Young people are feeling hopeless because escaping debt and achieving basic goals like owning a home seem like impossible dreams. Labour have shot their ambition and the ambition of working people with their stealth tax rises in this budget.

In a devastating blow to irreplaceable habitats, Lib Dems backed an amendment to the Planning Bill to protect our chalk streams — but it fell because the Tories failed to support it. Their inaction speaks louder than any promise on the environment. votes.parliament.uk/votes/lords/di…

High streets are struggling, with pubs, restaurants and cafés shutting their doors. Cutting VAT on hospitality and energy would put money back in people’s pockets, support local jobs, and give the country a much-needed boost.

Donald Trump expects Ukrainians to be ‘grateful’ as he prepares a carve-up of the country with Putin. We can’t let that happen - Starmer must work with our European allies to stop this stitch-up in its tracks.

Nathan Gill; A traitor who was at the very top of Reform UK, aiding and abetting Russian adversaries, has been sentenced today. Reform UK should be ashamed. Britain deserves better.

My Animal Welfare Bill has passed both the Commons and the Lords! As a vet, knowing this Bill will have a bigger impact on animal welfare than I could possibly have achieved in a lifetime treating individual animals, demonstrates how important this legislation will prove to be.

The news that a national lockdown could have been avoided is shattering. Kemi Badenoch should apologise on behalf of the Conservatives. People will never forgive them for partying while they left the country vulnerable and grieving.

On International Men's Day, we celebrate the positive contributions of men and boys in our society. We also recognise issues disproportionately affecting men's wellbeing. Men continue to face higher levels of rough sleeping, lower life expectancy, and higher rates of suicide.

Our own Shas Sheehan spoke to @BBCBreakfast earlier about the illegal mountain of rubbish currently sitting beside the A34 in Oxfordshire. The Environment Agency urgently needs to use the powers available to it to crack down on the criminal gangs behind these rubbish tips. 👇👇

People are right to be frustrated with the asylum system, but stoking division won’t fix it. The Home Secretary should focus on solutions, not sensationalism.
