NEW: Members of the Co-operative Party have been told that Caitlin Prowle will become interim general secretary

Incumbent Joe Fortune was selected by Labour’s ruling NEC last week to be their GS

Prowle, a former Labour adviser and GMB officer, is the youngest ever Co-op GS at just 28

@Heccles94 Badge of honour.

[Kieran Maxwell @kieranpmaxwell]

I'm absolutely delighted to see @FortuneJF appointed General Secretary of the Labour Party. Joe has the passion, experience and ideas to get the Party where it needs to be - I'm so excited to see how he takes us forward

[Caitlin Prowle @CaitProwle]

proud indeed

[Kieran Maxwell @kieranpmaxwell]

It's true! I'm gutted to have left the brilliant team at @labourunionsuk and I have huge shoes to fill at ASLEF, but I'm really looking forward to getting stuck into this role and working hard to get the very best for our train drivers and our railway 🚄✊🌹

Big news

[Sienna Rodgers @siennamarla]

EXCL: I'm told Cerys Way of train drivers' union Aslef has joined No 10 as director of trade union relations

Kieran Maxwell replaced her this week as political adviser at Aslef, leaving his role at Labour Unions, and he has taken up her seat repping Aslef on Labour's NEC

Particularly like the use of the word “candidature”, the red squirrel to candidacy’s grey.

@Benleo I dunno man, maybe read the article?

[Dom Trendall @Dom_Trendall]

@ThePujaTeli @wesstreeting @BenObeseJecty You replied to a tweet explaining that he was taking that course of action because he had left government ‘very recently’. You asked why he hadn’t told Angela ‘then’.
I was simply pointing out the difference between the two cases.

That’s my point.

[Dom Trendall @Dom_Trendall]

@ThePujaTeli @wesstreeting @BenObeseJecty She left much longer ago

@HugoGye £2 is worth less than it was years ago.

@Benleo @obviousenigma1 @SunPictureDesk Rachel Reeves isn't in government either!

[Dom Trendall @Dom_Trendall]

@christopherhope @GBNEWS Sounds like he's doing plenty of media, good job Jonathan 👍

[Dom Trendall @Dom_Trendall]

He enjoys the confidence of the House of Commons - hope this helps!

[Nile Gardiner @NileGardiner]

You have no democratic mandate.

[David Lammy @DavidLammy]

This disgraceful act took place just days after the murder of a senior politician, the third of my colleagues in a decade.

It is a shared responsibility of all of us in our democracy to call out and condemn violence and threats against politicians.

I hope the Green Party leadership takes appropriate action this time.

Today's Royal Assent for the steel nationalisation bill is huge.

Ministers have saved the UK steel industry.

Now we need commitments to buy British for public infrastructure.

And we need a worker voice on the board of the new nationalised company - to keep British steel alive.

@AIMAberdeen Just as a matter of language, don't you think turning 'encourage' into 'expects' is a tiny bit unfair?

Obviously, you're entitled to support (or not support) whoever you like, no question about that. Hope you enjoy the match, if you choose to watch it!
