Brighton was bombed in Second World War and also in my lifetime in a terrorist attack in 1984. As the Leader of Brighton and Hove City Council I am writing to @sussex_police to ask them to investigate this incitement to terrorism published by Rod Liddle & @michaelgove.

You don’t get to give us Liz Truss as Prime Minister, Lee Anderson as Deputy Chair & Suella Braverman as Home Secretary & then lecture the country on extremism. The extremists have been in charge. If Sunak really wants to defend democracy he’d call a #GeneralElectionN0W

Angela Rayner is a giant of the Labour Party. The first Labour woman to serve as Deputy Prime Minister & in just one year unleashed a radical reforming programme from social housing to employment rights & the devolution of power to communities. A superstar & an inspiration.

It was so nice to welcome @Keir_Starmer to #BrightonPavilion today in support of @MrTomGray. I’ve known Keir for 20 years. He has integrity, is kind and fiercely smart. He will be a transformative Prime Minister. Let’s get him elected & turn #Brighton red! 🌹

From today, the majority of foreign university students cannot bring family members to the UK. In 2024, we’re already delivering for the British people.

Wow... Conservative Party political broadcast just now: Ben Bradley says that in Labour-run Councils "you're more likely to have to wait behind non-British nationals for social housing" They're not just the nasty party, they're now sourcing their attacks lines from the BNP.
