One of the many things @andyburnham must tackle is the railway network. I travel regularly and every journey is plagued by late trains, no air con, crap Wi-Fi, broken toilets. It is disgraceful. For god sake public ownership of the railway network please
@LumoTravel sat on
A train which has broken air con and is packed. @AvantiWestCoast late this morning. When will we stop putting private business above basic public services??

No to cuts, yes to investment!

Vote for them by 10pm today.

Your Party was founded to do politics differently: power to communities, not Westminster.
So we're proud to be supporting community independent groups across England in May's local elections.
Just sorted my vote for the ace Chris Neville and Sarah Mountaine, in the @unite exec election. If you haven’t sorted yours yet I can’t recommend Chris and Sarah highly enough

This is the beginning of a community fightback against austerity, privatisation and fear.

My #Garston ward colleague @ThisIsYourParty Councillor Lucy Williams given an impassioned speech against Corridor Care in the City and beyond. @lpoolcouncil #PatientsWithoutPrivacy
Watch her full speech here: aisapps.mediasite.com/Audite……
Watching about @Travel_Lodge lack of safe guarding against sexual assaults. Hotels have work to do on this. To start:
1) don’t say room numbers when checking in/going for breakfast
2) stop using umbrellas to advertise where you are staying @HolidayInn I’ve raised before!

The CEC is not a representative body.
In Your Party, members don't act through representatives - we have a direct vote (OMOV).
This difference is fundamental, and it's why this isn't “Labour 2.0”.
Miss that - and everything else gets misunderstood.

Amazing @UKTogetherAll.Next step is so important. Building support across the UK in communities and workplaces to reject hate. People came from all over the Uk yesterday-all now can play a role in fighting racism and demanding a new economic model that leaves no one behind #hope
Never forget that the reason people want to blow up the world is to make money- for themselves and those that they owe through their corruption. There is no good that comes from war and there never has been. @UKLabour should hang its head in shame for what it’s become
Scum on earth

This is a reckless act of escalation that endangers us all. No discussion. No debate. What a disgrace.
How on earth can the Prime Minister still pretend we are not involved?
It doesn't matter how he dresses it up. Britain is participating in an illegal war of aggression.

Red Nose Day money is now going on the basics government should be providing-charities are stuffing the holes of failed austerity. Charities also facing funding crisis. public robbed day after day by a system stuffing the bank accounts of the super rich-when will it end??
The money isn’t there? Rubbish.
Trumps monstrous war with Iran sends oil & gas prices soaring. UK bills rise. Inflation climbs. Who wins? Energy giants and traders. Who pays? The public. Innocent people with their lives. Every single time!
This isn’t economics — it’s profiteering

The Gaza Tribunal confirms it: Britain's governments made us complicit in one of the great crimes of our time.
Those responsible belong behind bars.
And from the streets to the ballot box, we must keep fighting for Palestine, as our spokesperson @cllrbegum explains 🇵🇸

Very timely reminder from @HelenOConnorNHS here to reject liberal feminism.
‘Socialist women of history did not accept that prostitution constitutes “work.” They did not fall for the lie that “bodily autonomy” means capitulating to the pornographic fantasies of men or offering men unfettered access to the bodies of women, girls, children.’
