🚨WOW! And have I mentioned that it’s in Stratford… 🪩A whopping £2.06billion to the UK economy. 🪩For every £1 into ABBA Voyage, £5.70 goes out to the broader economy, helping everyone from hotel staff & chefs to local taxi drivers. 🪩Supporting almost 10,000 jobs across UK!
ABBA Voyage has been an absolute sensation. Since it opened, it has drawn visitors from around the globe, filled restaurants and hotels, and given ABBA fans an unforgettable night out. It has once again shown why London is the music capital of the world. https://t.co/6qoLdiVGFh

Time to offer young people more hope. They want to work. They want to learn. That's why we are bringing forward our Youth Guarantee offering more training and more jobs, backed by £820m of Government funding.

Pat McFadden says they would need a "good reason" to decline one of 55,000 new work placements.

4.5 million children in the UK grow up in poverty. Three quarters of them from working families. How can they achieve their potential when they are skipping meals, or going to sleep in a cold bedroom? I will not stand by and watch that happen. We are acting now to lift those

Labour's Budget is for every street in Britain. 👉 Cutting energy bills 👉 Lifting children out of poverty 👉 Rebuilding public services While our opponents hide behind cheap, divisive politics, we're getting on with the job: changing Britain.

Carers Allowance Overpayments Review is truly jaw-dropping. Years of abject failure from DWP to treat carers with fairness or compassion is appalling. All credit to @CarersUK for tireless campaigning. And @stephenctimms for commissioning the review and accepting recommendations.
Major news in the campaign to stop the Carers Allowance Overpayments scandal: https://t.co/IzM0DXoo05 The Government have published the independent review by @lizsayce and its response. Read the review: https://t.co/cU7gt5bFQH Thank you to everyone who campaigned with us.

It was good to meet with @stephenctimms again this morning to discuss the Govt’s plans for an asbestos census. ⚠️📜 I’m pleased to say that the Minister is hopeful that an effective census of asbestos prevalence in public buildings will be in place by next September. @Mesouk
