Thanks to the BBC for helping to highlight this problem with truckstop capacity causing a nightmare for local people. Still no word from โฆ@transportgovukโฉ after asking โฆ@simonlightwoodโฉ to raise it as a junior minister several months ago

Itโs appalling that the Labour government has kicked into the long grass the rebuilding of Leeds General Infirmary - we wonโt get a look in until 2032! Letโs hope the task force gets us a fairer priority on investment.
"Today, we're forcing a vote to push the government to create a Crumbling Hospitals Taskforce, so we can speed up hospital rebuilding and give communities the facilities they desperately need.". @libdemdaisy

When adults and children with care needs represent a growing proportion of our population it is nothing short of neglect that the government does not prioritise the care sector as part of their economic growth strategy.
When will the Government realise that #socialcare is vital to society AND can help drive economic growth. .
