This is a double betrayal. A broken promise from the Conservatives followed by a shameful cop out from Labour.
First, ripping away what was promised to communities and then using the day of Trump’s inauguration in a shoddy attempt to bury the bad news shows an outrageous disregard for patients.

After the Conservative Party’s disastrous legacy of economic vandalism, the Chancellor needs to go for growth through fairer tax measures that can unleash growth through small businesses, not undermine it.

As a result of conversations with the police/council about off-roading in Campden Green and Olton Jubilee Park, I've been given details of how to report it.
It does work - This very weekend, Solihull Police posted about confiscating off-road bikes in North Solihull.

Are you one of 3.8 million #ExcludedUK first thrown on the scrapheap by Zahawi's Government?
After 3.5 years of silence in Parliament, we need to thank his successor @MP4Stratford for sticking her head above the parapet for our cause.

After furlough was extended to next March, Business Minister Nadhim Zahawi was questioned on #BBCBreakfast about why many freelancers, contractors and self-employed still remain excluded from the scheme.

Given that my nephew was diagnosed with ADHD agred 7, it's pretty fair to say, there was no link to any of those. Why can't people just accept neurodiverse people just are and stopping trying to blame bad parenting?
Heads in hands as Conservative Councillors blame children's ADHD on mobile phones, climate change, gender identity and even pornography 🙄

We are thrilled @EdwardJDavey is dreaming of a No. 1 Christmas hit with 'Love is Enough', a heartfelt song featuring him and a young carers choir.
The song will raise much-needed awareness for the help that is available for young carers.

The Government must urgently start cross-party talks on social care before it is too late.
We know the problems. It's time to get all parties round the table and agree the solutions.

The Conservatives left our dental services to rot, leaving people waiting in pain for basic services.
After years of underfunding by the former Conservative government, the Chancellor has a real opportunity to properly invest in health and care services to save them from breaking point.

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.

Changes to National Insurance employer contributions threaten the ability of many GP practices to maintain the current standard of healthcare they provide to the public.
Will the Prime Minister and Chancellor explain how GPs and charities are expected to manage without additional support?

I don't think I've ever seen such stunned expressions on council officers faces, as when I asked tonight, why did Solihull Council Reserves increase by approximately £5 million between the period 4 and period 6 reports. The response: "We'll get back to you on that...."

This Remembrance Sunday, we pause to honour the courage, sacrifice and dedication of the men and women who selflessly fought to protect our freedom.
Lest we forget.

It was an honour to lay a wreath at St Margaret’s Church Olton @stmolton for rememberance day.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
