.@AngelaRayner wiped the floor with Dominic Raab at #PMQs. Tax rises, struggling families and broken promises - how much more will Tory MPs tolerate before they tell Boris Johnson enough is enough.
Enough is enough.
When will the Tories have the guts to tell this shameless Prime Minister the game is up?

The Energy Bill is coming soon.
After the Conservatives' decade of failed energy policy, this is an opportunity to cut bills for families, boost green energy to tackle the climate emergency, and deliver energy sovereignty for the UK
Here are 5⃣ things the Bill must do:
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.
We also met with @SeemaMalhotra1 recently to discuss our monitoring of customer satisfaction and behaviour through #UKCSI, ESG themes, but also our #servicewithrespect campaign to protect customer service – law changed today to make assaults aggravated in sentencing
This shocking attack has hit the local community hard- our thoughts and prayers are with Karamjeet and his family. I’ve been in touch with the police over the weekend - please come forward if you have any information that could help the investigation.🙏🏼

In the face of this dark post-Roe reality, I have three words: Hold onto hope. Do not give into despair. Here’s how I’m staying in the fight:
This is about women’s health and their safety. This won’t stop abortions, it will just put women at risk. We must not see the clock turned back on women’s rights and we stand with progressives fighting back. #RoeVsWade
Restricting women’s access to safe and legal abortion puts women’s lives and safety at risk.
As Labour’s Health Secretary, I will always support a woman’s right to choose.
Solidarity with women across the USA fighting back. https://twitter.com/ewarren/status/1540345157282922496

So proud of Wakefield’s new MP, the fantastic @simonlightwood.
This was @UKLabour’s biggest victory here since we were last in government.
This decisive result shows Labour is winning the trust of the British people, and firmly on the path to power.
Huge congratulations to @SimonLightwood - Labour’s new MP for Wakefield!
A historic victory — this city deserved a fresh start, and you delivered it.
Wakefield is the birthplace of the next Labour government.
Head to Wenzel's at The Centre Feltham and try their delicious new Cherry Bakewell Croisnut! 🍒
Do your job. https://twitter.com/SkyNews/status/1539140544005296130?s=20&t=gnPAWvW7pXlduiZ33_EOBA

NEW: Inflation up at 9.1% today.
Inflation is pushing family finances to the brink - but the low wage spiral many face isn’t new.
It’s a result of a decade of Tory mismanagement of our economy.
Labour will build the high wage, high growth, stable inflation economy we deserve.
October 2021: Boris Johnson told us inflation is nothing to worry about.
June 2022: Boris Johnson’s government oversees surging inflation, soaring food prices, and stagnating wages.

Under the Conservatives, working people are facing a nightmare summer of travel chaos.
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

This Conservative Government’s Bill of Rights con is an attack on women.
It will make it harder for victims of rape to get justice.
But it comes as no surprise from a Govt that has effectively decriminalised rape.
Just such devastating news especially with so many ongoing challenges faced by Afghanistan. The international community needs to do its bit and to help ensure the aid and relief is able to reach those affected. 🙏🏼

First up at today’s PMQs is @CPJElmore who asks whether the Prime Minister has ever sought advice on how to appoint his now wife to a taxpayer funded position? #PMQs 🔥
Grant Shapps could have avoided these #RailStrikes. Instead, he put his feet up and didn't spend a single second in negotiations with @RMTunion.
It was clear from the outset that he wanted these strikes to happen, to deflect from @BorisJohnson's corruption & incompetence.
Great to catch up with Jo Causon from @instituteofcs this morning.
We spoke about the Service with Respect legislation coming into force next week and their research on the positive economic impact of good customer service.

Watching Tory Ministers out on the media trying to push division and half truths is utterly depressing when they should be showing leadership and getting unions and management round the table to find a solution. That’s what a serious Govt would do. @BBCNewsnight

We must not forget or turn our backs on those at risk in Afghanistan. For years I have been raising the risks Afghan Sikhs and Hindus face and how they have to flee for their lives. This is yet another horrific and cowardly attack with heartbreaking consequences. 🙏🏼
Appalled by the cowardly terrorist attack against the Sikh Community & Gurdawara in Kabul, claimed by ISKP. I condemn all such violence and efforts to sow division amongst Afghans, and offer our sincere condolences to all the victims’ families & those affected.
It’s 8 years this week since we lost my father to cancer. Thinking of him today, as every day. ❤️
