🚨 Hitachi train factory saved 🚨 After two years of campaigning, we’ve secured the world class Hitachi train plant in Aycliffe. The Tories abandoned the factory and its workers. Keir Starmer promised to secure its future. He’s delivered. thenorthernecho.co.uk/news/2…

I grew up in a council house, I know how important they are. But, over 60,000 people in our region are on the social housing waiting list. I’m working with @AngelaRayner⁩ to make sure we get building and when we do, we build more social housing. chroniclelive.co.uk/news/new…
