Leading our bumper weekend package this week is one of our core campaigns: social care. This won’t generate huge clicks for us, it is a difficult, complex issue but we feel strongly that those who need care and those who offer care are being let down. #WhoCares

A panacea it was not... Energy announcement analysis for @yorkshirepost yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/pol…
Liz Truss announcement offers little short term sugar, and plenty of long-term pain

Liz Truss announcement offers little short term sugar, and plenty of long-term pain

There was never going to be an easy way out of the energy crisis for Liz Truss. As massive fiscal spending goes, this was always unlikely to have the popular, easy-to-understand appeal of Rishi’s...

Everything we know so far as new Prime Minister Liz Truss sets out energy plans in major announce...

Liz Truss has today announced a multi-billion pound intervention on the energy market aimed to stop families being left unable to pay bills and businesses going bankrupt.

Always found it interesting when Liz Truss has said she supports fracking where there is local support for it. Wherever specific sites have been proposed in Yorkshire and elsewhere previously, they’ve always been met with concerted campaigning trying to stop them.

What the first #PMQs tells us about how the relationship between the two leaders could pan out yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/pol…
After PMQs the populist baton is free to be picked up - if Labour wants to

After PMQs the populist baton is free to be picked up - if Labour wants to

The stakes tend to be high for new prime ministers. Especially those anointed half way through election cycles, with only someone else’s mandate behind them.

I’ve had a sneak peek of this letter. If the PM wants to do right by this region, then she should pin it on the wall of her office as a reminder of the task at hand. – at Dewsbury, England

And, so: this is it. a very special new publication that is crafted by a relatively small group of people who care passionately about the county and those who call it home. With your support, we can resist the siren calls of the clicks that have lured so many onto the rocks. 🙏🏼
