The Heritage Centre at the Synagogue really is a wonderful, special building. I’m really proud to have supported its development from the very first funding application through to it becoming a reality.

This should not be news.
But after 13 years of Tory Govt it’s news that so-called ‘Low level’ crimes will be investigated.
There’s no such thing as low level crimes - they are not low level to victims.
Under the Tories not enough police on the beat and charging rates collapsed.

RT Yvette Cooper
After 13 Tory yrs, over 90% of crimes go unsolved
Huge drop in % of crimes solved &amp; criminals charged. More criminals get off, more victims let down - abysmal Tory record on law &amp; order.
Labour will boost detective recruitment &amp; put more police on beat

Deadline for having your say on plans to close ticket offices at railway stations across Leics &amp; Rutland has been extended. More below on why I think these plans are bad news for our area and will make people less likely to travel by train 👇

Rory Palmer: Last day to have your say in the (absurdly short) consultation on plans to close railway ticket offices at stations across Leics &amp; Rutland:
🚊Hinckley
🚊Melton Mowbray
🚊Oakham
🚊Loughborough
🚊Mkt Harborough
🚊Narborough
These plans should be scrapped.

Recently had the pleasure of hearing Margaret Beckett reflect on her role and that of Ian McCartney in getting this legislation onto the Statute Book.
Truly landmark, historic legislation.
Labour Governments make a difference.

Re This legislation changed the political and economic consensus for good - no one serious would try to repeal this now.
Not to say there aren’t big challenges in today’s labour market on low pay - there are and they must be tackled by the next Labour Government.

Real action gets real results, and communities must be at the heart of everything we do. Together, as a collective of partners and organisations, we can bring change. 👏🏻💪

Rory Palmer: With massive cuts under the Tory Govt to youth services, school budgets and other local services, so much work and effort to prevent crime and divert young people away from anti-social behaviour and crime has fallen away.
We need to rebuild this.

I visited the @CWGC Thiepval Memorial a few years ago. A majestic, stately memorial that stands with great dignity on the Somme skyline. Very moving to look out across the fields from under the arches.

<div class="rsshub-quote">
CommonwealthWarGraves:  91 years ago, The Thiepval Memorial was unveiled.
The Memorial to the Missing of the Somme bears the names of more than 72,000 officers and men of the United Kingdom and South African forces who died in the Somme sector before 20 March 1918 and have no known grave.
