am deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Alistair Darling. My heart goes out to his family, particularly Maggie, Calum and Anna, whom he loved so dearly.

Fascinating session on Artificial Intelligence with @Labourlongterm. According to @MattRodda the “blistering pace of AI innovation is moving much faster than the government is”

My Labour government will make Britain a clean energy superpower. To lower bills, create good jobs, and ensure energy security. Labour is ambitious for our country. The Tories can’t hide 13 years of failure with sticking plasters and warm words. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

13 years of Tory failure means Britain is hit harder by high inflation than our international peers. Only Labour has a plan to ease the cost of living crisis for working people now - but also to build a stronger, more secure economy for the future.

Labour’s foreign policy will reconnect Britain. Improving our trade and security relationship with the EU. Building on new partnerships in the indo-pacific. Working with the US and other allies to de-risk our economy and create jobs at home. ft.com/content/923db4cf-0c9c…

Under the Tories, 23,000 patients died in A&E last year. Labour will cut A&E waiting times by providing more community care to prevent ill-health, and train 7,500 more doctors and 10,000 more nurses a year, paid for by abolishing non-dom tax status. thesun.co.uk/health/22420483…

This is the terrifying reality after 13 years of the Tories. When you phone for an ambulance, it should get there quickly. Labour will launch the biggest expansion of the NHS workforce in history, training the staff needed to reach patients on time.

The best way to vote is by post, but you only have *five days left* to apply for a postal vote - the deadline is Tuesday 18 April. Postal votes are: 1) quick 2) you get to vote early 3) don't require photo ID

If local & national government really cared about the climate crisis & our kids’ and grandkids’ futures, they would not encourage expansion of aviation. @GoodLawProject @ClientEarth @CBTransport @TransportCttee @MayorofLondon @CEN_HQ @NextGenTories @Labourlongterm @LondonNewLibs
Important consultation for East, SE & NE London City Airport is proposing to end the ban on weekend flights😡- this shatters the chances of people living near & under flight paths of getting any respite, quite apart from the climate impact! @HACANEast meetings & info 👇

"Climate change remains, by far, the biggest issue for Labour members. It was cited as both the biggest threat facing the UK... and as the top foreign policy priority Labour should have." @JessicaToale and @Peymasad on @LabourFPG's annual survey: labourlist.org/2022/12/tackl…

Contact us if you'd like to submit a post! Some ideas: Should Lab call for a special IPCC report on extreme warming? What are Lab perspectives on AI regulation? How can NHS be better prepared for next pandemic? What UK lessons can be taken from the Welsh future gens commisioner?
Labour for the Long Term is launching a blog! Our blog is open to submissions relevant to extreme risks, promoting long term thinking in policymaking, and improving the long term future. Visit our website to view the latest posts and join the debate! labourlongterm.org/blog

A Labour Government would have a community-led plan for responding to emergencies and not a market-led approach. Pleased to talk at the @Labourlongterm packed event about extreme risks today - more pandemics, cyber and climate than asteroids. – at Liverpool, England
It was brilliant hosting our first event at #LabourConference2022. Thank you so much to our wonderful panellists @PutneyFleur @stephenkb @LukaKemp @JaneBryngwyn and @dannruthless for sharing your insights on how we can do more to tackle extreme risks!
