Another year, but the same old Tories. Fighting amongst themselves but refusing to give the public the General Election we so desperately need because our country can’t afford to go on like this. After 13 years is there anything left they haven’t destroyed?
A cost-of-living crisis, soaring homelessness, councils on the brink of bankruptcy, schools literally falling down and an NHS on its knees without the doctors and nurses it needs.
All they have left are cruel, political gimmicks like the Rwanda Bill, which I voted against again this month. Demonising some of the most vulnerable people for headlines and wasting hundreds of millions of pounds in the process.
We must show them the door and I’m incredibly grateful for our brilliant campaigning CLP, getting the year off to a flying start. We’ve already been out speaking to voters across the constituency and supporting Labour teams across the country from Erewash to Wellingborough, Barnet to Golders Green. Campaigning costs money and I’m grateful to everyone who came to our first fundraiser of the year with Shadow Health Minister Abena Oppong-Asare, Cllr Peray Ahmet and Open Door’s Ruth Glover, talking about the important subject of mental health and women’s health.
Below are just some of the things I’ve been doing this month. Best wishes, Catherine |
