Vince Barry-Stanners

I'm proud to have backed @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social to be our next Deputy Labour Leader.

She's principled, has a track record of delivery as Education Secretary, and will be a powerful voice who will help unite our party and put members and our values at the heart of the cabinet.

Happy Pride Month from all of us at the Co-operative Party!

This Pride Month, and every month, we celebrate our LGBTQ+ Co-operators and stand with LGBTQ+ communities across the UK. 🏳️‍🌈✊

Love you @sbarrystanners.bsky.social - four years of people calling me Stanners bizarrely 😂

A great afternoon yesterday at the litter pick I helped organise with the local church.

Over 20 bags of litter collected, a MUGA cleared up, and a lovely time getting to know other local people in the sun 🌞

Dan Burn starts for England at Wembley this evening and will make his international debut! 😍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

We’re buzzing for you, Dan! 🫶

Geddon Lads! What a cracking goal - ending the first half on a high. Let's keep it up!

It isn't a problem of "overdiagnosis", it's an issue of systemic lack of resources.

The Co-op is “not a business,” says a Conservative frontbencher. 🤨

The Co-op is a business owned by its customers, who support stronger rights for workers and know that looking after colleagues is good business sense.

Maybe one to learn from?

Council tax is a regressive tax and needs to be overhauled.

Despite this, the result is a disappointment for the global far-right who were hoping for a better result for the AfD.

It's a loss for Trump, for Farage, and for Putin. It is, to that end, also a victory for those who believe in liberal democracy - and a reminder that we can win this fight.

The AfD underperformed in yesterday's federal elections in Germany.

Unfortunately, the reality is that despite the AfD not achieving the result they wanted, they remain a significant threat and will now likely form the first far-right opposition in Germany since Nazi's ascendancy in the 1920s.

This isn't massively shocking; declining living standards caused by populist decisions and governments are bound to have left young people feeling worse off than their parents.

I spoke to the Neighbourhood Police in West Denton & Westerhope today about anti-social behaviour and motorbike disorder in the area.

If you have any concerns about non-emergency crime, make sure to report it to 101 so it can be logged and used as evidence to inform police operations.

Was a bit of a blistery #LabourDoorstep in West Denton today, but it didn't put us off!

Preach 🙌🏼

The amount of games in my Steam library I haven't played is sad.

It's that time of year again! #MerryWoofmas

With America in retreat from the global stage & Germany/France too divided to lead, is this the moment Britain once again comes to the forefront as a global player and leader of the democratic world?

In that we love cute small furry things? Because yes, yes we are.

Couldn't ask for a better mam.

I've had a fantastic day getting into the festive spirit at the Westerhope Community Association and Church of the Holy Spirit Christmas fairs today.

A massive thank you to the staff & volunteers who worked incredibly hard to make these events happen - and for all the work they do year round too!

Proud to be a cooperator. Give a follow to the biggest political party you've (probably) never heard of 👇🏼

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

Lest we forget.
