Labour GAIN from the Conservatives: Congratulations to Richard Parker for West Mids Mayor 🌹, the new Labour Mayor for West Midlands🌹

And they did 💃💃💃

What a day! 🌹 #LabourGain

General Election now

What a great result! Well done to the West Central team

We absolutely love to see it. A Labour mayor who stands with all our diverse communities 🙌

Great result in Southwark and Lambeth for Marina Ahmad AM and Sadiq Khan 🎉

London has voted Labour for a fairer future and rejected the narrative of hate and division. Long may that continue!

Professor Sir John Curtis was up all night for the local election coverage, then back on BBC News in the afternoon, and then on Newsnight last night.

Honestly, the stamina of the man.

We’re going to get distracted by 2000 more council seats today and the mayorals but worth dwelling on Blackpool South

🗳️ massive 26% swing to Labour
🗳️ third biggest swing to Lab in history
🗳️ Conservatives only just beat Reform (by just over 100 votes)

We’ve become used to…

A great #LabourGain in Blackpool South for the brilliant Chris Webb who will be a great local MP ✊🌹

Fantastic result! #LabourGain

A brilliant team getting out the vote right across Berm&OldSthwrkLabour for Sadiq Khan Marina Ahmad AM and London Labour today 🌹

The most transformative government in my lifetime. Incredibly proud to work for him now, and boy do we need a Labour government again to transform society. #ThingsGotBetter and they will again! 🌹

Local election day tomorrow! The results of locals are notoriously hard to read - the headlines will be about numbers of councillors lost, but often the most interesting stories are about *where* those seats are won and lost. Some places to look out for:🧵

Today is International Workers' Memorial Day.
 
Labour’s #NewDeal will empower unions to make workplaces safe, put mental health on par with physical health at work, and ensure the right to safety at work is properly enforced.

Remember the dead, fight for the living. #IWMD
