You voted against scrapping zero hour contracts. You voted against banning fire and rehire. You voted against day one sick pay for workers. You said the minimum wage was too high for young people. Reform politicians openly say they don't like trade unions. You will always put the interests of your offshore crypto billionaire donors ahead of workers.
Reform is now the party of workers. Today I am inviting trade unions to apply for affiliation with Reform UK. We also welcome union leaders to attend our national conference in September and engage in discussions about the policies of a future Reform government.

Reform UK isn’t the party of workers ❌ Voted against workers’ rights ❌ Would cut thousands of public sector jobs ❌ Scrap the Equality Act ❌ And weaken NHS & social care staffing Their tax plans benefit the richest most—like their millionaire backers unsn.uk/4omj1g4

I am proud and humbled to have been selected as Labour’s candidate for Makerfield. These proud working-class communities represent the very best values of our country and they deserve so much better. It would be my honour to work for them every day, if elected as their MP, to achieve that. Many people here feel Westminster isn’t working for them and they are right. I am standing to change that and get the voice of these communities heard loud and clear. I am glad that this by-election has finally put the places that make up the Makerfield constituency into the national spotlight. They have been neglected by national politics for too long. It is a good thing that all political parties are now on the hook to tell the voters here what they are going to do for them. More than anything, people need life to be more affordable again. As Mayor, I have brought in changes which are helping, such as the £2 fare cap, free bus travel for our 16-18 year-olds and removing the 9.30am restriction from older and disabled people’s bus passes. But there is only so much I can do from Greater Manchester. If elected, I will have a relentless focus on reducing people’s everyday costs and bills and well as securing the investment these communities need. I have been an elected representative in Greater Manchester for 25 years. Throughout that time, I have fought for the people of the North West of England on so many fronts. I am now ready to bring the whole weight of that experience to fighting for the communities of the Makerfield constituency and would be privileged to be given that opportunity.

Twelve years serving Bloomsbury leaves me with a heart full of stories & I end this chapter by writing one of them for @NewJournal Thank you, for the space to reflect. It’s been a privilege, a joy & occasionally worn‑out soles & many multistorey buildings without lifts 😜

Proud to campaign for @LambethLabour and the wonderful @podofficial @DavidRobson84 @lindabray. It’s a choice between three hard working local Labour candidates, or an endorsement of the epicentre of the Green Party’s racism scandal. Vote Labour on Thursday 7th May🌹
Fantastic conversations across Clapham Town this bank holiday weekend. Multiple Tory and Green switchers are backing our hardworking Labour team so we can continue delivering and unite our community. Vote Labour on Thursday 7 May 🌹

Another Lambeth Green Party candidate has shared racist & antisemitic content. We are writing to @ZackPolanski & @GreenPartyScott for the 5th time. Just yesterday, they delivered ‘Vote Sabine Mairey & Mark Bittlestone’ leaflets in Clapham, both of whom have shared this content.

.@ZackPolanski said this morning these candidates aren’t welcome in his party. So why is Sabine Mairey - arrested for antisemitism on Thursday - still out campaigning with them in Lambeth? telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/04…
