Reeves takes aim at Farage: “The member for Clacton may be playing the friend of the workers now but some of us are old enough to remember when he described the disastrous Liz Truss budget as the best Conservative budget since the 1980s” #spendingreview

The right-wing press have tried to whip up a moral panic over a 'millionaire exodus' from the UK due to tax policies. After reviewing the evidence, the Tax Justice Network finds that millionaire migration rates consistently stood at near-0% for every year.

Self-proclaimed 'man of the people' Nigel Farage rules out taxes on the wealthy and claims that wealthy entrepreneurs are leaving the UK as a result of taxes. The reality? Tax Justice Network have found that just 0.3% of the UK's millionaires left the UK in 2024.

🚨 NEW: Labour is lifting 100,000 children out of poverty by expanding access to free school meals. Alongside free breakfast clubs, cheaper uniform costs and government-funded childcare, Labour is putting money in parents’ pockets and giving children the best start in life.

Diversity, equality and inclusion matters, not only because it's vitally important that institutions and organisations reflect the communities they serve, but also to ensure all can thrive irrespective of background It's not identity politics to ensure equality of opportunity

‘When you’re used to privilege, equality feels like oppression’

The irony of Tories lecturing the public about a ‘broken social contract’ when the last Tory government came to be defined for breaking the law and showing complete contempt for rules that they expected everyone else to follow.

We're the sixth-largest economy in the world, and yet the UK is also among the worst nations in Europe for child poverty. We have got to do better.

The UK is among the worst nations in Europe for child poverty. In the UK, 11% of 15-year-olds reported they had skipped a meal in 2022 because there wasn't enough money to buy food. In the Netherlands and Finland, this number was 3%. https://t.co/dxjUA1DIWH
