Thanks to this Frizington contingent for putting a red stamp on the village today, as well as delegations at Corkickle and St Bees with our NHS leaflets! 🌹 The NHS cannot survive managed decline under the Tories, and Frizington’s surgery is next on the block.

We're entering tinpot dictatorship territory. This legislation will result in disaster. The government know it will be a disaster. But they know they're on their way out too. Everyone, both inside and outside of Westminster, must prevent it going through.
EXCLUSIVE: Rishi Sunak is poised to announce minimum strike legislation as soon as tomorrow It will enable employers to sue unions and sack employees if they refuse to accept Hearing six sectors covered - NHS, schools, rail, borders, fire, nuclear thetimes.co.uk/article/69f2c…

Gary McKee is probably the biggest name out west. He ran not for himself but for Hospice at Home West Cumbria and Macmillan Cancer Support. There is still time to help Gary hit that £1m target on JustGiving! 👇 justgiving.com/fundraising/t… Well done Gary. We are in awe.🏃
Gary McKee has crossed the finish line! A brilliant way to end the year! Congratulations for completing 365 marathons in 2022, that’s a total of 9,563 miles and raising more than £1,000,000 – a phenomenal feat of grit and sheer determination. Thank you @marathon_man365!

Hi Andrew, we invite you to join us on any picket line in the UK next week to see if this is true. Then we would expect you to immediately correct this tweet 👍
Thousands of #RoyalMail workers are crossing picket lines as support for the Xmas strike action fades. Common sense breaking out as they defy their hard left CWU union

This great policy from a new Labour govt is exactly what West Cumbria needs - warm homes, low bills and lots of good new jobs 👏👏👏
One of the reasons that energy bills are so high is that the Tories have failed over 12yrs to insulate our homes. Labour would deliver a Warm Homes Plan that would help 19m families save up to £1,000 off their bills. It would also create thousands of jobs across the country.

To put in context multi millionaire Nadhim Zahawi threatening nurses & ambulance paramedics with bringing in soldiers to break their strike, it’s worth remembering his expenses claim which included heating his horses’ stables was more than a nurse on starting pay is asking for.

Nadhim Zahawi comparing those overwhelmed with his government’s cost of living crisis, including NHS frontline workers, to one of the most despicable rulers of the 21st century, only reveals his own character. This is your brain on Conservatism.
“Today, another multi-millionaire government minister has chosen to attack ordinary workers whose only crime has been to refuse to take a pay cut. “Nadhim Zahawi's allegation that Britain's nurses, ambulance drivers and teachers are…” @UniteSharon 1/2 unitetheunion.org/news-event…
