We have a declining birth rate and can’t fill job vacancies in the UK.
By the year 2050, 1 in 4 of us will be over 65.
So, is this really where we’re heading as a country?:

From my clear recollection, that's what the old guard said in 1997.
Robin Cook kept pressing for reform and got agreement for this to be debated in our 2nd term in office.
By then it was too late. @Keir_Starmer should press on with his reforms:

Congratulations to @CllrSDixon, Labour’s new MP for City of Chester.

This is a landslide result for Labour - bigger than in 1997 - and Sam has achieved the best result in the constituency’s history.

The message to the Conservatives is clear. It’s time for a Labour government.

Ngozi’s experience of this kind of behaviour will be familiar to many from minority backgrounds.

Sadly, it’s not that rare.
