Liz Truss is the perfect example of this government’s levelling up policy in action; they won’t let experience, ability or suitability hold you back…

Bring the West Coast franchise back into public ownership. It’s a disgrace laying the entire blame on staff. Staff are entitled to not work rest days, so how is that unofficial action.

The Govt has not done nearly enough to support those who rely on the state pension and are not on benefit. The basic state pension must be increased to match inflation this year to prevent millions struggling to buy essentials.

Shame they are not doing anything to alleviate the impossible situation down Albemarle Road, off of Newmarket Road. Norfolk County Council should implement this new rule there, or make it a one way system.

By far the most important announcement was the one Sunak didn't make. Faced with an energy cost crisis which will plunge 10 million into fuel poverty, Sunak provided nothing to low income households on benefits and pensions. /2

Over 1000 worried older people have written to @RishiSunak about energy bills. This week we delivered their letters to @hmtreasury
We are urging the Chancellor to announce more support for older people in the #SpringStatement next week.
