Me addressing striking miners in 1984 outside Sheffield City Hall when I was Shadow Transport Secretary.
Will the last person to leave the Cabinet please turn out the lights.
Bit like when you went for the Tory leadership then.

Decided to emulate Jeremy Corbyn today - over estimated my strength and missed the target - thanks to Windlesham Bowls Club for the practice
This is a picture of Jeremy Corbyn addressing a crowd in Gateshead.
We never pulled crowds like this in 1997. #GE2017
The only thing I have in common with Andrea Jenkyns is that we both ended up with egg on our face.
THE worst interview by a politician EVER. I expect & will cover it & it'll be in every newspaper 🤔 twitter.com/ReclaimTheNews
I fully support the #sugartax. £10,000 charged for every stupid tweet and statement Alan Sugar makes. It'll clear the national debt within a year.

I see Andy Coulson has got a new job in PR.
I left him a good luck message on my mobile.
Like millions of others, I voted Labour in the Euros.
Just as I have in every election for the past sixty years.
Never voted for another party.
And I never will.
Because you voted Labour, May has been forced to ditch the vote on bringing back fox hunting.
We saved Freddie the Fox! 🐺#QueensSpeech

Chanting 'Jeremy Corbyn' & holding signs saying 'Tories out' is an incredibly worrying sign for our School systems - how did they get those ideas? Some serious questions must be asked of our schools systems. Where is the diversity of thought or an impartial educational system? twitter.com/josephmdurso/s…
Remember two things about Kelvin MacKenzie.
1) Murdoch has only suspended NOT sacked him
2) The Sun CLEARED & APPROVED MacKenzie's column
The BBC refused to run this clip of Boris doing a terrible interview on their bulletins.
So please RT

Corbyn makes audience laugh with him.
May makes audience laugh at her.

We need a debate on why broadcast media gives Tories like Boris a free pass for a terrible interview but hammer Labour for doing the same.
So the at Ten decided not to run this clip. But the BBC ran Corbyn's Women's Hour footage & Diane Abbott's LBC interview. Biased

You know what I notice campaigning across the country?
Labour delivering a positive message of hope.
And the Tories?
Nothing.
Just fear.
I genuinely believe May could resign within the week.
This is not sustainable.

Hey John Prescott, WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING???? #bbcqt
When you can't even sack a minister who lied to you, you've got to ask what's the point in being Prime Minister?
So . Now Ben Bradley has admitted he falsely smeared Jeremy Corbyn, will you now accept he breached your candidate's code of conduct for insulting a rival and now sack him as your Vice Chairman?
I'm John Prescott and I approve this message.
Especially the last 10 seconds 😉 #studentdebt #torylies #gibbsfibs

In my last ever @TheSundayMirror column I have a message for Labour rebels.
Do us a favour. Shut up and let those who want to fight for the people who need Labour in government to get on with it.
Thanks for the 80th birthday wishes. Enjoying my present, a record player listening to my old jazz records.
Heard from a Tory grandee today. They said their campaign is viewed by senior Tories as 'a disaster.'
Why isn't BBC News Channel taking Corbyn's speech on terrorism live? Sky is.
Here's a thought. Go to your next Cabinet meeting and ask your Chancellor and PM to stop cutting council budgets and bloody well give them more money. #happytohelp

Good to welcome Jeremy to Hull yesterday, making the case for Labour’s Crossrail for the North, which I called for in my Northern Way plan until the Tories scrapped it!
Anyway, I had a little present for him 😂

Hello . Can you tell me why you're not covering Labour's new bus policy of offering free bus travel for under 25s in your bulletins? Seem to recall you gave lots of coverage to Hammond's millennial rail card. 🤔#r4today
Hello . Last week you ignored Labour’s free bus fares for U25s policy launch though all the papers covered it.
Today you’re ignoring Labour’s housing policy launch but leading on a Tory consultation on plastic. Why is this?

How can some MPs rebel against policy in a manifesto that massively increased their majorities, won 30 extra seats & forced hung parliament?
Paxman on the manifesto: "I had to read it!"
Corbyn: "I had to write it!"
Boom!

Why has led it's bulletin with Boris Johnson's childish insult of Corbyn? Is that REALLY the most important story in UK today?
He's been one of the stars of Labour's campaign!
Barry really is the People's Gardiner! #GE2017
So it seems the #QueensSpeech debate has turned in to Corbyn's first PMQs!
He'll be doing it for real in a few months time. 😉

For our Prime Minister to call those who oppose air strikes in Syria "terrorist sympathisers" shows what a shallow opportunist he really is.

In all my years in Parliament - even in the 1970s - I have NEVER seen this. This is absolutely bloody shameful.
I trust Labour MPs will be disgusted by these desperate and heartless Tory tactics, vote against the Government and back the meaningful vote.

Labour sources claim Tories refusing to “nod thru” ill MPs this afternoon.
Conventionally, ill MPs can turn up and stay in car/ambulance in courtyard and be deemed to hv voted. 2 Lab MPs coming from hospital, one on morphine, source claimed.

Honoured to mark John Smith’s passing 25 years ago with his wife Elizabeth, friends and family.
John was a man I greatly admired, whose untimely death was a huge loss to this country but who pathed the way for Labour’s return to Government.
