#Lionesses
We must fight to end inequality in funding & support women & girls football at grassroots as well as on the international stage.
Content like this should be shut down and misogyny should be made a hate crime.
@tiktok_uk & @Conservatives failing our kids once again.
Online Safety Bill review paused until Autumn - whilst Tories focus on themselves.
More interested in soundbites than protecting our kids.
The @Conservatives don't care if you can't afford your energy Bills.
They don't care that 38% of kids in Jarrow are living in poverty.
They don't care you can't afford 11% increase in food costs.
They don't care if the "bodies pile high".
They do not care about UK families.
Most of us are worried about how to pay for this months gas bill and the weekly food shop - but fear not the FT has some handy advice....
...Actually what we need is for all subsidies for rich private schools to be stopped....

I fully support the campaign to save our Green Space in #Boldon. #DiscoField is a wonderful open space with an abundance of wildlife which in my view shouldn't be destroyed
Our community feel strongly about protecting these parks for themselves and for future generations.
Credit cards, bank loans, car finance, food prices - all so much higher than this time last year.
Energy bills predicted to hit £300 a month in October.
Inflation at 40 year high, heading into a recession.
Britain didn't slide into crisis - its been pushed there by this Gov.
More proof that talk of Levelling up was lies and empty rhetoric.
Stripping out money from our "deprived areas" northern communities to give to their already wealth mates.
The Tories do not care about our kids or our country.
Pleased to be able to watch an incredibly moving play from @chessmartinez at The National Theatre last night.
Powerful with some laughs thrown in for good measure, and a real insight into what people are are currently going through.

Food poverty is a political choice, this Gov push more ppl into poverty every day.
Huge thanks for the work foodbanks & @TrussellTrust do.
We need a long term solution to hunger - it's not right that a trip to the foodbank is now a normal part of families lives.
#RightToFood
📣 In April and May this year, the food banks in our network provided more than 420,000 emergency food parcels to people facing hardship.
That's one parcel every 13 seconds.
This isn't right ⤵️

Today is #RomaHolocaustMemorialDay a day to commemorate the hundreds of thousands of Roma & Sinti killed by Nazi's.
Too often the GRT community are left out when people remember and talk about the Holocaust.
Let's make sure they are commemorated & all discrimination eradicated.

To the Govt, levelling up is nothing more than empty rhetoric designed to win votes.
But in the Jarrow constituency we can use levelling up funding to create a greener constituency that celebrates our past & invests in our future
My letter to the Secretary of State👇
What a disgrace.
Hands off our pickets.
Solidarity @GMB_union
Once again police being used as strike breakers by private companies that would rather use those tactics than negotiate an end to strike action...
📹TODAY @Ameyplc misuse @SurreyPolice resources at Surrey Heath depot to ARREST @GMBSouthern officers from lawful picket line 🎬
Annual energy bills of £3,850, tripled since the start of 2022.
Yet the energy companies keep raking it in - BP making 14.7BILLION profit, a 14 year high.
We need to end this profiteering and nationalise energy.
Yesterday's @shieldsgazette
Still proud of our #lionesses Women's football is recovering from FA banning us playing in 1921 - yet only 63% of schools currently offer girls’ football in PE.
We must continue to fight to end funding inequality & support women's grassroots football
I support the campaign by @BreastCancerNow in raising the Faster Diagnosis Standard to 95%.
Breast Cancer patients need firm action to address backlogs, bring down waiting lists and improve pathways to treatment.

On the picket line this morning @DaveWardGS "this is what proper Labour MPs do. Support working people"
Nice one @KateOsborneMP
#Solidarity
BT & Openreach staff face in-work poverty. Disgracefully a North East BT call centre has set up its own foodbank to support staff - yet the CEO has pocketed a £3.5mil bonus...
I'm proud to stand in solidarity with @CWUnews BT & Openreach members as they demand a REAL pay rise✊
Great to have @KateOsborneMP on the picket line with our BT and Openreach members at BT Tower #FoodbankPhil
Inspiring a generation 👏
Well done #Lionesses you are all amazing.

Really great work @IanByrneMP on right to food campaign.
38% of kids in the Jarrow constituency are trapped in poverty and facing holiday hunger - it’s the duty of Government to ensure that no child goes hungry - yet they have failed.
We need more campaigners like @IanByrneMP
Brilliant work Lisa and Cumberland council in declaring themselves a #RightToFood area. We look forward to working with you all to deliver a change in legislation to challenge the poverty in our communities.

The core aim of this bid is to invest in a low carbon community - ensuring that we celebrate our industrial heritage whilst paving the way to a greener future.
Levelling up in the Jarrow constituency needs more than just empty govt rhetoric - we need real investment 👊
https://www.shieldsgazette.com/news/people/south-tynesides-cash-bid-a-chance-for-the-government-to-show-levelling-up-pledge-is-more-than-just-an-empty-slogan-3785647
Council preparing to submit its latest bid for a share of the government's £5 billion Levelling Up Fund.
Regional inequality continues to worsen with gap in spending between London and the North doubling.
Our bid will invest in our industrial heritage whilst paving the way for a greener future ✊
The governments Levelling Up pledge needs to be more than just an empty slogan.
Could Jarrow and South Shields be in for a boost with #LevellingUp cash?
6,000 council houses across Gateshead are waiting for repair - we meet one woman withholding rent until work is completed.
@AmySuttonITV has Friday's headlines ⬇️
Last year BT took £1.3bn in profits, gave £750mil to shareholders & the CEO took £3.5mil.
Workers got a below inflation pay increase & many are using foodbanks.
A clear e.g. of corporate greed.
Solidarity to the 40,000 @CWUnews BT & Openreach members on strike today ✊
British Gas owner Centrica has seen an 5 x increase of profits to £1.34 billion.
Yet we are paying 3x more than they were this time last year (annual bills of £3,850!)
We need action now.
