We can't protect the public on the cheap. Tory cuts to our police force have made our communities less safe. Find out what has happened in your area: action.labour.org.uk/page/co…

It was great to meet with @RLong_Bailey last week at the @AMRCtraining centre. Institutions like this will be the foundation for our #NewEconomy here in #SouthYorkshire, creating the highly-skilled, well-paid and secure jobs for the future #ForTheManyNotTheFew

Great speech by @RLong_Bailey and great to meet with her recently at the @TheAMRC - we need to ensure that the new economy is fair and values the workforce. We don’t want a race to the bottom. teapawt.net/rlong_bailey/status/96…
Today, the Tories tried to sneak out their long overdue response to the Taylor Review. Like so much from this Government, today’s response is just more words, with no real action to improve the lives of the millions of people in insecure work.
We need more investment in our police - not more cuts. teapawt.net/louhaigh/status/961224…

I couldn’t agree more with this - Britain’s worst employers need to be dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century - we need to deliver a #NewEconomy #ForTheManyNotTheFew teapawt.net/unisontweets/status/96…
The government’s good work plan is no good, it won’t work and it isn’t a plan, says UNISON ift.tt/2FVaxWJ

We need to deliver a #NewEconomy - reversing the tired and broken economic order - away from low wages, minimal rights and zero hours - towards fair pay, job security and training opportunities. This is more important now than ever teapawt.net/francesogrady/status/9…
Govt response to Taylor Review still leaves 1.8 million workers excluded from key protections. And doesn't tackle hire and fire culture in the gig economy.

Great piece here by Jeremy. I campaigned closely with Jeremy and Tony to fight apartheid in South Africa - always committed to #SocialJustice teapawt.net/jeremycorbyn/status/96…
One night, Tony Benn and I sneaked into Parliament to put up a plaque in memory of the suffragette Emily Wilding Davison, whose bravery, along with so many others, helped achieve votes for women. teapawt.net/itvnews/status/9609717…

Last night I was asked by @RobParsonsYP about my views on #OneYorkshire - here they are teapawt.net/robparsonsyp/status/96…
Sheffield City Region mayoral election ‘a stepping stone to Yorkshire devolution’, say Labour hopefuls yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/she…
I proudly served with Barbara Castle - a great woman, who did great work introducing the Equal Pay Act. A proud moment for Labour. Now we need to take #TheNextStep teapawt.net/uklabour/status/960906…
