This reckless Tata-Tory bad deal for steel will devastate our local community by exporting well-paid jobs from Port Talbot to India. The alternative Multi-Union Plan - supported by Labour - is a detailed, serious, robust and compelling proposal for the future of our steelworks.

. @Roy_Rickhuss is absolutely right: Tata’s callous proposals and high-handed approach are completely unacceptable.

Our General Secretary @Roy_Rickhuss spoke to @BBCWalesNews about the breakdown of talks with Tata today. Tata's proposals are completely unacceptable & we will be consulting members on our next steps. #SaveOurSteel #WeNeedOurSteel

It was great to be out in Milton Keynes (Danesborough & Walton ward) campaigning for our outstanding #Labour candidate Rukhsana Malik. Really warm reception for Rukhsana on the doorsteps, and for Labour’s positive and transformative change agenda 👍👍👍

The Tata-Tory bad deal for steel saw the UK Govt hand £500m to Tata, who are making up to *9,500* steelworkers & supply chain contractors redundant. So what conditions did the UK Govt ask Tata to sign up to on preserving jobs, in exchange for £500m? No answer from the Minister:

Experts have confirmed steel job losses could ⬆️ from 2,800 to 9,000, once contractors & supply chains included. Reckless Tory-Tata deal must be dropped, & the multi-union plan adopted. I urge Tata & UK Govt to save these jobs by choosing bridge to the future, not a cliff edge.

Great to visit Margam Castle to hear about exciting plans to renovate parts of the castle. A fascinating building with a rich history & these plans would give it a new lease of life. Delighted to have supported their bid for funding & look forward to seeing this project progress

Workers at #PortTalbot are at risk of redundancy because this government lacks the ambition to back our steel industry, as @UKLabour has pledged to do. The Welsh Secretary has said "no one will be left behind" if jobs are lost. I will hold him to account every step of the way.

2800 steelworkers in Aberavon have given their all to an industry underpinning our economy & security, yet face losing their jobs - as is true of thousands more contractors in supply chain. Welsh Secretary has promised no worker will be left behind. We'll be holding him to this

This latest farce exposes the total lack of grip the Conservatives have over the asylum system and the chaos of their Rwanda policy. Labour has a plan to reverse the Tory collapse in removals with a 1000-officer returns unit and to smash the criminal smuggler gangs.

How will the Tories fund their £46bn a year commitment? Currently this money goes to fund pensions and the NHS. My colleague @JonAshworth here putting the questions the Tories can’t answer.

What the Home Secretary mysteriously fails to mention is that returns of foreign national offenders and failed asylum seekers have fallen by 27% and 44% respectively since Labour left office in 2010....🤨🤔

Each year April 28th marks International Workers Memorial Day, a day of remembrance for workers who have lost their lives at work. Today my thoughts are with those who tragically lost their lives or were injured in the blast furnace disaster at Port Talbot steelworks in 2001.

First we had Thèrése Coffey not knowing that Kigali is the capital of Rwanda, and now we have Chris Philp not knowing that Congo is a different country to Rwanda… They're sending £576m to a country they can’t even pick out on a map… 😳
