ICYMI: Here are just some of the announcements from the Budget this week 👇

Labour is the party of the economy again. Voters overwhelmingly back the Budget, according to a new poll from Savanta. 5 eye-catching takeaways:

Absolutely have to call-out Isobel Oakeshott. To say benefit claimants are 'parasites', sit on the sofa, drive their 'free motability' is completely outrageous. At Scope we call out ableism. Call out discrimination. And to not let language like this go unchecked. Shame.

"These people are, frankly, parasites." Isabel Oakeshott's views on people who claim benefits belong in the past. This kind of sentiment is disgraceful. And fuels a dangerous narrative towards disabled people that we must stand against.

I think Isabel Oakeshott should know 72% of destitute households rely on social security, yet still face destitution because the basic rate is too low to lift them above the threshold. 62% of people experiencing destitution are disabled. 4 million people live in destitution.

Did anyone who voted Labour not want them to tax the rich, invest in the country, and spend huge amounts of money improving the NHS and the education system?

The Times splashes on the views of James Dyson who thinks the Budget is really unfair to people like him. That’s a billionaire who backed Brexit then moved his firm to Singapore - and owns more than 30k acres of UK farmland. But you wouldn’t know any of that from this article.

From supporting Ukraine, to boosting growth and creating a more prosperous Europe, we need to work together with our European partners. I am delighted to accept Paschal Donohoe's invitation to join December’s Eurogroup meeting in Brussels with Finance Ministers from across the EU.

The Rail Public Ownership Bill has now been passed by the Welsh and Scottish Parliaments 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🚝 This will allow both Governments to keep their services under public ownership – and is a big step forward on our shared ambition to deliver for passengers in Scotland and Wales.

An important reminder today for Londoners: our city is—and will always be—for everyone. We will always be pro-women, pro-diversity, pro-climate and pro-human rights. These are some of the values that will continue to bind us together as Londoners.
