Today we've renationalised the UK's largest train operator. Passengers will see fewer last-minute cancellations, cleaner toilets and more services to Gatwick Airport. We are building Great Britis...

Enjoyed chatting to @oliver_wright this week as we took another big step towards building a railway Britain can rely on and be proud of.👇🇬🇧🚆 https://t.co/Ap6Uh40IJ2

Another big rail moment today, as South Western gets its first GBR train. Since coming into public ownership, a new fleet of trains has been rolling out, giving passengers more spacious, comfortab...

It's more than a new look. We're making big changes. In the first 100 days of nationalisation passengers in the south east will see more services, fewer delays and cleaner carriages. Under this...

Kids will go free on buses across England this summer! Schemes like those run by @WestofEnglandCA & @KiMcGuinness have shown what can be done. Parents can plan days out, visit family and mak...

Eagle-eyed train fans have spotted something exciting is coming. I am looking forward to saying more about this later this week...👀🇬🇧🚆

This Government is getting on with the job: we’ve now banned the online bots which have been scraping up driving test slots. This will help to prevent the exploitation of learners and will help to ...

There’s a lot of nonsense flying around at the moment. The PM has my full support in getting on with the job. The only trains I’ve ever spoken to Andy about are those which will run on Northern...

I’d like to thank @jimrobbins for his leadership of the council over the last 3 years. The results in Swindon are not a reflection of anything the Swindon team did. They are a message to people lik...

Today's results are brutal. People want us to deliver the change they voted for in 2024. The last thing we need is to descend into a vanity leadership contest. @Keir_Starmer is clear he will roll...

Great Western Railways services will transfer into public ownership from 13 December 2026. This is another significant moment as this Labour government continues to bring our railway back into pub...

What are the chances of that?! @LabourSwindon were the back drop for the set on @bbclaurak this weekend. Felt like they were literally there with me. https://t.co/uyDUJC3peC

My message to Britain's holidaymakers this summer is simple: we are not currently seeing disruption to jet fuel supplies. But if we do, we've got your back. https://t.co/W7X68SLFbR

Shelling out at the garage to repair pothole damage is no joke - I should know. That's why we're investing record funding to fix Britain's roads, and introducing tough new standards to make sure r...

We're investing record funding to fix Britain's roads. And now we're making sure every penny is spent wisely, making a difference you can see.🕳️🚫 https://t.co/LKwXRy8F2I

We're cutting the cost of charge-point installation. It's never been cheaper and easier to own an electric vehicle. We're acting to support motorists as we see high and fluctuating prices at th...

Real time bus tracking is now live across more of England, via @googlemaps. https://t.co/Y0Zsg5t6pY

@googlemaps And parking shouldn't be a faff, so we're encouraging councils to sign up to our one-stop-shop National Parking Platform to end the app headaches. https://t.co/fqxf6RF9ig

We're making those every day journeys easier. I've announced tap-and-go travel across England's trains, trams and buses as part of a new joined-up transport strategy. https://t.co/fy4tZ5mwx0

Parking your car shouldn't be a faff. We're making it easier. Just one of the changes we're making as part of our Integrated National Transport Strategy, launching later this week.👇 https://t.co...
