Bridget Phillipson is MP for Houghton and Sunderland South

Oh this is just brilliant. Encore @AngelaRayner! https://twitter.com/nadinebh_/status/1542148039225348098

Enough is enough.

When will the Tories have the guts to tell this shameless Prime Minister the game is up?

#PMQs

Dominic Raab won’t approve but I did indeed go the opera last week (it cost me £62).

Tom Eisner, a working-class lad from Buxton near where I grew up kindly invited me. He’s been playing violin at Glyndebourne for 36 years.

Never let anyone tell you you’re not good enough. 🎻

The Covid-19 pandemic has had devastating impacts for children

Now the data shows that the government’s failure to deliver an ambitious recovery plan for our children is holding them back

We need urgent action to get support to all children who need it https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/number-young-kids-struggling-speech-27350605

We knew the Tories were high tax low growth. They are also high tax low delivery. From today’s debate on Backlog Britain.

Labour’s commitment to NATO is unshakable. As the Madrid Summit for NATO’s next Strategic Concept begins today, we need this 10 year plan to spell out how the Alliance will respond to increasing threats to our security – a thread 👇

Careers advice opens doors for young people, especially raising the profile of apprenticeships.

Under Labour every child will receive professional careers advice and work experience at school, ensuring they leave education ready for work and for life.

Under the Tories, people are being forced to wait months for passports, GP appointments, A&E treatment and court trials. And summer travel plans are being disrupted.

Labour will tackle Boris Johnson’s backlogs by building a stronger, more secure economy.

Thanks @RachelReevesMP for highlighting the scandal of low pay in the heart of government. They wash their hands of the issue by privatising the work & saying pay is the responsibility of OCS or Mitie etc. Sunak should insist the living wage is paid as a minimum or no contract. https://twitter.com/RachelReevesMP/status/1541756893915389953

Today I called for the Chancellor to pay at least the real living wage for all those who work for government - including contractors.

He refused.

The Tories are choosing to trap people in poverty pay as the cost of living crisis worsens.

Working people deserve so much better.

This is a devastating step backwards for women's rights in the United States.

Every woman who needs one should have the right to a safe and legal abortion.

Solidarity with every woman affected by this cruel decision. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-61928898

Demand an end to Boris Johnson’s Backlog Britain.

Just six weeks ago Ministers feigned outrage at the illegal and unsafe decision to replace P&O workers with agency staff.

Now they’re adopting their playbook.

This senseless plan is a recipe for disaster.

Agencies themselves have said this is unworkable and don’t want it to happen. The Government are willing to ride roughshod over businesses to provoke this dispute rather than act like grown-ups and actually resolve it

Thousands of holiday flights cancelled.
People unable to renew their passports.
Biggest rail strike in a generation.

The Tories simply aren’t doing their job.

#PMQs

This is what a responsible government looks like 👇 https://twitter.com/WelshLabour/status/1539222520532021249

🕰️ There’s less than 24 hours before the rail strike will disrupt the lives of people across the country.

✍️ Sign our petition and tell the Tories to get around the table immediately to avoid the strike.

The Transport Secretary has got some brass neck to be touring the TV studios blaming everyone else for travel chaos 🚂🚌✈️

Fantastic to be back in Wakefield with Labour’s brilliant candidate @SimonLightwood.

This Thursday is Wakefield’s chance for a fresh start.

A chance to send a message to the Tories that they can’t ignore: Wakefield deserves better.

#VoteLabour

The cat is out of the bag.

The @Conservatives would rather provoke this dispute than lift a finger to resolve it. https://twitter.com/paulwaugh/status/1537847979121467393

Last night seems like a long time ago already for this tawdry saga of chaos hand created by our disgraceful Prime Minister but here is some of what I had to say on #BBCQT re the resignation of his ethics advisor. 👇🏽 https://twitter.com/bbcquestiontime/status/1537552284548210693

Britain is home to millions of creative entrepreneurs and start-ups.

But under the Tories, some British businesses are unable to thrive.

The next Labour government will work with businesses to make Britain the best place to start and grow a business.

The idea that schools not only deliver excellent education, but are at the centre of their communities is a powerful one. It speaks to the achievements of Labour in power and the Britain we want to build again. Pleasure to speak @CSTvoice conference this afternoon #TrulyCivic

NHS waiting lists have risen to a new historic high of 6.5 million.

The number of people waiting more than a year for treatment has risen by 16,000.

The longer we give the Tories, the longer patients will wait.

Tens of thousands of rail workers kept our country going during the pandemic.

They and millions of key workers like them want fair pay and respect.

The govt owes it to them and the country to show some responsibility and settle this dispute.

As costs soar, funding of just 7 pence extra a meal is pathetic and will do little to ensure children are getting a healthy, balanced meal. My comment in @DailyMirror👇🏻
